    The Story of Our Charger

    In the summer of 2006 Lisa and I moved in together, which freed up some income since I was no longer paying $1,000/month for rent on an apartment that I never slept at, and in fact had not been to in almost 6 months.

    At the time I was driving a 1996 Dodge Avenger that I bought second hand from a friend of mine several years before, and it had about 280,000 km on the odometer and was literally falling apart. I wanted a Charger, but the price was a little out of my comfort range, and I didn't want to be 'car poor', so we bought an Impala SS. Black and fully loaded.

    About 10 months later a moron with a short attention span and limited driving skills made a left-hand turn from a driveway onto a major road without looking and I hit him head on wihtout any time to brake. The car was totalled. I thought about buying another Impala SS, or perhaps a Cadillac CTS, and added the Charger R/T and Magnum R/T to the list.

    Well during that 10 months I owned the Impala, I changed jobs and received a significant pay increase. The Presidetn of my company just happened to be a huge Mopar nut, and when he found out I was looking at getting into a Charger R/T he put me in touch with an old friend of his that worked at a Chrysler dealer. We arranged to meet her on Saturday morning to take a few cars out, and we had planned on alos visiting a GM dealer later that day, and had an appointment at one as well.

    There was a Sublime Daytona on the lot, but we were not interested (too flashy) so they let me take a Stone White R/T R&T that belonged to one of the other salesman out for a drive. That was it. Shopping was over. We wanted a black one, but basically signed on the dotted line and put down a $500 deposit right there. That was Saturday morning. By Tuesday that had found a Black R/T R&T about 300km away, which had all the options I wanted - basically all of them.

    We picked up the car on Thursday, May 17, 2007.


    Here are a couple of pcitures from on Saturday, May 12, 2007; the day we actually signed on the bottom line. Can you tell I was jazzed about getting this car? We had some people over for drinks and pizza, and I propped up the brochure so I could stare at it all night.
