We use the forum to talk to each other and have about 2 - 3 GTG each year. You just missed one, and so did I, on Oct 9th. I am in St Cloud, most are from the twin cities area. Just watch and post on the forum to meet the others or back track through this thread.

Where are you from, year, color, type, pictures and many more questions. Add to your profile and jump in.

Hi Chryguy, welcome to the forum. What part of Minnesota are you from? What kind of Crossfire do you have? Color? We all will most likely be getting together in the Spring. If you subscribe to this thread, you can get e-mail notification on any new posts. That's probably the best way to stay on top of things. Take Care, Steve.

I'm from the Plymouth area bordering Maple Grove. I have a 2006 black Crossfire LTD Roadster with the charcoal and cedar two tone interior. I have updated my profile. I retired from Chrysler 3 years ago after working for them 27 years as a Regional Account Executive for large commercial fleet. I now work part-time(when I want to) as the National Account Executive for a small shortline railroad.
Is this the thread I need to be part of for future notices or is there another address I should contact???

Hey Bruce,

I'm kinda glad your hanging on to your Crossfire- we'd miss your wisdom on these cars! I've been meaning to upgrade my headlights to the HID's as well- what brand/company did you go with on yours?

Also, I'm still running with the stock battery, but I know its only a matter of time. Do you have the Optima battery # you got (that fits)?

Thanks!

I just sold the Crossfire yesterday. I was really sorry to see it go but I have plans that require the garage slot it occupied. The Optima was a 34 series red top. It had both the top lugs and the side connections. It was all they had on the shelf at Napa but it worked fine. I did have to put a small rubber spacer under the hold down as the battery was just a tad low.

It had to happen - the first snow of the season. I quess we were on borrowed time being mid November without any snow.

Since I am not one to put my Crossfire away for the winter, I am once again forced to learn how to drive in snow. It will be my Crossfire's third winter.

Happy Thanksgiving!

(Don't eat too much so you can fit back into your Crossfire.)

I'm in St. Paul, so when's the next GTG? I have an SRT and I wanted to enter Mopars in the Park next weekend in Farmington. Does anyone know what class to enter? Will I just get shunned because of the Mercedes relation? The car is slightly modified.

We should do a GTG this summer! Let's get it started.

BTW, saw Eikon on 61 the other day, looking sharp dude.

I can usually make Sundays - have to work Saturdays. Let's set something up!

Good to be seen, even if my Crossfire is so dirty, but with our recent monsoon season it is hard to keep it clean.

Saturday or Sunday is good for me.

Nice to hear from you, Jim and Chris. I can do a Sunday for Steve's benefit . I know the weekend of 7/28, so that would be Sun 7/29 we're here in town and free.

Unfortunately I will be out of town the last weekend in July. Will be at a high school reunion.

Would you folks want to meet at Wagners Drive in in Brooklyn Park? Or the Galaxy Drive inn in St. Louis Park? Around noon? On Sunday July 29th? Might be fun to just look at the cars and have a little lunch. I'm open to other ideas too!

Sounds good, I'm in. If you guys wanna do the WhiteBear/Brookside Bar again in August, we could set that up too.

Ok, how about the Galaxy Drive Inn in St. Louis Park at noon on Sunday the 29th. It's kind of a cool place, just Google "Galaxy Drive Inn" MN and you'll find it. They open at 11 am on Sundays, and we could get a nice lunch and BS for a while. What do you think?
