Thanks to Mardy from Amazing Auto for hooking me up once more with an awesome ride.
Here's a few quick pictures, nothing fancy as I haven't even washed it yet!

Last couple pictures
I forgot to snap some pictures of the seats, I have 2 child seats in the back, and there is still enough room for someone to squeeze into the middle seat. It really is quite roomy..
But then my last car was a 4dr golf...That was a squeeze for us.

Very nice ride. I was down in Phoenix this spring and caught myself a few times saying "That Montero looks really good". I think That Challenger looks alot like a Montero, but way more kick ass! I didn't realize you could stash all that under the floor in the back. Excited to see what you do to it, and hear how you enjoy it.

Preliminary fuel economy results show 10.3L/100 city driving, with AC.
If that kind of results hold, that is excellent, better than expected.
Considering my last vehicle (2001 golf, 2.0 auto) burned 10-11 in same conditions at 1/3 the capacity.
I can't wait to take this ride on the highway. I'm predicting (hoping for) 7.5-8L/100.

Nodding would be nice...down the road.
Right now my vehicle budget is tapped out.
But that light bar sure looks nice.

In one of your posted pictures, you asked what the little mirror on the fender is for? It's so you can see the curb in order to assist with parallel parking. I tried to modify mine so it would look further aft (so I could see vehicles over-taking on the left), but there wasn't enough upward movement for my liking.
Nice looking ride. You can be the prez of the Challenger-crowd - I've got a Pajero.

hey Thanks!
I figured out it was for viewing the corner, there is also a tiny round one I think for seeing how far you are from the front...
I would rather learn the dimensions of vehicle than to rely on those..lol
My delica had a nice fisheye one
