    I have a few questions

    1. Should I put in an order or wait until the Plum Crazy comes out and hope they come down in price?

    2. Should I keep the chrome clad wheels on the PC or should I swap them for the ones I have now?

    3. Should I cough up the $1,800 for the nav or get an aftermarket?

    4. If I do get aftermarket, what is the best nav system for the money?

    Ok, I think that's it for now.

    My only advise is for #3.
    Instead of the $1800 as a dealer option, you could always forego that option and pick one up used. I see the factory Nav unit on Ebay for $700 to $900 al lthe time.

    1.You could shop around in neighboring states to find a better place to place an order. That way you'd be getting a deal, AND getting it first... just make sure there aren't any front plate holes.

    2.I really like the pseudo SRT wheels. !

    ^^^ what RT said for #3. The stock serves its purpose relatively well but you could get it cheaper.

    IMHO, bad enough to take the hit on a new car (which I've now done twice), no need to screw yourself further by getting gouged. There are still top banana's and go mango's on lots that are being practically given away now. My vote is to wait about three months after release.


    2. Should I keep the chrome clad wheels on the PC or should I swap them for the ones I have now?

    I think black wheels would look stellar on that car myself. Those stockers are puuuurdy though!


    3. Should I cough up the $1,800 for the nav or get an aftermarket?

    I don't think aftermarket is the way to go personally... yes, some have more features, but they're not integrated as well into the rest of the car. I'm with the others though, I picked one up brand new w/ antenna, newest DVD and revised joystick under $1,000 and that was eight months ago now.


    4. If I do get aftermarket, what is the best nav system for the money?

    ^^ See above


    Ok, I think that's it for now.

    for #3, i picked up a Mio Digiwalker portable. it works great as an in-car nav, and i can take it out of the car and put it in pedestrian mode and use it for geo-caching, hiking, etc. best part, it was under $200. im in the process of modifying an overhead console i picked up from a member here so that i can keep the unit in the glasses foldout, where it will have power for recharging the battery. save your money for more worthy projects!

    Well, all I can tell you, is if I EVER buy a new car again, it will come from Steve White. I have looked all around, and no one I've seen can beat his prices.

    Thanks for all your responses guys!

    Charg-um....does Steve take phone calls and orders, or is he just an eBay salesman? You weren't kidding about his prices!

    I believe he takes orders. Also note the free shipping.. Somewhere in the ebay mess I found a link to his homepage.

    1) Just order the damn thing. Just get your HEMI already!!!

    2) Put your factory SXT wheels back on your car and keep the fancy ones just incase you want to change them later. If you don't have them anymore. You can always get them cheaper then buying a new set of 20's or 22's.

    3) I can get you a sweet deal on the NEW Pioneer AVIC-D3 if you want to get one in the future. Just get the factory unit now and you can always sell it on this site and get the money for the Pioneer unit when you are ready to change it out.

    4) Pioneer AVIC-D3
    Thank you Bigal470
