Cool

2001 380 Avenger w/ 496 Mag HO's. We keep ours on the trailer in the driveway. I enjoy coming home after a sh@!%y day at work and seeing our boat. Instant pick me up. We boat mostly in the Chesapeake Bay and Potomac and Patuxent rivers. We trailer to Florida at least 3-4 times a year. We suffer from "Keys Disease". Also do long weekend trips to Ocean City or Virginia Beach. We love our PQ!!!!

AA

P.S. Would love to be part of a PQ get together

Avengerangel,

What kind of speeds are you getting with the 496 package?

Avangerangel, I got a couple questions for you.

1) Your job can't really be that bad can it ? I mean, it gives you enough money to have one awesome boat. Right?

2) What do you tow this bad boy with ?

We just sold our second PQ, a 1994 290. The new owner just loves the boat. Our first boat was a 270. Both great boats.

When PQ splashed our boat (early Dec) they called my husband all excited and said they got it to 79. The most we have gotten is 76 (GPS) in 6 footers off the Fla Keys with 2 people, fuel ect. Up here in Maryland the best is 73 (GPS). We went ahead and bought the 5 yr warranty so any mods will have to wait until the bugs are worked out. There have been a couple of recalls ect on the 496's. We are happy..... for now. He he

My husband has a Dodge 3500 Cummins diesel dually that is bright red in color. He just bought me an Excursion PSD and its white with ugly brownish/bronze trim. Soon to be all white. With 2 kids its alot more comfy in the Excursion. We havent towed with the Excursion yet but I do have one of those little props in the tow hitch. And yes my job is usually very enjoyable ( I run the office for one of husbands companies) but this is an example of a recent bad day..... one of our guys is towing a backhoe on a flatbead trailer. The chain securing the load snaps going around a turn and the boom and bucket swing out and total 7 parked cars. Now wouldnt you call that a very bad day? Luckily those kinds of days are few and far between. We are extremely blessed.
