Originally, I hated the SRT-4. Not the car itself, but seeing all of the yellow ones, the styling just didn't catch my eye the way I thought it should. When I first sat in one back in 2003 I found that I liked way more about it than what I originally thought. Fast forward a year, I'm working as a sales person at a Dodge dealer in Rhode Island. Theres a black SRT sitting in the showroom, staring at me day after dat. I fell in love with the car, I had never driven one, never even so much as started one up, but I knew I needed to have one and it had to be black.

Since we've already fast forwarded once, set yourselves forward two and a half years to the present day. After having the car for this amount of time, there isn't a thing I would do differently. The car puts a smile on my face everytime I see it, and the more I do to it, the more amazed I become with the car and what its truly capable of. Three months ago I finally made my dream come true. Having a car with a paint job designed and applied by me. The work paid off greatly, and I couldn't be happier.

My future plans for the car would definitely be a Stage 3 setup with supporting modifications, and I plan to do the entire suspension as well. Since the car isn't a track beast, but a daily king, I need the driveability to keep me going.

I'd like to thank everyone who's helped me along the way, without them, none of this would be possible.
