changing things up

well the mrs and i have been thinking and we are going to trade in the expy...we are looking at an 06 and an 08 chryler 300....both are cheaper then the xp and get much better gas mileage... we are getting a better deal on the 06 so we are leaning that way...

dont worry the 97 and 01 are still in the stable

That could be a good thing or bad thing,

1. Are you saying Heidi is not worth the extra money or
2. Are you saying that Heidi is frugal spending your money, lol

Lew check out the location of the battery. It is not under the hood!This has been an issue with our police department. It is located in the fender well in a sealed box and the vapor from the battery eats the cables. I don't know if it will effect a non police car due to the amount of amps they use with all of the lights and radios.I just want to let you know so you can look into this problem. We also use Dodge Chargers and the radiators do not hold up. One car is on it's third radiator.
