My brand new challenger! My dream car. I'm so excited. Went to Omaha yesterday to antiques roadshow, on the way home passed a dealership and went in to see what they had and came out with this! I traded in my Jeep (that was being difficult) and got a great deal. It has all those fun features on it clear down to air conditioned seats!
I'll be having a racing stripe added to it in the next couple weeks.
Why is it stinky? Because in true freebird fashion, I hit a skunk on the way home! 
It smelled TERRIBLE. lol. Went to car wash and it's ok today though. Whew. Wouldn't stop me from driving it though haha.

As soon as your nest is empty, just do it. You're not getting younger!!
Now, excuse me while I go cut cats asses in my driveway.

That is so stinkin' cool! (get it? stinkin'? sorry, couldn't resist)
LOVE the color! And I really did LOL when I saw the cat on one side of the car and the chicken on the other. Looks like everybody is checking out your new wheels. Too cute.

Its empty enough that it would work  I found one here in town with all the specs I want. Price is about where I expect it to be except Carfax is reporting two accidents. That makes me nervous. I had the most interesting conversation a few months back with a guy who was providing our facility with hearing aids. Turns out his first job was working on the assembly lines with the originals. He gave me some tips etc on looking for a used one, even though the Hellcat sounds fun, its not the one I want. He swears he will never drive another car. It was a fascinating discussion. Someday my car will find me |

I am old enough to remember when they first came out. They were a nice looking car back then and looking at yours I must they are a nice looking car now.
Love the colour of yours.

That is awesome! Happy Stinky Birthday!
We have a running joke in my house about cats noticing that something is new.... "Hmmm, this wasn't here before..." "That skunk scent is lovely!'

Happy happy birthday to you!!!!! If I didn't have a kid, I'd have a 2 door. I bought a 2012 charger (needed 4 doors) for myself as a last day of school/first day of summer present. Traded in my 2000 intrepid known as Ghetto Gold. The Silver Surfer and I are in love now. |

Happy Birthday, freebird!
And two more things:
1. It makes very very happy to see the artwork in your signature line and know that I own the original of one of those works of art 
2. I found a new-to-me artist during our trip to Key West this weekend and thought you might enjoy looking at her work.

What a great birthday present. I think the stripes add a lot of pizzazz.
My brother-in-law has the same car in the same color. He loves it.
