    I'm still kickin. Let's just say that the new year hasn't started out very good for me, so I've been a little down and not myself the last 2 weeks. Thanks to all for the concern and to the few that have called and PM'd me. It's nice to know that I've got a few friends here.

    I might have to let some gear go in the next week or two. I'll let ya'll know if/when I need to do so and what will be let go.

    Thanks,

    The problem is cars ain't selling, period. Daimler-Chrysler went on a muscle car kick. When gas prices went sky high, they got caught with their pants down. Japan was paying attention to China's 20% increase per year in petroleum needs, so they made sure to have fuel efficient vehicles on hand. Between that and that they over sold to people who didn't need to buy yet with incentives last year.

    My brother is the Internet sales manager for a dodge dealership. Customers walk on the lot, see the mediocre gas milage and walk off.

    Man, the biggest problem I see with the new challenger is they use some weird radio styling. That is going to suck for the CA crowd.
