    Since I am due with our first baby in about a week, I wanted to get a daily driver that was suited for a car seat, but still safe and enjoyable to drive. My Challenger is 2-doors with a roll cage, so not too practical and my other cars are also 2-doors. The Excursion is a bit large to haul around all the time, although it's handy to have. So, a friend was selling his 2006 300 SRT8 with only 29k miles and every option available, and I got a deal I couldn't pass up!

    Current mods: Corsa cat-back, K&N CAI, 180˚ thermostat, catch can, 275 width tires, independent DVD players in the front headrests.

    Of course it's raining this evening, so I just snapped a quick pic of her in the driveway, and will take some more tomorrow if the weather is nicer.

    I drove it a couple days last week and fell in love! I know this will be a great vehicle for me and baby Preston, and I'm excited to have it.

    Nice! DVD player in the headrest, with a baby. That's worth about $20K right there.

    Another baby with an SRT taxi. Cool! Madeline makes engine sounds when we go out in Marc's Lexus because it doesn't sound like my car. :)

    And some with Kris' Charger SRT8 ... (I should have gotten the Challenger out, but it was tucked away in the other garage.)
