More Bel Aire wagon content is always good.

I drove my “boring” compact car for the first time in two months Wednesday and it felt so good. Just going for a drive is so much fun sometimes.

I see we are both six-something none the richer.

And I’m jealous of that wagon, six under the very large hood?

Have more content! :-)

Kinja'd!!!

Exactly right, as long as we can drive something somewhere we can have fun. I just love being on the move. A great car is the cherry on top of course, but definitely not the main factor to enjoy a drive - for me .

The six is a reference to my old Bimmer:

I didn’t change my username. ;-)

My Bel Air has a 350 SBC.

Ooooh, that DS wears green so well. And the Merc with blown air suspension and or slammed looks pretty sharp.

I can assure you that the air suspension worked really well.

At that low of a ride height I can't see how any suspension could work well.

soon to be 18 cylinders. Dodge is being retired.

Of course not, b ut h e pumped it up quite high while driving.
And I bet that the TÜV made sure that the safety and functionality of the system is as good as it gets because the car was road legal .
I also guess the ride quality of an air suspension is okay .

So all in all I assume that he doesn’t have more issues than drivers of sports cars and averagely lowered cars.

Any plans for a replacement? Something with more or - god help us - less pots?

I like a wagon with four pots, Was going to take over wife’s car which is four pots and an electric mixer. Dodge has exhaust pressure in the coolant, so I don’t want it any more.

Driving a manual and reading words are becomi ng lost arts where I live. here’s the ad:

Sweet merciful crap please read the ad, Clutchy shifty manual transmission. PLEASE READ MANUAL TRANSMISSION MONSTER ENERGY IS SARCASM NOT ACTUALLY A FARGO

Do you want the utility of a Jeep but the impracticality of 2WD in an SUV? Like Jeeps but wish they were styled by Nickleback after a rough night out? Would you be caught dead in a base model Dodge Nitro? Then this is the car for you! It’s the ‘07 Nitro everyone has been talking about! Will trade for a case of monster energy, dirt bikes that don’t run or one of those sports illustrated football phones (but not really).

2007 Dodge Nitro, 2wd 6 speed Manual. Selling my 07 Nitro, it has 265,000 km, water pump is leaking, but may be an intake or head gasket issue causing the problem. Drove for 3 years and 100,000 km without issue, it’s cheap because I think there’s something wrong with it, Don’t know exactly what. I quit driving it 2 weeks ago. Runs and drives great. It is a manual trans, not a flappy paddle, the clutchy-shifty kind with 3 pedals like in the movies. Its a 6 speed so you can shift it a bunch of times in a row like in the movies. It is rear wheel drive like in the movies. It gets better fuel mileage than a train. Cold air, hot heat, power windows and locks, 110v outlet, traction and skid control. Goes like hell, got 3 tickets at high speeds. Parked it when I saw the coolant leak, has not overheated. Numbers matching, gluten free, as you know, Dodge only makes rare and valuable Vehicles, so this is sure to skyrocket in value any day now. Actually hand built by Jebediah Dodge in Toledo Ohio in 2007, and he fell to his knees and cried at the perfection of the base model Nitro. Car is actually dead-nuts reliable, but will need that gasket looked at. Or since it’s cheap, drive it into the ground. It’s not dead yet. I can answer any questions but the whole sarcastic truth is laid out in the ad. $1000 firm.
