Crazy sighting for the day.

Ok, so I'm taking my family & my in-laws to Peddlers Village in PA today. On rt 29 between RT95 and Lambertville I passed no less than 14 new Challengers over about a 5+ mile stretch. Black, silver, red, orange, even a copper/brown, kind of like this. Also a maroon one like mule body on 130 has. Many appeared to have Michigan plates, but I also thought I saw PA plates on some.

Def plates like this one:


But google showed me this one, so maybe they all had MI plates. At 50mph each way this may have looked like PA plates to me.


I did not pay attention to plates the 1st few. Sorry, no pics as I was driving at the time.

One of the stranger car sightings I have ever made, lol.

i was going to say the red one is probably Ronnie Mule's. I work at Probuild right behind him. and also as previously stated, they only came in silver orange and black until the next models come with with the manual transmissions and 6cyl's. but if u bought the car for business like ronnie did with his..lol i can see the different colors. Mule also put rims on his did u notice bonzo?

I bet the camaro will not look as wide as the challengers do in the back. Damn, they looked like 75 thunderbirds or something, very wide appearing.

Actually...Camaro is as wide as Challenger, an inch lower and 8 inches shorter.

then you really need to stop the tank comments - 3900 lbs & the same basic size...

Camaro is just as much of a tank as the Challenger.
