Default Challenger Owner Locator Map

Some of you may have seen this posted elsewhere. We now have over 200 owner locations mapped.

I was thinking it might be pretty cool to see where the Challenger owners out there are located (just by city). Maybe get a feel for how many people are in your area or region with an easy look at a map. I've used zeemaps.com for some other things and have just set up a new map for people to input their location. Different trim levels will be identified by different color markers.

I realize that many may not be into this or have some sort of security concerns, but for those that are interested in putting in just a little info, it might be interesting.

The map is located here: http://www.zeemaps.com/map?group=120385, or search for "Challenger Owners" if you misplace the link.

To access the details of any marker representing one of us, you must enter a password as follows: For Viewing: password = vvv. To enter your own marker, password = xxx. This may work with either password once you're in. Just know that no one can view the info without a pwd.

To add a marker, click on Additions, Add Marker and fill out the following:
Title: (Your screen name, real name, whatever), City, Postal Code, Country, State and at the bottom, CHALLENGER TRIM LEVEL: (i.e. SE, SXT, R/T or SRT8 - default is R/T). On the Details tab, you can enter the Year and Paint Color. (The original fields on a blank map include phone number, email and website but I've removed those.)

Note that this is a world map, so don't hesitate to put in your overseas location. (I recall some of our forum members are serving in the military.)

There is also a list feature that will allow you to show a list along the right side and then click on a name to see where the marker is located. Click on View, List to display that. There are also ways to embed the map on a website with various parameters if anyone is so inclined.

Update: I've added icons for 1st Gen. and 2nd. Gen. Challengers. Didn't want to get hung up on more icons for all of the additional trim levels (i.e. base, R/T, SE, R/T SE, T/A) for the earlier generations though. I added another field on the details page to write in the trim level for 1st and 2nd gen. cars.
