Jolly we’ve been wanting to. We’ve rented a mustang and a Camaro so the charger/challenger is logically next.
The exotics place doesn’t carry the muscle cars. Regular rental places often have Mustangs and camaros as their convertible option. But the dodge doesn’t come in a convertible.

The Hellcat is pure muscle in a four door. They say they'll run 200mph, but I don't know. I think my son has kicked it up to 170 on the track.

I’ve been using a yakama bike rack that straps on to the back of my hatchback (Honda Fit/Jazz). Supposedly it holds three bikes but the sum of all three of our bikes exceeds the weight limit so the most I've done is two. Usually it’s just the boy’s bike.
My next car will use the trailer hitch method.

Far superior.
(And by the way, that's a normal progression, strap rack to hitch rack. Pretty much everyone makes that mistake.)

Or...Could buy a nice pickup or pickup and toy hauler.
Remember, this Jon's money we are spending. Act accordingly.

Well then hell, man, what you need is a Land Rover Defender for the day trips, and a Mercedes-Benz 170 3500 Sprinter for your van conversion. Get yourself some 300 watt solar with a battery-to-battery charger, and you can go off-grid for as long as you like. Water filtration, insulation and air fan are easier with that model, too.

Well guys I did just buy a car 3 months ago.
The plan is to send him to college with it and get me something with two seats and 300+ hp.

There’s a police charger up on auction right now. 5.7 L Hemi V8. 370 HP… Needs tie rods and some body work and a paint job to cover for where the police equipment was mounted. If it goes low enough, I might just go for it…
