traded the cobalt

I just could not pass this deal up.



It is a new 2006 srt-10 the gas milage is alot different but it is a blast to drive.

I had alot of fun with the cobalt I just get bored easy and it was time to move on.

Did it come with a fifth wheel and a fuel tanker-trailer? What is that thing getting, 10-13mpg?

I would love something like that but my Ranger was killing me at $700 a month in fuel I couldn't imagine what it would cost me to drive that beast...

That's one smokin' nice ride, good luck with it...

Nice!

But I wouldn't do it. Hell, I traded in my full size pickup for the SS/SC because gas prices were killing me. And I know Dodge trucks get far worse mileage then Chevy ones.

I had a black one years ago. I averaged 13mpg combined and got about 250 miles to a 20 gallon tank. Hope it's not a DD

Wait till you see how much mods are for them.

Bad ass truck! I think I would take that over a cobalt any day, so I cant blame ya. How much did it cost ya? You can have alot more fun with trucks, because you can pull ATV's, Dirtbike's, Boats, and jet-ski's. Thats why I've been looking at getting a truck or wrangler over a balt.

You sure you drove an SRT10? My SRT10 handled great for a truck. You probably weren't accustomed to oversteer.

You only test drove it if you were approved that is the deal with any srt vehicle even the srt-4. and I would put the truck against the cobalt on any type of track or course sorry I think you drove something else

DD is Daily Driver. The vehicle you normally use to get around and put the most miles on. Compared to the weekend ride, the sunny day ride, a beach cruiser, etc which are only taken out once in a while/when the weather is nice/your going to a certain place.

In late 05 i picked up a low low mile 04 SRT10 for 30K and had it for about 6 months before i got rid of it.

I ran it against a stock cobalt SS and walked him on the top end. I imagine S2 would walk all over the truck.
