Saw this sight this morning along the freeway. I have been carrying my camera with me a lot lately and every so often it comes in handy.

I wonder if people take pictures of my charger when it's found on the road dead.  I'm a real lousy mechanic and my car has been stranded at least 6 times in the past 3 weeks.  I hate walking :RantExplode:

I would Never leave my charger on the side of the road. No matter what. No way no how. I never leave home on a trip with it without full towage coverage and a cell phone. Bare minimum.

I put money on it that his fuel pump went out.

Happen to me a number of times out on the freeways.

How do you know the driver isn't in the woods relieving himself?

To test this theory, just open the hood & start removing parts. :D

J/K!! ;D

The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

I would think he would shake it off and come running if someone stopped to take pics. :Twocents:

A friend of mine saw that car today , too. He called and was telling me about it. He wanted to know if I knew whose car it was.

Is it still there?

Lookit the leveling of the rearend of the car versus the back window area & the roof.  It looks off-kilter to me.

(Not how the car is resting on the suspension, but rather how the car's unibody itself is shaped.)

The road looks like it kinda has a couple different levels to it and the passenger side of the car is on the "lower level" of it.

Did you steal his licence plate? :D It kills me when people blank the tag out when a car is on the street. What about at the cars shows?

I also saw this yesterday at a local restaurant. Nice, but not a big fan of the wheels.

No, I'm talking about the car's unibody structure itself.  This has nothing to do with how the car is sitting on the road surface, or the tires, or the suspension. 



Look at the horizontal bottom edge of the rear window, and then look at all the horizontal lines on the back end of the car.  The "horizontal" lines are visibly out of parallel with each other between the roof/back window versus the whole rear end of the car:




70charger_boy

Wow, that looks like a serious rear suspension problem

This is what I'm talking about.  Photoshopped exaggeration of the issue.

It ain't no tire, suspension, or road surface problem:

its an optical illusion. the back seat isn't installed correctly, the missing window trim doesn't help either, the car looks good to me.
I used to own a mopar because it was different, but now I know better.
