Yeah - fine, thanks for letting me have this car. :)
I was kind of excited climbing the mountains regarding the cooling capacity. A lot of cars' engines (tourists with trailers and campers, seen them ?) gets overheated while climbing the Norwegian mountains. No problem for the T/A, the gauge appeared as if riding on the highway. Now I'll check it in the hot summer nights later even at street cruising.

I've been listening to you, Mal, I haven't floored the pedal yet. :!: :!: Yeah, boys - it's true!! As it was my first trip with the car, I even tried to check the fuel economy for it. I made it a 1,47 liter/10 kilometres. That's a lot better than expected, much better. :P I would guess between 2,0 and 2,5 so I'm very satisfied on that. Sorry I don't know how to recalculate for MPG. Probably I won't go that low again... I'm getting more used to the enjoyable sides of the Challenger!

Brought home my Satellite today from winter storage. Christ, what a comfortable car to drive. :idea:
Shouldn't sell, had better kept it for driving around at car shows in a comfy car. Must admit the T/A is not for those long road trips at average or poor asphalt... Well whatever I enjoy it. Both!

Roar was kind enough to send me a copy of his club magazine article about his little adventure. I had to laugh at the bit about me feeding them and then taking them out for a little drive. :lol:

I'm not using my Mac at the moment and I can't read a word of that Norwegian mag...I suppose it's a PC thing...

Lovely matched pair Roar! :shock:

Cool!

Thanks for your nice comments, all of you.

And Dave: you make the situation sound like if you can read (AND understand) Norwegian, hehe.

There is ;)

If you can read after (your!) sentense about "I really do not want to send this car back to the States! Please inquire.", it's written about Budgie: "Selgaren var imøtekomande, sympatisk og moparfreak på sin hals. Han sende bilete og dokumenter på e-post på alt eg ba om"

Would you like any translation? Will be your home work until next lesson, hehe.

Sure :lol:

It says "Seller was positive, sympathic and mopar freak. He forwarded by e-mail pictures and copies of all documents requested".

Only the best recommendation for the Muscle Car Technology. Sorry I forgot to mention your web site here.

I might not be able to speak or understand the language Roar but when i read it out loud the way it looks to sound it does sound a bit like really strong Geordie dialect.

That's GEORDIE Budgiebird. As in George (Stephenson).

So even though the words are not English I can understand (and laugh about) bits of it such as;

"Han tok oss gladeleg med pa ein sightseeing/raceseeing - det seinere ein e-post fra han som sa at kjell ikkje hadde trengt a halde fast i dashbordet nar han koyrte!"

Is that a slur on my driving Sir! :lol:
