In 2027 the first Prowlers will be 30 years old. What will yours be like: 1) Will you still own it? How many miles will it have? 2) How many will still have the original motor? If replaced, with what? How many will Marty have went thru by then? :-) 3) How many will still be left? 4) How many will be stock, "stock", or modified? 5) What will be the hardest replacement part to find? |

1) I will still have mine or it will be in my son's name. It will have at least 175,000 miles at the rate I am driving it. 2) Will still have the original motor. Marty will be on at least his 10th motor some of which will be 6.1, 425 hp Hemi SRT's. Rebecca will not be smiling! 3) Only 8,000 will still be around. 4) Mine will be slightly modified. My son will change it back to stock - he cringes everytime I change something. 5) A windshield will be the hardest part to find. Also many will be Hot Rod's like you see at the NSRA with everything changed. |

Geez, I would be 83, who cares about cars at that point!! It will still be totally stock, that is fer shur. I did the math wrong, too. I went with the 30 yrs in the title instead of the correct way. This message has been edited by ed monahan on 08-14-2004 at 04:08 PM |

I hoping that at 79 I'll still be here and still driving the cats. If not, the Black Cat will belong to my younger son and the Candy Cat will belong to my older son. Hopefully, they will keep them just like they are now. Let's see......average about 6,000 miles a year on the Candy, that would be 196,000 miles. Average about 2,000 on the Black Cat that would about 73,000 miles. That totals for both.......269,000 (s)miles. Hopefully, the original motor?

I will be 64 and will have the most (not first) Modified Prowler out there...... LOL It would be hard to let go of this car..... No other car has meant to me as this one and as the friends I have met. ------------------ |

I'll be in my 60's.....of course I'll still have the car and probably get to drive it more and attend more events and slow my life down a little! Our kids will probably be very active on the P.O.A.then as well(my son's been eyeing the car for years)! ------------------ |

CJ - 2027 is only 23 years from now. I think you miscalculated your age. Either that or you look like a REALLY young 63 right now.  I'll be 74, still driving my Prowler.(although my Supercharged 2006 Magnum with 6.1 liter Hemi, realistic flames, 20"chrome wheels and a flame shifter knob from Real Rod still gets driven a lot also) The Prowler might be paid off by 2027! It will have about 500,000 miles and I will be on the second rotation between my fourth and fifth engines - both 5.2 litre Westech strokers. There will be 8000 to 9000 Prowlers left because most of the cars aren't driven much and most (as now) will be stock or mostly stock. The hardest parts to find will be the electronics - switches, replays, solenoids, etc. |

I'll be 63 years young and still own my yellow '02. My son who will be 25 (and in his 4th Junior year of college) and my daughter who will be 20 will be fighting over who gets it when I die because due to their education costs I will not be able to afford two Prowlers. It will have about 40,000 miles on it. It will still have the original motor in it. I guess 8,500 will still be left. In the 13 years I will probably gotten around to chroming or polishing the front suspension and replaced the brake package. Hardest replacement part to find? Current hairline and current waistline!

 I hope I'll be dead! Yeah! Yeah! Be careful what ya' wish for! But, who can say exactly WHAT will happen 23 years from now! Have ALL 'your' predictions come true you made 23 years ago? I've already outlived my wildest expectations of longevity! Based on all my accidents, I'm sorta livin' on borrowed time as it is! Uhuh! Nuff said!AC--below--Just being realistic. 80 years for men is avg! Why would I think I'd beat the odds? And, why would I want to? You can have the rest of my years right now!

Kryptonite Man of Metal - Nice to hear how positive you are for living a long life, lol. If you check out early, could you pass along any unused years to my side of the ledger? Also, send along your movie and music collection. Elf can keep the red cat,,,I have a heart |

I’ll be still driving my Prowlers. Of course I will first get my left signal blinking before I start out. I will be slowly pulling out in traffic without looking. The other people can see me. I will stick to the fast lane, crawling along at 35 or 40 mph. Funny even at rush hour there is no one in front of me on the freeway. I will be going to the bank everyday to check that they still have my money. I will go by the bank between 12:00 and 1:00 or between 5:00 and 6:00. I guess I will have to drive them only on “nice days”. The Depends I will be wearing will make me too tall to fit in the cat with the top up. I will be still playing my Elvis CD’s and Beethoven ones also. Even though CD’s will have gone the way of the “eight track” player today. I will still be wondering why they don’t make a “78 rpm” record player for the Prowler. Oh, as to my Prowlers, they will both be the only two “stock” Prowlers left in the world. The hardest part to find will be the Good Year Run Flat tires. ------------------ |

Having fun at 91, driving Pumpkin and the other collection of cars. Just had the kat out yesterday, got gas. Not bad, gas went down to $37.50 a gallon with the special POA discount.

...How about we have a POA meeting in Vegas in 2027......could hit a Wayne Newton show....he will probably still be performing and look about 30 years old.... ...my dad quit driving in his late seventies.....he recently wanted to start driving again at age 82....he is so blind he can't tell who is who, but thought he could find his way to the local "hangout for old guys"...I told him if he could pass a driving test with me first, we would go to the license bureau.... that ended it |

Tangled, Take him out to a big empty parking lot and let him take a spin in one of your Vipers! I hope that when I am too old to drive may son does that for me with my Prowler. Dale |

Dale.... The last few years my dad and I have taken a Viper trip to his hometown in Ky ....we usually don't let much pass us on the road.....he can't see much at all, but he can feel the power and speed....we hit some stretches, passing strings of cars in the 145mph range and he is still beggin' for more.....just like a little kid when it comes to fast cars....he used to take me thru the Ky mountains so fast when I was a kid, the tires would scream all the way up and down the mountain....scared me to death....those trips were in fifties and sixties Fords and Chevy convs....we always had a late model conv with a big engine....lots of good memories....I don't think he can physically do much with a car anymore.... |
