Too bad it's a Fiat Chrysler product. You're gonna need that warranty.

i was thinking that the worst thing about this car is, most likely, the transmission.
then they start talking about the trans-brake.......o.k., thank you, i love warranties.

What do you do with it though?

Wouldn't want to drag race it.. and it'd be shit on the twisty roads. I dunno what things are like there, but here every 10 feet there's a fucking speed camera or cop because there's revenue needed to be raised.

My wife and I went down the coast the other day in her A250. That simply has more power/speed than we need already, because the whole fucking way I was staring at the speedo instead of watching the road. My license would last all of 6 seconds in one of these. The cops would sit at the dealership exits with a speed laser just picking them off as they drove out.

if one thing is for sure about my driving experience in the Dallas area for....DAMN! 37 years? (i'm fuggin old!), every piss ant and their Hemi's wanna run anything, i would rarely use a trans brake unless i went to the track again because most street races are like a 30-40 punch.
i even had a kid in a BMW 1 series run me in the Mustang (that car is a sleeper), he lost, but i had to hit it fairly hard to smoke him.
the Stang beat 4 hemis, a Suburu WRC and several other odd cars before it lost a fight with a concrete wall.
i lost my first and only actual drag race at a track to a friggin Camaro of all things, OH THE SHAME! sad

yeah, i have several excuses for that one, but nobody seems to care about that as i took shit all that night. LOL

There aren't many speed cameras here pulse, matter of fact I don't know of any still in use in Texas.

Back in the early 70s there was one called an Orbis that sat on a pole in a wide median between 2 sides of a 4 lane wide stretch of road in a suburb called Grand Prairie. It took its shitty little pics and mailed out tickets ... in between bouts of bein blasted to hell with shot guns or havin gallons of paint dumped over its lense. Eventually they got tired of rebuildin or replacin the damned thing and gave up on the idea since they were spendin more than they were makin off of it. Texas baby, gotta love it!!

But ... if you get popped street racin by the wrong cop and wind up in front of the wrong judge it can be quite an expensive deal

don't let you lawyer just accept what judge you are to be judged by.

we do still have street light cameras on damn near every half way major intersection + a few more.
they've got me 3 times. the worst thing about it is that there is no defense against camera footage, and no contention against said evidence will be admitted. the "officer" ALWAYS shows up. it's pay the ticket, or take defensive driving to get it dismissed.
there was a rash of vandalism to cameras in my area when they first came out (wasn't me). my lawyer claims he can get me off of any camera ticket now. i laughed, but then realized that he's gotten me off the many other tickets in the past. i got off one because the cop put the wrong address on the ticket (school zone doing 48
