for sure!  I do regular maintenance and the plan is 200K+ on the 2010 I got now.  They are amazingly reliable with no major issues!  Plus I gave CAMPY the VIN and he ran it to find out where it was manufactured and it was built in USA!  I think Campy said North Carolina.

anyway.  I've had great luck with Yotas!     
I ride with Crazy Horse!

It's all good Jon.

Had to take a trip down memory lane to see the car that saved Merica.

Sorry dude.......
No offense taken.......although when called out "Pacman" style (seemingly uneducated, completely ridiculous, AB faked it-like ) I tend to defend.


Not sleek, I'd get your comments.

verus....


Arguably sleek.

I'm simply not a Mopar fan, that's my issue. Now, if we want to talk Mopars with 440's or Dodge Power Wagon's I'd become a fan quick like

Can you really use the term MOPAR (Move Over Power Approaching Rapidly) when talking about a Le Baron?  

The name itself "Le Baron" sounds French... which implies "grace and fluidity" (in other words weakness) over power.

I want to know if the Lebaron came with optional Corinthian Leather like the Cordoba did back in the day.

Now I need to add this to my list of MOPAR love



There's no such thing as a good investment when it comes to new vehicles. I'd say this one will be as close it gets.

I have to go check on my snowmaker now. Happy shifting! I love standard too, but unfortunately, my father got me an auto for my first car.

I learned stick on a VW Bug. Hard to think of a tougher car for learning manual transmission. Everything else felt pretty easy.

Is that a "done up" Comanche? My son has an '89 Comanche. Too bad it's 2WD, not 4WD. I own a '93 Grand Cherokee with extreme case of Death Wobble. Changed almost every component in the front end and thought I eliminated the wobble. Hit a seam on the highway the other night at 65 mph and almost lost it. Thought one of the front wheels was going to fold underneath the vehicle or break off...the front end went into an extremely violent oscillation and finally stopped when I got it down to 30 mph. Not sure I'm feeling the Jeep/Chrysler/Mopar thing so much any more.
I guess the LaBaron wasn't so bad after all, lmao.

I drove a bug with a stick in the 70s. Dated a girl who had one. If went into any gear no problem but they all seemed the same. Didn't matter what order you went in. If you had 60 seconds you could get that pup up to about 58 mph.

Own a '70 bug now, and have owned many in my day. I always heard the bug was one of the easiest cars to learn to drive stick on. Pedals hinges at the floor as opposed to being hinged above, as all former bug owners know. Also own a 914 with the same pedal configuration.
Interesting to see how I get tailgated coming off red lights by those having no clue the motor is 60 hp and the car is geared the way it is. Would post a pic of it, but other computer took a dump tonight and I'm waiting for repair and recovery from my employer.

I also learned on a bug - a 1964. I don't remember thinking it was easy or hard. It took forever to run the gears. Guys used pass us on mopeds.
