It's not another SRT6 but it get gets about 29mpg on the highway and 21mpg in the city. It's a 2007 Chevy Malibu Maxx in silver. It has remaining factory warranty, power everything except moonroof (which I'm actually happy about since they always leak), looks sharp and it is deceivingly very roomy inside for being a smaller car. Ended up letting the Jeep go and just a fluke deal but the guy that owned it was in desperate need for a 4x4 for up north so he really worked with me on the price. I'm excited to see above 20mpg again since it's been a couple years since I've had a vehicle that was capable of doing that... Let me make a correction, the SRT can get 20+ on the highway so long as I'm not the guy driving it. LOL It has this handy little economy display and that will probably end up being somewhat of a game I play to see how high I can get it and how long I can keep it there. Something I noticed immediately was ingress/egress was exactly like my old Caliber where you sit up a little higher than in a normal car making it a lot easier. I also like the room it has in the back when you flip down the seats. No joke, you could fit a whole Crossfire in there!

Anyways, I've only had it for a day so only time will tell if it was a sound investment as far as cars are concerned. Even with that SRT that Franc turned me onto being a screaming deal, this one was even better and I just couldn't pass it up. It's nice driving something again that actually has responsive handling since the SRT6 has been in the garage since Thanksgiving and the Jeep felt like you were atop an old lumber wagon.


(This one isn't mine but it looks the same save not having any snow under the tires)

 

Does the heater work on this one?

 

This one has the warm and cold thing figured out just fine my friend. Much better than the old Jeep did last time you were in town.

 

Very nice family/commuter car you got there Rudy! Save yourself alot of tickets and unwanted attention driveing that. Thats why I like my 4 door golf. no one ever looks twice at it.

 

I was looking at a few 1.9L TDI Passats and then I found this for about a third of the price. The VWs are very nice though and you get what you pay for with them.

 

LOL!

The station wagon that GM forgot to finish.

I find this funny, as I have been kinda looking for one of these ugly ducks.

 

It's NUNorific.......

 

Get one Greg, then we can start a MN MAXX club too.

 

 

Looks like something a nun would drive...

 

Only if they were on a mission from god!

 

But, Rudy:

where do you plug the FUN in?

 

It needs some stickers and a fart can. Maybe some slasher stripes.

Then it will get noticed


roadster with a stick

 

You can't just jump in this one and start having fun... You have to tip the back seat forward for that.

 

And speaking of which...

did you know that the record for "Most Cars Destroyed in a Movie Production"

was recently broken?

Old record: (of course) The Blues Brothers.

New record: G.I. Joe

Sometimes, progress isn't justified...

 

Final Jeopardy Question... What are three things that will never be on my car?

 

Three little words:

Four

Twenty

Seven

will get that noticed. You seem to have the room for it...

 

-22" chrome 150 spoke,
-roof spoiler,
-CB antenna.

I can keep guessing alll night. !

 

This thread went to the sh*tter rather quickly.

 

Well, what did you expect? Kiss, kiss!
