any 300 owners out there?

It's fabulous.

How is it handling in the snow?

Not bad on level ground but it get's tricky in my development which is hilly.

Any known issues at this point? Thinking about the Hemi.

Traded in our 04 Crossfire tonight for a Cool Vanilla Limited. Waiting for it to come in from another dealer.

Tough negotiations on this car.. they are selling at MSRP.

But Chrysler has $1000 rebate to finance with them.

We were $400 off, so they split the baby with me and I hate $200 and they ate the other $200.

More to come...

People like you are what keeps our economy going. A 2004 traded for a 2005. If you paid cash for cars you would not do that any more.

Pick up my metallic silver Limited tomorrow. Peter, re: your comments concerning snow and hills, are you using snow tires or the stock 4 seasons? Anyone else have experience or recomendations for snow tires on the 300?

Don

she is... nice car people! I live in the south... we have rain not snow and it did well on the way home in a shower... Just my luck a brand new car and it storms on the way home! :(

Art, I was just trying to please my wife... she thought she had to have that cute little Crossfire... so I got it.. I could not stand the cramped car.

So I convinced her to go the 300 route.. now that is a car we can both drive!

I did not pay cash, but was not upside down either.

Just trying to make her happy.. you married men know what task that is! :)

I'm using the stock tires and I don't use the 300C if there is any threat of serious snow. I still have my Suzuki Aerio which I use most of the time. Long Island is fairly flat. I live on one of the higher points and there are some steep inclines in my development. Many times, you'll find some cars left at the the entrance into the development because they couldn't make it up the hill to get in.

Why's that a bad thing? It gives you a chance to make sure all the features work: defrost, wipers, ABS, etc.

hmm. If they want cute, most would try to convince the wife to like a cute little Neon. A lot cheaper than a crossfire.

"If a man alone in the woods speaks, and his wife cannot hear him, is he still wrong?"

I've been married 28 years. Gave up on that long ago.

well so far so good.. 3 days into ownership and she still likes her new 300!

We might be setting a record! :)

Wish me luck!
