Yeah I did that a few years back. Kinda went with the Dale theme. I won a contest with it in a local newspaper. $50.00 bucks but OK! haha

 

Believe it or not I do work in there. But I have a lot of fun to. It has almost caused a few traffic crashes from people slamming on the brakes to look at it!

Here is my new man-cave. Still getting it all together, but its coming along... Building a larger bench, more tools/air compressor, some more storage shelving, heat, fridge/kegerator, and that should do it. Have most of the stuff bought, just no time to get out there to play. Thing I love most...I have the only key and its a nice walk from the house. NO ONE BOTHERS ME!!!! I also plan to add concrete slabs to form a back-wards "L" around the front to the right side, then install a basketball hoop for the boys and EVENTUALLY add another stall off the back that will accommodate my truck. Doesn't fit in the attached garages or my man-cave... :o(

Thanks Guys! This is what happens when you have to much time on your hands! hahahha

 

I have a lot of fun searching and finding new things to add to it. Sometimes The things I find sometimes are just too expensive so I make them myself. The wall tiles for example I made from MDO cut on an angle and then chamfered the edge. Floor tiles are Race Deck. They were the most expensive part at 2 grand for the 24x24 floor. Kind of went with the Dale Sr. and Jr. theme with posters, etc. Some banners etc. from the NASCAR store in Vegas. Some things I have ordered on line. Some of the banners I have simply printed off of the Internet like the Team Chevy logos and then I mount them on black foam-core board. Some of the bigger printouts I do at work on our 48" plotter. It does not take as much as you would think.

 

It is fun. A guy in my town here has done pretty much the same thing in Harley theme. Orange and black. It looks very good too.

SHE FITS!!! It was close, and took some nice and easy driving while hanging out of the window but she cleared!! I bought this house 3 months ago and never attempted to even try as it looked like a no-go! I was upset as this pig has been outdoors for her whole life and then planned on building an add-on. Last night I said F-it and gave it a go. I wanted to just pull the front in so I had light to add some oil, but then I got brave and kept creeping. I have 3' in the front and back with it pulled in and the door closed. The woman doesn't use the attached garage as she sucks at driving and likes to rip mirrors off. I am about to move my lawn equipment into that one so I have more room for the cool stuff.

      I have thought an EV might have some practical value in extending the life of the ICE members of ones fleet. Now....I'm convinced of it. I've been letting my better half access Raven (Mitsubishi Mirage) for her needs while Dizzy has been in the shop. Being the fuel freak I am and given the fact Raven is capable of over 60 mpg in clean air on a warm day I was taken back by the wife's ability to take a car that had used a half a tank of gas that to that point had returned a value of 57 mpg and return in with a decimating 51 mpg for that same tank in that same day in a 15 mile round trip of short hop errands and a stop in the drive through at Micky D's.  😱   Trust me on this. It would take the remainder of that tank driven on the highway to return that tank to just 54 mpg. This is not a Mitsubishi issue. This is an ICE issue that is magnified in vehicles capable of such high fuel economy values. On a percentage basis your 1500 does the same thing. Short hopping an ICE consumes a good deal more fuel and in doing so provides zero additional useable outputs. That entire volume of fuel is wasted in diluting the cylinder walls oil films, creating crankcase moisture and acid content and the resultant wear.    Enter the SLATE. All of that is avoided and the ICE's advantage in range and made useful at reduced wear for your ICE!   Kind'a cool.

      Back in the day people would buy cars based on performance. The charger posted does 0-60 in 3.3 seconds. And it’s fully loaded.  It has a decent warranty and will fit most anyone’s needs. Remember the original Hemi? 90 day warranty. 25K mini truck or that car? I’d go with the car. It wouldn’t fit my perimeter. If I could just talk my wife out of her Genesis. It would be perfect for her.

      Let's pivot this back. Someone said they wanted pictures.   Even better, there's already video. Pre-prod prototypes are already on the road and they're letting the press drive them.   JerryRigEverything did a good review. I really enjoy his content and EV adventures, so I was thrilled when he had the chance to review a Slate:

      The Charger EV was stillborn. Wrong car at the wrong price for Dodge's intended audience. Now at a good price with fire-sale discounts, and still not selling, it's still very much the wrong car. Again, Dodge's intended audience. I believe a lot of Stellantis' EV blunders were all under Tavares' regime at Stellantis...the board convinced him to move on. Neat car, just wasn't received on the level that would sustain mass production.   Dodge is headed in a better direction for its core business. I didn't think there was anything left to get excited about re: the Durango after its 15 year run, but they're just now releasing a 392 version that should price out in the low 40's. Nicely done. I'm not sure I would touch anything Stellantis makes with a 10' pole these days, but the Durango is still mostly parts designed like 3 parent companies ago so maybe it's still OK?
