A new Charger experience (for me)

I took the Charger out for a run yesterday afternoon and made the trip to the beach.  With the holiday weekend here and the excellent turnin the weather I don't need to tell you it was packed in the little beachside village.  Also needless to say there were plenty of other old musclecars out for a drive and plenty of Harleys too.  Now I am used to getting thumbs up from other old car owners these days but this was the first time that the majority of the Harley riders were also giving me props.  I have had positive signs from bikers before but never the majority like this.  I don't if it's because the Harley owners have become more mainstream or we have become more accepted by the outlaw fringe but it was all cool in my books.  :2thumbs:

I'm a former ricer and I can tell you that a great Charger like Ghoste's and many on the site will always turn heads and get thumbs up!  It's just a respect thing... Hell last time we were out in the Charger a dude in a Maserati Quattroporte pulled up and nearly drooled all over his Connelly leather!


This Charger right here is a one of none, that means none before it, none to come.
