    That's a good point Tom, I forgot to mention the "real blast" part.
    I've had my PT GT for a year and a half and I frequently find myself
    saying "oh, boy, I get to drive her again" as I start her up and hear
    the rumble.

    Also, when I catch a glimpse of her in the parking lot. She just looks
    so sweet. When I see her in a row of cars the front grille is so
    distinctive you just have to admire it.

    Load her up with a load of lumber... no problem. 8' long lumber fits
    nicely.
    Take it home and unload it, then turn it around and take it for spin.
    When everyone else is slowing down to climb a hill, just give it a
    little gas and surge ahead.

    Or if you prefer, take it to the track and blow the doors off of some
    unsuspecting Mustang, Eclipse or even quite a few Corvette models.

    "Then, 36.5k the rubber bushings in the rear suspension started squeaking."

    There is no question that Chrysler needed to find a better supplier for its
    front and rear sway bar bushings. They also needed better sway bar links.
    Other than that, and the wide turning radus, fair fuel economy and lack of
    power on my 01 Limited, it has been a great ride. I'm at 70,000 miles and
    still going strong.

    Richard.

    Has anyone heard if the rumour that the 06's would have a 3.0 liter
    engine available, is true?

    DC is stating that the 06's will have 230 HP compared to the 220 with the
    05's and below (Turbo/GT models).

    same engine.
