    Curious. Has anyone seen the new Dodge Chargers yet? The Chrysler dealership by me had 5 of them all black sitting in front just unloaded as I drove by. They all appeared to be coupes with a deeply recessed performance hood. I read these were going to be electric but also just read Chrysler had second thoughts and also offer a HiPo V6. Looked pretty good and not as thick as the Challenger was. I didn't have time to stop but will later just to check them out. Kind of had 68 Charger vibe with first impression.

    I haven’t seen one in person yet just on motortrend. Probably wrong but I thought the challenger was going to be electric? I do pass a lady going the other way every day on my way to work that has a hellcat 4 door charger that is pretty sweet looking!

    Mostly stock, just getting it to my liking, just happy to have had the taco and now my 4Runner.
    If it the v6 it’s a turbo if I remember correctly?

    Don’t remember on that exactly, just got saddened to see it was another loss of a v8, in a muscle car, another brilliant move by stellantis, for more nails in the coffin.

    Depending on the volume made, those may be your most valuable…

    These are some of the buses that were given to me by my friends family. I don’t really collect the buses but he did. I decided to keep and display some of his favorites. I don’t know the volume made but not my most valuable.

    Love the art work on the cards those cars came with. I have these two snake and mongoose drag cars in a case until I can build some kind of shelf to display them on with their matching milk trucks and trailers.

    That’s cool. They were in my childhood. We would go see the drag races and nationals. Of course they were the “names” outside of Evil Kinevel.

    Wish I had a better Evil Knievel bug. M2 will probably make his custom rig some day. Might be Johnny Lightning but someone makes one of his cars. Can’t remember the car though.

    Store had some interesting things, but didn’t take my wallet or phone… whoops!
    Did get these though…

    someone said something about having a hard time finding this Land Cruiser?
    I’ve got two… just send me an addy.
    The wagon was interesting and I thought @RLMoody could have fun with this Chevy…

    Just be cautious of being too drawn in… AI has made concept design far too realistic. All of those on luxearts are AI conceptualized designs and not actual products/prototypes.
