My first truck

[chargerman426]

I just bought a 04 Viper truck this past week. This is my first car/truck I bought on my own. This also the first stick I have ever driven so its a lot of new things for me. I come from a Mopar family (7 out of the 8 vehicles are Mopars) and I had always wanted a Viper since I was a kid. Since my insurance wouldn't insure a Viper (I'm only 20 so I don't really blame them) I figured I would get the truck. Looks like there is a lot of good info on this site and I look forward to learning a lot about my new truck and seeing what people are doing with there trucks.

Haha it's a lot to learn touchy brakes, a stick, a lot of power, and a big tuck but I'm feeling better and better every time I drive it.

It just makes you look at mods differently. Do I get another tank of gas or new fog lights haha?

That does work but this is just a weekend play truck so i might need to fill up once a month. Its just bad right now because I have been driving a lot trying to figure out the whole stick thing.

I just got it Tuesday and have been busy getting plates and all of the other legal stuff done so I could drive it. So no pics yet but I will post them when I take them.

Its red, bone stock, 19K miles, and has the factory nav. The first things I'm looking at getting are a Cal Car Cover as its going to live outside, new projector headlights and fog lights, HIDs, LED taillights, and K&N CAI. When I bought the truck the guy gave me a deal on a set of gibson shorty headers so I will be installing those too.

Skip the k&n cai. It will slow u down. Just a drop in k&n filter is better.

I've heard that the cai isn't a better performer but not that it's worse. Has anyone done a side by side comparisons?
