This beautiful Launch Edition SRT10 Coupe is a joy to drive, the A/C blows ICE Cold and the Sound system has the ability to load and play multiple MP3/CD Discs or plug in your IPOD or MP3 player directly. This car is the 2006 Launch Edition and has special significance because it is #43 of 200 which happens to be the most Iconic Dodge racer of all time, The King Richard Petty  The exhaust is custom built by NayKid Racing a (previously) factory supported Viper racing team and demands attention without being obnoxious while releasing a little more power from the mighty V10 over stock The fact that we raced new from the factory Vipers (this car was never raced) allowed some team spares (brand new parts) to find their way onto this team owner's street car as follows:   * Full T1 Suspension * Moton Double Adjustable Remote Reservoir Shocks * Eibach Coil-over Springs * Fully adjustable sway bars The tires and wheels have less than 2,000 miles on them as they were pulled off one of the race cars during it's conversion from street car and installed on this car. The car has been tasteful lowered just enough to look drop dead sexy yet still navigate the average speed bump or driveway successfully. The driver's seat has been lowered 1" which is just enough that a six footer doesn't have to lean over in the car to see a traffic light. FYI: "rebuilt" title due to mishap when car was very new, many Viper's ended up with rebuilt titles due the extremely high cost of parts and commonly being owned by very meticulous people who pushed insurance companies to total rather than repair these powerful machines. I've owned this car for 5 years, it was repaired, inspected licensed and insured before I bought it. It has been licensed, insured and driven for pleasure every year since. In Washington you  must take the damaged car, after the repair is made and "before" you are issued a title and are granted the ability to license the car for the highway you must have the car inspected. Once the car has been inspected and deemed repaired properly and safe for the road you are issued a "branded" title which could say, "rebuilt" (as in this case) or "not actual miles" etc and then you license the car and smog check it etc just like any other car never to bother again with anything more than any other clean title car. I have to smog check it every other year which it passes with flying colors because we've made no changes that affect smog. As for insurance I've also had insurance on it the whole time with Ameriprize and all I had to do was have an inspection done by an ASE mechanic and show current pictures of car the same as insuring a classic. It could be different in another state but I would be surprised and I encourage you to make a couple calls.  The thing that happened a lot with these Vipers was they would have incur light damage and the salvage value is so high on them that the insurance company could make out better by totaling them. In other words, the way a car is determined to be totaled is as follows: Cost of repairs + expenses related to downtime (IE: rental car) OR Replacement cost (how much car owner will settle for to walk away from car) - salvage value (what someone will buy the damaged car for) is what determines the insurance company's outlay.  Whichever is the less of the two determines if car will be totaled or not. Typically a Viper is worth $75k to replace yet brings $55k in salvage so net loss for insurance company is $20k, when you compare that to $15k to repair a small damage + 60 days worth of rental cars and expenses @ $6k that's $21k so better off to total even with minor damage... This car was repaired properly and is owned and driven by an accomplished road racing team owner as his personal street car, this also allowed for this car to end up with some very cool and elusive parts direct from Dodge Motorsports due to his Sponsorship with Dodge.  See above for description...

Car dealership in East Texas destroyed by tornado

Tue, May 2 2017

Few things are as fundamentally and unconditionally destructive as a tornado. These cataclysmic phenomena pass through towns, leaving nothing in their wake but ruin and despair. According to an NBC affiliate in the Dallas-Fort Worth region, a car dealership in nearby Canton was hit by a tornado Saturday night. No employees were hurt. Four other people in the area weren't so lucky. Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Canton's new showroom and service center were pounded by the storm, leaving dozens of cars in various states of ruin. Some merely lost windows, while others were flipped and left on their sides or roofs. Photos show piles of cars stacked up like Hot Wheels dumped on the ground. According to a statement from the National Weather Service, winds reached speeds of up to 140 mph. Two other tornadoes were reported in the region. The area has been declared a disaster zone and first responders from up to 100 miles away have swarmed in to help out those in need. According to Reuters, the storms Saturday killed 11 people nationwide.

Preserved truck found at the bottom of frozen lake

Tue, Jan 26 2016

A fisherman in central Minnesota pulled more than bluegill and bass out of his local fishing hole earlier this month. While ice fishing on Mayhew Lake, a local man was startled when, using an underwater camera to scout for fish, he discovered a vehicle sitting on the lakebed, the SCTimes reported. He immediately called the Benton County Sheriff's office, which sent deputies to examine the vehicle. Once they arrived, the deputies used their own camera to have a look and discovered a late-90s to early-00s model Dodge Ram pickup in roughly 12 feet of water. The Sheriff's department dive team was then dispatched to search the truck and the area surrounding it for bodies or valuables. The truck was lifted from the lakebed through a huge hole in the ice. The Sheriff's office ran the plates and discovered that it was reported stolen in March of 2000 from a nearby address. Investigators believe that given the truck's location, almost 100 yards from the lake's public access ramp and 25 yards from the north shore, that it was driven on to the lake while it was frozen, then allowed to sink to the bottom once the ice melted. Thanks to the lake's frigid waters, the truck was surprisingly well preserved. Aside from a missing grille, a coating of mud inside, and a patina of rust on the sheet metal, there was little damage to the truck despite its long rest in the lake. With an engine full of lake water and the damage done by roughly sixteen freeze-thaw cycles, the truck will never run again, but its condition is a good testament to the build quality of those old Rams. It certainly held up better than that '57 Plymouth Belvedere they buried in the time capsule under the Tulsa city courthouse.

Experience the New York Auto Show by drone

Fri, Apr 10 2015

The Autoblog team recently returned from wildly running around the Javits Center to cover all the news and debuts at the New York Auto Show. Sometimes, it's nice to take a more serene look at the exhibition floor, though, and the event's organizers are providing that exact opportunity by flying a drone through the hall. Combined with the down-tempo music, this clip feels like a form of automotive meditation. If you're going to miss the show in the Big Apple, the drone also provides a good overview at the exhibition floor, especially at the stands from Lexus, Buick, Dodge, Mercedes-Benz, Toyota and BMW. Plus, it's a fun way to see some vehicles from a completely different angle than they ever appear on the road.
