Did my 1st burn out...... by CHANCE!
I have NEVER driven any of our magnums to the flea market, but today, having this new 05 R/T, I thought "What the HEY..."
After I got out of our dirt road and hit the pavement, I stopped, tapped it down to 1st gear (Manual mode), turned off the ESP and lit 'em up. Was really surprised HOW MUCH SMOKE!!!
NOT BAD for a car with very close to 148,000 miles!!!
I figured why NOT, the Continentals were pretty much shot anyway and when I got home was changing out these wheels/tires for another set of the same wheels with BRAND NEW Michelin tires on it anyhow. Was going to wait until I got the front end checked out 'cuz this ONE has been lowered and wanted to be sure alignment was good, and get the "rattle" noise checked out too (tie rods???)
