What's wrong with a Hemi? Well it would have to be able to leave the gas station to be able to figure out its issues haha. How's the fuel mileage?

So I've come to visit my mom only to find out her neighbour is trying to blame her for backing into his car. And they don't even have a nice car, it's a Chevy lumina. Also, where their car was hit, it would be impossible for my mom's car to have not had any damage along the side and there is no damage at all. Some people are just idiots.

Randy; Does your mom live in Winnipeg? I would be glad to help her out, if she needs back-up. I had a problem with a neighbour years ago. He accused me of hitting his tent trailer and bending the leg's. I was backing in my driveway with a double wide sled trailer. His camper overhung my driveway by a foot. I moved it over by hand to get the trailer in. The leg's were all bent up when I moved it. I came home and Dawn was upset. She said the neighbour came over and gave her what for about hitting the trailer. I walked over and knocked on the door. His wife answered, and proceeded to give me crap. he showed up behind her and started in on it. I pushed the door opened, and told him to call the cops, and we'd get everything straight. He said sorry, and he won't bother me again. Good luck.

I managed to have a civilized discussion with the neighbour and we came to the conclusion that who ever backed into him, also hit my mom's car. So he said when he puts the claim in, he's going to call it a hit and run, or so he said he will.

Grant, that is unfortunate that your neighbour got all up in arms rather than able to have a civil discussion. My mom lives in Morden, i have an uncle (my dad's brother) that would be here to back up my mom if necessary, but thanks for the moral support. Also found out, it was the cops that started to blame my mom. What ever cop can't figure out what me and the neighbour did in 20 minutes should not be a cop lol.

Morning boys... Forget the MPG arguments between brands. If its not a Smart car or Honda Cervix, its going to suck fuel. The end. The hemi will likely get 15mpg or so around town, 20+ on the highway... Guess what? Every 1/2 ton truck I've owned have gotten the same except for my 1990 F250. It gets 12 regardless of where its going My super duty got the best mileage, hand calculated 25mpg on a couple trips. Even the explorer didn't get better than that very often. Honestly, Gerry, I really hope that Dodge serves you well. I couldn't give a rats patoot what a person drives, as long as it puts a smile on their face and keeps them safe.


Looks like freezing rain in the forecast for tomorrow and Wednesday. My least favorite weather ever.


Have a great day guys!!
