Pumpkin Carving...eh...Mopar on the mind

What do you think of the pumpkin this year...

How fast is your house?

We were looking at taking advantage of a 1.1 Million dollar house that we could have probably picked up and finished for about 500k. It was a beautiful house with suspended garage and 12' ceilings in the basement. The views from this house are second to none and the layout was perfect. But then I started thinking, how fast can a house really go?? Surely for that price it shoudl be able to do 0-60 in under 5 seconds?? It turns out that houses aren't fast...in fact, the average speed of a house is about 1/8 inch every 30 years...

So, I decided to go out any buy my dream car instead. You may remember the post below from March of 2008, which is when they announced the new 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8.

So I don't have pictures yet, but I purchased the Hemi Orange Limited Edition Challenger shown in my other post. This baby comes with a 6.1 Litre Hemi V8 that puts out 425hp stock. I don't have accurate estimates on the 0-60, but it is under 5 seconds. It has the MyGIG that plays movies, nav, Hard Drive, etc...

Doing my part to stimulate the economy :)
