Default Happy with my new purchase!

Hi.

Just picked up a used (only 200 miles), so basically brand spanking new metallic silver 06 Magnum SXT AWD for a great deal. Came loaded with sunroof, sound package w/ satellite radio, side airbag/safety package, roof rack, power seat, trunk organzation package, etc. I was looking for an awd wagon for a while. Never even considered the Dodge. Tested the usual Suburus,Volvo, BMW, etc. Even looked into the Element and Pilot. I drive to the mountains a lot so I wanted the awd and I wanted to get decent gas mileage with sporty looks. Tough thing to find. Happened to come across the Magnum, went in, test drove it, bought it the next day. Has everything I need in a car. Just need to get a hitch mount and add some mud flaps and I'm set. I like having this car. Hardly anyone around me drives one, it's mostly BMW,Volvo,Lexus things. So this thing is a real head turner. Even my wife with her FX-35 thinks it pretty cool. Looking forward to driving it and maybe making a few small mods.

I'll read thru the forums for some tips/advice and look at all the pics.

Well, I've had it for a week now and am really enjoying my new car. Had to get some bike rikes for the roof rack and ordered a hidden hitch for the back. Got some new all weather mats and added some splash guards. Hopefully take it up to the mountains this weekend for its first long haul.

Was thinking about adding a lower grill to match the top grill. Are there any that are easy to install and where can I find a decent quality piece?

Also looking for an exhaust tip nicer than what's on there now. Links?

Thanks for your help.
