And then there was the rental car deal...
I like to to fly from Oregon to Chicago and then drive to Peoria. The road trip is about 175 miles each way and the countryside is pretty. I choose routes that are off the freeway. When I picked up my rental car at O'Hare airport, they were all out of the compact rigs that I normally order. The lady handed me the key to this new Dodge Challenger and said "have fun." Well, it took me about two minutes to find the 0-60 timer on the trip meter and I was off and running. I have never seen anything like this on a car before.
The best that I could achieve was six seconds flat. I tried all sorts of things to break into the fives, but no such luck. Still, 6.0 isn't bad for a 4,000 +/- pound car with 6 cylinder engine. Good clean fun, and all within the posted speed limit. :thumbsup::laugh:
