The Pot calling the Kettle black.....
That site is a hack job from info that I posted on this forum and on our website. The guy is just cutting and pasting what everyone else is providing. He seems to think that copyright laws do not apply to him.
Here's the real deal:

Your hypocrisy is astounding here.
"Searching through many of the other Dodge, Chrysler and Jeep websites, I have compiled a list of TIPS and TRICKS for the Challenger (albeit, a lot of it was "borrowed" from the Charger forum). Some of these tips and tricks you may already know of, some you would never have discovered and still some have that Wow factor.
Feel free to PM me with any other little tips and tricks that you feel need to be included or with any corrections that you may find. Have fun!"
Well, you can certainly climb down off of your high horse and quit with the two-year old "I want my Candy" rant and note that you are displaying central traits of an Obama hypocrite. Did you not say the exact very same thing above?
YOU compiled a list from borrowed "tips" and now you are somehow different or in some way "special"?
The euphemism "tips and tricks" has been used by many over the past 60 or so years to related to many things automotive, electronic and mechanical. So the title certainly is not unique to you either.
Let's look at these tips you posted and their "uniqueness" to you;
Note that 98% of your tips are actually contained within the Challenger Owner's Manual(s).

So you see, the borrowed "info" is in the Challenger Owners Manuals beginning in 2008 and is nearly identical up to 2011 releases. They are just on different pages in each of their manuals respective releases.
In closing, you "borrowed" info from another forum and posted it, now you condemn another for not only doing the same thing
-but-, paying for a web domain, a web hosting site and monthly band-width fees to put this information
FREE to anyone who needs it outside a tightly controlled
and biased automotive forum where you cannot post links to messages in other forums!
With close to a half-million hits on the site so far, I think the general Challenger public is much more appreciative, since you'll have to post 160+ more tips just to "catch up".
I think your hypocrisy knows no bounds, eh?
No need to respond bud, as I know your type and exactly who you are. It is your high and mighty attitude (among a few others) that has hurt membership here, and I do know this for a fact.
