Detroit Auto Show

[Snowdog]

Well, I went down to the Detroit Auto Show a couple of weeks ago to see what my son's been working on for the last couple of years. I'll give you a couple of hints on what it is: It's the most expensive, heaviest, meanest vehicle there. Also, it's green and mean. It has T-tops, well sort of. I hope you enjoy the pics.

The Tank Right!

Yep, You got it!

S'more

Of course there's a cop behind the CUDA/Challenger! Just waiting to see what happens.

Someone might out run the Tank but not the round it can send!

I was there also and took all of the same pictures as you posted. I like Tim's street rod from Home Improvement.

You've got a good eye! Also, there was plenty of real cops (DPD) there, to say the least.

Yep, 120mm main cannon with the auto loader is going to be hard to out run. Also, the Javelin on top of the turret would be tough to out run too. Did you see the T Tops / hatches in the front view, under turret? I guess they slide outward for ingress/egress, all three crewmember sit in the front hull now, making it the world's biggest side by side. No more loader crewmember, the autoloader does it now.

Ha, Ha, Ha, it took me awhile to figure out what the "RRR" on the valve cover meant. Hey, did you hear Tim's starting up another sitcom on ABC, "Shifting Gears". It's about an old guy that owns a car restoration company and his divorced daughter with her daughters move back in with him.

We went there on Friday when it was like -8F, but it wasn't a big deal, even though my wife though it was. We lucked out and got to park on the roof, it was a short walk to get inside. Usually, I can never get a roof spot on Cobo Hall.

It's just my opinion, but the Challenger with the Cuda tags on it is butt ugly!

 

[Snowdog]

Yep, not my cup of tea either. It begs the question.......Why?

Not just your opinion. It was even worse in person. My eyes still hurt.
