    Greetings from the southwestern desert. I am posting from Tucson, AZ. My Challenger is old but I love it! I got my dream car back in 2014 (14 Challenger R/T) and paid it off a little over a year ago. Irony at it's finest: the weekend after I made my last payment, someone crashed into my car and left the scene. That driver still has not been located.
    I am here to read about some mechanical issues and possibly post if I am unable to find a post(s) about it.
    Thanks for letting me join the forum!

    Welcome! My wife and I were just out there enjoying the parks and Mt Lemmon in late April, but it was in our Trans Am. A beautiful area to visit and explore.

    Welcome to the forum. Great conversations, ideas and info.
    I can relate to how you felt when your Challenger got hit.
    I was taking a friend out in rural northeast Ohio to pick up his 65 GTO when I was (softly) rearended while sitting stationary at a red light. I had my Challenger for 4 days, a little over 200 miles on it and still had its original tank of gas from the dealer when I got hit. Looked like very little damage but ended up being around $1,400.

    Welcome to the forum. You will have a lot of fun here and learn many things about your Challenger.

    To get a real feel for the genesis of the 2006 concept car and the 2008 production car, it is highly recommended that you view these fascinating designer interviews.
