Is that the nonspeaking, incestuous family where one if them literally barks?

It is, the guy who films it actually tries to help the family so thankfully he isn't just making fun and badgering them because of their situation. One video he is taking them to Walmart and there is a signed book he is selling to try and help them. Just to be clear I'm not promoting him or them or anything involved with this. Lol.

@2pac one of my QC issues.....sub was rattling now I know why. Cranked down so tight it was shattered. View attachment 135189 View attachment 135190 View attachment 135191 View attachment 135192
UPDATE: Called dealer, explained what I found on the rattling stereo. They wanted me to bring the car in for eval, but I sent pics instead. Part was ordered and arrived today. I was asked to bring the car in and they wouldn't let me just bring the broken part and swap them. Fine, but I want my buddy master tech to do the work, no problemo.

I arrive and go to service (first time ever LOL). Conversation went like this:

Rachel the advisor: I need your keys Mr. Speedy.
Me: No. No one can start the car.
Rachel puzzled: OK, please take me to where you parked.
Me: took her behind the service dept where I always park to pick up parts
Rachel: Please start your vehicle.
Me: You need me to start the car to replace the subwoofer?
Rachel perturbed: I have to connect our link system to create the ticket.
Me: Oooook
Rachel: I need your key please.
Me: No
Rachel: I need to put this tag on the key
Me: I'll just put it in my pocket

Rachel proceeds to connect up, and I tell her not to be so serious and relax. She replied "that's just my personality" and I said "well they can't take your birthday away".

About that time my tech buddy pulls up and says "man you ready to swap out that sub?"
Me: Hey can you tell Rachel to stop giving me a hard time about this car? She's mad I won't let her sit in it, touch it, or even look in it's general direction and laughed.
Rachel: Mr. Speedy no one asked to sit in your vehicle.
Me: :oops:

Ended up just working with my buddy, pulled the car in to his bay, took 2 minutes to swap the sub, then we chatted for a few. Took the rear view mirror tag back to Rachel and told her thanks and left.

I'm used to going in and cutting up with everyone and Rachel was SUPER serious lol.

Anyway, this fixed the rattle in the stereo. I originally thought it was due to the lack of sound deadening but turns out it was just the busted sub.

Gotta love service people with no sense of humor and/or no knowledge of vehicles. I am amazed she didn't tell you that you had to leave the car for at least two weeks in their back lot before they could get to it, like they did when I checked in about getting the TPS sensors replaced under recall on my 900-mile, 22 Redeye. I told him thank you for the offer but I will do it myself and put in for the reimbursement from Dodge. While telling him this I could see the 1990's vintage "Rim-Shredder 5000" tire machine in the back corner of their service bay. The service writer also said that my insurance would be responsible for any damage to the wheels or tires done during dismounting/remounting and not the dealership. Yeah right! That was the last time I contacted that dealer for anything. I ended up buying the recall sensors and doing it myself at a local rim repair company with an amazing no-contact machine and then having a dealership in Pennsylvania verify the paperwork and update their system so I would stop getting the recall reminders.

Oh, and that reminds me of the second local dealer I checked with on an unrelated matter with our daily driver car. The service writer mentioned they recently replaced an engine under warranty in a Redeye Challenger. It took them four months to get it approved and the engine delivered. They then installed it, parked it outside, waiting for the customer to come in (he was only an hour away) and in that 60-minute time span, the car was stolen from the front lot, directly in front of the showroom. No one saw anything. Now how is that for an inside job! The car sat in their back lot for 4 months and wasn't stolen until an hour after the new engine was installed.
:eek: Inside job, much?

I share stuff here earlier than everywhere else, but here's what the 500 mile break-in looked like. Saw some cool places in the Demon.

Anyone been to one of these NMCA events and they enforce this NHRA license requirement? I'm betting (hoping) this car runs lower than 10.00 lol.

"A Valid NHRA competition license is mandatory for cars running 9.99 or quicker, at an NHRA Member Track. NHRA/IHRA competition license mandatory at an IHRA Member Track."
