[falchulk]

just a question.........did they release the SRT Caliber yet?

[GLHS837]

Nope, theres talk that they have hit the floor at Belveidere, but no confirmation on that. In any case, no customer has one yet.

Hi, I'd like to know how accurate the 0-60 timer is? Many here, including myself have run 4.4-4.7 sec 0-60 times with CHSRT8. I'm surprised DCX didn't advertise this if this is accurate.

Why two different tires available on SRT8? RSAs supposed to be better in inclement weather? How is it decided which cars get which tires? Is it part of the side air bags option group to get RSAs?

BTW I started a thread here a while ago about upshifting from a launch. I have a '07 SRT8 and found mine is upshifting around 6000 RPM (not early like I thought) like it is supposed to so no problem here. I hope the others with the early upshift get their problem fixed.

I love the car. Thanks guys.

Short shift? If its what I think you mean, I"m sure it will be asked. If it looks like it isnt towards the end, I will.

They covered the 0-60 acuracy last time, saids its close to what they use. How close they didnt quantify.

The RSAs are indeed the all-season choice, the F1s the three season (no snow) choice. Its on the order form. When the car is ordered, you or the dealer ordering it makes that choice.

Yes if you spin you tires it seems to shift right into 2nd gear bogs and it does that shift at around 3500 rpm's After i had the TCM flash done on my 06SRT8 Mag...thanks :)

Before I forget, brace is for NVH (noise, vibration, harshness) reduction only, it has no pupose other than that.

I have been told, hopefully in error, the Charger is being discontinued after 2007 in favor of the Avenger. Someone please tell me this isn't true. My wife is graduating RN school and my gift to her is going to be an '08 SRT.
