I stuck within Mopar. I went with a 2012 Chrysler 200 Touring. Honestly, it's a ton of car for the money. So quiet, quick, and I had over $3500 in rebates off of a price $1300 below invoice.
Because I know you all care, here's the list of options!
3.6l Pentastar V6 - 283hp
6-speed auto
4-wheel ABS disc brakes
18" aluminum wheels
Projector headlights, LED tail lights
Heated mirrors
Auto interior temp control
Telescoping wheel
Keyless Entry
Remote Start
AM/FM/Satellite Radio w/ LCD Mediacenter
Compass, Trip, Economy meter
Security Alarm

Here's a pic:

I would like to thank everyone on this forum for all of their help and guidance in my adventure with Roxanne. She was a great truck, but at 130k miles on the clock, and gas prices hitting $4+ a gallon, I couldn't do it anymore.

Parts list will include:
Brand new all season floormats, Mopar, slate gray - just bought them before I went looking for cars
Superchips 3865
Hipotek throttle body
Stock rear bumper, chrome, like new
Everything else has been appraised on the truck and cannot be removed. I was going to take the roll pan off but I can't now with the contract signed. I'll post an official thread this weekend with all prices and stuff.

They will have to put a stock bumper on it to sell it, won't they? It might not be too late!

I am somewhat of a "car whisperer" so I decided to see what Roxanne had to say...

Sad too see you go but the car looks good. What size is the throttle body? I would love to take it off your hands

If you don't need a truck, that was a wise move. Not that you could have kept the truck flush in gas for the costs concurred in the car....but will eventually even out right?
