Thanks, but no thanks, Demon1. If I wanted 91 degrees I'd go back to CA. At least the humidity would be lower there. And if I were in CA and wanted it warmer yet, it'd be a short drive to the nearest fire.

These days I largely stop functioning at 80 degrees, but the cold doesn't seem to bother me as long as its not windy.
I get it. This heat and humidity isn't my preferred either, but I've never lived outside FL. Good driving and racing weather is just around the corner for us. Finally!

California is a beautiful state if only they could eliminate most of those living in the big cities. Those metro area crazies ruin things for everyone else.

I probably had it as good as it gets in CA, living in an area with nothing but twisty canyon roads to go play on.
And one of these days I might trailer the Challenger back there to relive things a bit.

But it'll have to be a day when all the bicyclists that took over the roads are on strike for some reason.

Let me know how you like that Ceramic Coating on the Sublime...I have opted to hold off on it for now as I just don't think it will make that much difference in the appearance...and I don't mind washing my car...just like I don't mind changing my own oil...many folks don't care to, but I guess I've been doing it for so long, and been involved in maintenance of some form or another for so long now that I just prefer it...kinda like shifting a standard transmission...

I'm doing the ceramic coat for ease of maintenance. I had quartz finest reserve on my race red GT500 and was thrilled with how well it held up and made cleaning easier. Seemed to provide some protection as well. GT500s produce a lot of brake dust much like Hellcats, the ceramic coating on the wheels made it so easy to keep the wheels clean

So can you just like "rinse them off" kinda deal??
Also, I have heard (or rather read) that there is maintenance that must be done to the coating as well...what is involved in that??

Quick rinse no detergent for dust

Use their waterless wash for most cleaning, like a quick detail spray. Pretty awesome.

Use their detergent for full water wash. I could drive my GT500 for a week & wash & dry in less than an hour

Not aware of any maintenance needed other than using compatible products on cquartz. I’ll ask my guy when I drop car off

I'm currently waiting for my PPF, ceramic coating, and tint to be done. I think the ease of maintenance will be worth it plus the added protection from the self-healing wrap. At least for what I'm getting, there isn't any specific maintenance other than general cleaning.

No, I don't think you can order one yet. However, I did notice today that the Dodge Power Dollars deal is still going on. You can't order a 2019 but if you can find one in dealer stock, you can still get the discount!!

Yep, my problem is I live in Mexico, no power dollar here and only 3 2019 non widebody available in dealership inventories nationwide anyway.

Forgive my international ignorance, but won't the dealers there do trades with the dealers here? I know if I find one that is at a dealer 500 miles away, I can go to my local dealer and it is possible for them to make a trade to get it for me...might be worth inquiring about...

They only trade between mexican dealers and Dodge Mexico has its own offers and discounts, none of the ones you have in the US have any validity here . We do have a black friday offer but only on the 3 non widebody that are left and it’s about a 4.5k discount not being able to choose the color I want, no thanks.
