You know the only Mopar I've ever owned was a motorhome on a 1978 Dodge Sportsman chasis with a 400 cid. Replaced the 2bbl with a 4 and added headers.  It got an average of about 7.5 mpg.

Thanks denbert, sorry you are depressed and discouraged. Turn a little bit of Christian tunes on, that usually gets me in a bit of a better mood. God is with you and will see you through your troubles. Hope and pray all goes well for you!

ray of son-a kind answer turns away wrath--thanks. denbert --you must be drivin' a rice burner orrrr Fix or repair daily (Ford). Don't you know "Consumer reports", "Motor Trend" etc., are funded by the foreigners--so u ain't gonna giv a proper assessment. I had an '88 Caravan for 10 yeers--never had to put $500 repair on it-- a '70 Dart 340 for 17 years--rare repairs--ate about everything--even gas!! gone again

Those magazines all have ownership and circulation data in the fine print either near the front or the back of each issue (if I remember right).
A couple things that I would give Dodge credit for are the mini-van and their styling. Not that the mini-van has great style.  But they do seem to be the measuring rod for every other manufacturer of mini-vans, and they were the originator of the concept.
Often I have marveled at the styling of many of the Mopar products, and the '70 Dart is no exception. It's just a beautiful piece of machinery.

Well, a bit depressed and discouraged today. That will likely go away and then turn to anger. But good to see you back. 
Don't let it steal your Joy.

I saw the 'smart' car today, a black convertible version. It looked like something that could drive out of a refrigerator box... a VW Beetle that someone had stylishly cut the tail end off of. I don't think I'd fit in one. One thing's certain, there's not a lot of air in there to heat or cool off.
that it had a Ret. Armed Forces Army tag on it was interesting... maybe a former tank driver who likes the closed-in feeling of it? Or else he's saving up for his own health care needs in the future. Anyone know if there's air bags in those? I'd think that could kill someone in that small a space, or with a passenger bag maybe shove the passengers together Hard?
It looked a bit creepy to me.

(the fire's going... but the coffee ain't)
Hey! Who put goldfish in the pot! Someone came back from the fair and forgot to take them home... well, those fish will be wired for awhile. We don't need live pets in here... who'd take care of feeding them? Pours fish in old coffee can that's rinsed out.
[Scrub, scrub! Rinse, rinse, grounds, close it up, *smack*, sniff sniff, aahhhh!, fills mug, plops down in fave old recliner, swings feet up toward old coal stove. Reads todays Sports section, notes AL Crimson Tide #1]
Rooooooooollllll Tide! Roll!
[That should get the neighbors dogs going.]

Bama's dun good. Maybe the Dawgs won't beat themselves with penalties this weekend, and keep the "War Tigeles" from making the ranking board. Then I can rub my BILs nose in it.

Working my tail off and am making a lot of money, but it's all because of political screw ups and selling off public trust.
