After paying off the Ram and Durango, my girl friend said we need a car that gets good gas mileage. After looking, I found the local Dodge dealership had 2012 Chrysler 200 still on the lot. Took her down to test drive it. She approved, so I signed the paperwork. I love it so far. It reminds me of the Breeze I had many years ago. While another car payment wasn't the plan, having a new car, with warranty, and much better mileage than 13mpg is going to be nice. I'll upload a pic soon as I can get it edited down.

Congrats on the new car. Ugly little bastard, eh? That's what makes them lovable. lol

I don't really care much for the lines n new cars. They are all very similar. Wind tunnel designing. The only things that set them apart from one another are the grills and tail lights. But, they are pretty efficient, and most will least a few hundred thousand miles with regular care.

Enjoy the new ride, and the new found gas money it will bring you. Best of luck with it. :thumbup:

I commented to my girl on how much it looked like the C class Benze LOL

I love it so far. I put in the front speakers, and hope to have the deck, and amp in next month, and the rear speakers before the summer.

She is in Spokane with her daughter, and her brand new grand daughter :D
