Default One year ago today ...

I got my '09. After 365 days and having rolled up an incredible 2,684 miles, I'm STILL amazed at the reaction it gets. Last night, my wife and I took it to dinner, and when we were leaving the eatery, a guy pulls up alongside, wanting to know if it was a 2010 model (the Ridergraphix strobe stripes on the sides threw him). Although I haven't seen anyone taking pics of it like when I first had the car, the Challenger still gets plenty of looks and "thumbs up" gestures.

Oh ... interestingly, I pulled into a rather large Exxon station a couple of weeks ago, and a guy working there thought at first that it was a '70 model. He'd noticed the script Challenger badge I'd put on the fender as I passed by the window, but the pump I pulled up at was a little difficult for him to see. So within two weeks, it's been identified as everything from the oldest to the newest model.
