Default Time to say hello

HEY ALL. I'm new to this forum and wanted to say hello. (Toleo,Ohio)
I have a new Magnum. Ordered 10-14 and picked up 11-22.
Midnight blue pearl, R/t AWD, 6 in dash CD, Electronics and convenience gp. Sunroof.
3miles on the clock when new and 350 today.
I'm so new I don't even have any pictures yet.
Yesterday it got into the 60's - so I washed and waxed it before it freezzzzzzes again.
Today I pulled the wheels and waxed the insides of the rims.(Retired) I may be new to this forum but have been around cars
a while. Been hanging at corvetteforum.com last couple of years.

Olddad, welcome to the forum. You'll learn alot here. I've had my 2005 RT, Cool Vanilla with all the options for 2 months and still on my honeymoon with it. I've never owned a car that I love soo much. You almost have to have a 4 year course with the owners manual to learn everything about this car.

I don't have the mag yet but I know what you are talking about. I keep finding new features on our other car. The manual for the nav is just as long as the normal manual, which doesnt even list everything.

Can't wait to get the RT-AWD with navi, tow, and the three main packages.

Welcome. I'm new as well and just got my inferno red R/T AWD the day after Thanksgiving.
You said you just waxed your new car. I was recently told by a body shop manager to wait 6 months to wax new paint. When was your car built? Something about letting the paint "breathe".
