Push off delivery of the 392 for another week as well. 😎
392 ended up selling to a dealer in Greensboro yesterday morning. They came in an orange TRX to pick it up.

I picked it up yesterday. It's the redeye version. Basically a 4 Door Demon. 2.7L Blower and all Demon internals.

That's awesome. Looks great! And I'm not surprised it breaks them loose at those speeds. lol 😎

And that TRX is fine. I haven't seen an orange one in person... only blue and gray. The blue looks fantastic. My wife and I were at a stop light a few months ago and I'm looking ahead, not paying attention and she says "Ok, now that is actually a manly looking truck." Curious WTH she was referring to, I look over and it's a TRX. I had to explain to her the awesomeness of what she was looking at. Badass trucks.

I’ve had a blue one on order since August at $9590 below sticker. Just a waiting game. They’re certainly gorgeous trucks.

Why are you going through so many vehicles so fast? Got a 392, bam... sold. Got the Charger and already have a TRX on order as well? Explain yourself, man!

The more you get to know me, the more you'll understand. Lol.

Some of these are just to take advantage of the market and make money. I had a 2020 Trackhawk a couple years ago that I owned for 6 days and made roughly $8k. This last Trackhawk cleared $21K, the 392 I had for 5 days and made $2k'ish, and I had an AT4 a couple months ago for 3 weeks that pulled $6k.

It's all a side hustle to fund Pain Train. I have a personal philosophy that life is too short, so drive what you want; die broke. Use the banks money, not yours and in the end flip the car for 30 days or less in interest. This Redeye will likely last longer than most. The Hellcat market has lost its mind in perceived value. It's just a game to play. I have a huge passion for all things mechanical, especially cars, and it's a lot of fun. I don't know how many vehicles I've gone through in the last 5 years, but it's a few.

I'd like to hang out with you. You're my kind of people.

What's everyone's plans for this year? As far as wheeling goes. Pain Train should be done enough to wheel by May/June. Hopefully have it done for 2-3 test runs at Uwharrie.

My target is the Ozarks Jamboree.

I'll move West to Ouray from there and North to Holy Cross (camp there again, which was badass last time), then through MN to Drummond Island and back down through Indiana. I've got a badge I need to clean up at Red Bird. Then home.

Shorter trip for this year.

In 2023 there will be another trip, but South through Arkansas and Texas and on to California (Big Bear) then up to the Rubicon. Not sure what else after that. It will depend on who's going with me.

I'd like to hit the trails some w/ the 392, but mainly do some camping, etc.

I'd also like to get the engine out of my '01 TJ and start getting things ready for the LS swap.
