    New from Nashville

    I traded a Mustang Mach 1 for a 2005 Magnum R/T in Brilliant Black with almost every option. Yes, 2005. It was still on the lot at a dealership in the middle of nowhere -- got it for a bargain (IMHO, but I could be wrong )

    I've never had a Dodge, I've always driven Mustangs. I have no real compliants, but I'll probably be hangin out looking for advice on modding (like how to make the handling a bit more "tight" etc.)

    I'm a MOD on a Mustang board -- and will remain a Mod there -- but this will be a new experience for me. :D

    Thanks for the welcome. I'll miss the Mach -- lot of sentimetal value. However, I'm married with three kids -- and decided I needed something they could fit in too. Magnum was the only thing I really considered. It needed power be Muscle Car like. Not many things out there that fit that bill.

    I'll get another Mustang sometime, but it'll be a 79-84 or a 65-72.

    Its like starting over honestly. I know Mustangs inside and out, and I'll be honest, don't know a thing about hemi's or Dodges really. But, that's why I'm here -- to learn.

    You DID get a great deal - I got mine the same way 2 months ago....

    Any leftover 2005 models went on fire sale recently... they are not selling because of the price of gas I suppose - and the Magnum's sales have hit the skids...

    You my friend (and I) were in the right place at the right time.

    And now... You have found the pandoras box that is this forum... with our help ... in one week... you will loose all memory of that previously owned non-Hemi vehicle.

    Enjoy!

    Thanks again for the weclomes. No, definetely not a spy.

    I only have two regrets. I wish I had all the money I spent on the Mustang back to spend on the Mag, and that the tuner I have wasn't just for Fords. :D
