Have you checked out the insurance on those babies? I can only imagine what the operating expenses would be like on that. Gas? Tires? maintenance? Insurance? Weekly tickets?  Kind of hard not to let your right foot get lazy and just cruise. Might as well live it up while you can. None of knows when the end will come.  |
Yeah, ins will be higher than the lightning and given the parts cost I will have full coverage. Usually carry comp without collision (I own an autop body shop so i get to fix my own mistakes...)
As far as tires, I go thru a set in 4k miles usually, either worn out or more likely riddled with nails. Just my luck. Gas cannot be much worse than the lightning, 12mpg... Pretty good about avoiding the cops. We have some good cop free roads and street running is popular enough to have organized times that the cops do not know about.
Hey, everyone could do with a few extra inches, and if the viper does that, well so be it. I consider that a fringe benefit, and who cares how big you dong is when you go by so fast it makes the ricers heads spin. I have never had an issue with a nice car, unless some stuck-up pompus douche knozzle owns it.
