Nothing quite says “high-performance muscle car” like a popup ad for a Mopar Extended Warranty covering your whole center console. That’s right, Dodge Charger owners are now experiencing an exciting new feature: pop-up ads that appear every time the vehicle stops at a light. This absolute garbage feature was spotted in the wild, take a look here.

    A wreck like that is my one fear…

    Doesn’t take much of a hit to “total” an older vehicle like that. 🤷‍♂️

      It really doesn’t. I also dislike the fact it can be more difficult to find some parts for older cars too, so even if you wanted to salvage, it may not be viable.

        Haven’t run into the “finding parts” problem…

        That may be a regional feature though. Driven older vehicles my whole life and never had too much trouble finding parts… even from junk yards if necessary.

        I have many junk yards within 50 miles, most within 20. 🤷‍♂️

        And I’m familiar with local/online companies that provide NOS as well as new fab for older vehicles.
