Default Wife surprised me with a new car ..... for her.... Dodge Guys Rejoice!

I was planning to take her to Vegas for a shitload of a good time for her birthday which was on 7/14.

INSTEAD:

Well after many years of being a stay at home mom my daughter starts kindergarten and the wifey wants a new ride to work that will not be slower than her GTP or my vette.






I took pictures for her of a new camaro while getting some wiring fixed in the vette at Van Chevy yesterday.



She wanted the new camaro but she has to have a four door
for the kiddos.

As long as she is happy..... and gets a job when my daughter starts Kindergarten!

She didnt want to step back from the GTP. I took it for a spin and it has some really nice pep in it. She seems pretty happy. So I guess I am too!

I like it. I would've tried to get her to go for a G8 but the Charger is nice.

Any reason she chose that over a G8? I like chargers, they look mean. Also where is her inspection sticker?

Very nice, but what happened to keeping it in the family with a G8?

I woulda only wanted a GXP G8 and those are around 40k..... way to much to pay for a car that isnt a C6Z06 IMO. She likes the car...I like her...... end of statement. I don't think most folks have a girl that is 1/2 as cool as mine...

I still need to get the Tahoe cleaned up and on autotrader.com.

On the way home from the inlaws a few minutes ago she just beat my C5 from a 60 punch on I-20...... Took till around 85ish for her to start pulling me though.

what do you know about water restrictions? Schertz isn't on the aquifer so we have none



thats a badass SRT bro! I bought my SRT used, so I couldn't be too picky on color but if I was shopping around it would have been for a black one

This one is used as well.. Hard to find them in DFW under $30k... this one has 22k miles on it. Not bad. Atleast If I keep the truck she can keep the miles off it and keep the value up a bit. I dont think she will be changing vehicles for atleast the next 3-4 years.

I hate that texas has a front plate law, the font end of that car looks so mean and clean.
