    WooooHooo

    Well, I picked up my Black (the fastest color..) Magnum SRT8 on Saturday. This car is incredible! It has SRT option groups I, II & III as well as the Sunroof and the additional air bags. The power of this car OMG, the power!! I took my 15 year old nephew with me to pick it up and the 1st time I opened her up on the highway we just looked at each other and gave a big high five. Needless to say he was impressed, I don't think I have ever heard the words Sweet, Tight and Phat so many times in a 1 hour spell. The interior of the car is awesome and it will probably take me a month to learn all the accesories (uconnect, nav, sirius...). My only complaints, actually they are not really even complaints, are I wish the exhaust note was a bit louder (Zoomers in the near future) and when I have the seat and steering wheel adjusted best for me the steering wheel blocks the top half of the speedo. I have 2 questions though, when does the huge smile go away and when will the need to constantly look at it stop....:smile: The power, consider me corrupted!!

    Jim

    Wow, a big congratulations on your new LX vtxrage. I'm sure the smile won't go away for a long, long time. Your cheeks will be hurtin' before long. Hope you enjoy the forum and the ride (Yeah, like that will be a problem).

    Man's biggest mistake is to believe that he's working for someone else.

    Congrats vtxrage, and welcome!

    You needn't worry about your "Hemi addiction" - admitting the issue is the first step. Of course, non of us is quite sure what the second step is, but it's not like we really want to get over it anyway... :lol:

    Jim,
    #1 - Smile? I think it's more like a smirk.
    #2 - I just went out and looked at mine. Again. (I've owned it for 3 months)

    Get back to me/us once you've added the Zoomers. You just thought you were smiling.

    Trust me!

    Congrats! (And welcome to our world)
