Hello everyone.
Just bought a Nitro SXT last Monday for the wife. We traded in her 03 Durango SLT 5.9 with 95K miles for it. So far she likes it. I bought a trailer hitch and wiring harness for it today, so we can pull our boat. I will install it either today or next weekend. I have been a Mopar fan for years. I have owned 5 Dodge Challenger's, 1 Cuda, 2 Dakota's and the Durango. Now I have a Dakota, SRT4 and the Nitro.

Thanks everyone.
Here is a pic of the hitch I installed today. It is a HiddenHitch, I paid $120.00 for the hitch and $36.00 for the flat plug wiring. Night shots FTL.

Just a stage1 and cat-back exhaust. Fast enough for this grandpa.

You bet I do.
Here is a picture of my 73 Challenger 340/4 Speed.
Bought it in Sept. 1980 and a hit and run driver ran a redlight and T-boned me in Feb. 1999. Don't remember the accident. Spent 12 days in hospital, 6 days in ICU.

Traded in the 07 Nitro for a 11 Nitro. The 07 never gave us a problem and had 103K miles. Wife wanted a new one since they are not making a 2012 Nitro. The 07 cost us new $18,500, 2011 cost us $19,000. Switch out the trailer hitch since the bolt pattern is the same. Love the color inside and out.
Couple of pics

Fantastic looking Nitro :rep:
Thank you for posting that you love your Nitro, all we have had of late are complaints.
The happy Nitro owners are very quiet about their love affairs....:chuckle:
