    It was very underrated, surprisingly great track car. Not made to drag race, it was made to go fast around corners and it did.

    I wouldn't buy a used one though. The prime demographic beat the shit out of them, and the interiors are likely falling apart at this point. They were just normal cobalt interiors with the exception of Recaro front seats. Though a 4 door would be so cool. Even more sleeper. I recall having to special order the low wing vs the stupid giant non-functional ricer wing. Old ass sales guy tried telling me it made the handle better.

    I'm sure they are. But anything in that segment would be. I figure anything that would be in my budget would be something to work on, or at least in theory that's what it would be for. Of course, I'd want the big dumb wing on it. I miss my big dumb wing. My perfectionist streak would actually prefer a car that has even more bumps and bruises than the Vette does. The most fun I ever had in a vehicle was my 93 Toyota because I didn't care about it. I'd sit on the hood, drive up and over things, etc.

    The boss just showed up with his brand new '21 Ford Black Widow F150. I'm sorry but it looks pretty cheesy.

    I don't understand those packages. They're a stupid expensive cosmetics package. Just get the Raptor and at least get some capability built in, or belly up to the bar and get the Shelby.

    Yeah, it looks like it's a $70k XLT with a crazy lift kit. The only thing I genuinely like is the Gibson exhaust. Sounds awesome but I don't think I'd actually like it for all the highway driving I do.

    Yeah, unless it comes with a real live Scarlett Johansson for your own personal use, it seems like a waste of $$.

    He has well over a million dollars in vehicles in his garage, I don't think he cares about a write off, but I am sure it is. He has a foolishly built Jeep Wrangler, a $135k Corvette of some variation, some kind of re-donk-ulous conversion/camper van, a $600k class A motor home and his wife drives some AMG Mercedes sport wagon that was like $100k. That doesn't include his toys which are a Can Am Spyder that is decked out to the nines, a Triumph Super Chief and some kind of Harley that all the field guys here oooh and ahh about.

    I love this. A few in there like the wagon I’d want. But a man with money being eccentric is way more fun than being a fuddy duddy.

    Yeah, but it doesn't have a Dodge badge on it so... worth it :thumbsup:
    Brilliant and impressive use of memes
    Sounds like the 'more money than brains' club or at least needs some help directing his spending!

    I had to look it up. Yup, that's it. His is black and it sounds like a freakin' muscle car when he pulls up with it, I didn't know Mercedes could sound like that. That's when the wife lets him drive it!

    I'll ask him about your offer...

    I know, I don't get it either. The vehicle he traded for this Black Widow was a Chevy van that had a 40" TV in it, 2 rows of captains chairs and then two rows of benches that make a bed. And something like 30 speakers. I was like "what the hell is that for?" He just liked it I guess. Frenchmen.

    The motorhome is insane- it's a Freightliner chassis Tiffen. Marble floors and everything. I think he's used it twice. I spent about a week helping him set up his Jeep with a tow bar and remote braking system to flat tow... one trip from Londonderry to Old Orchard Beach and he decided that a trailer was a better option to haul the Jeep or motorcycles or Sypder. Of course the trailer was immediately wrapped to match the motorhome.

    I would be so much better at being rich!!
