Good luck HG!

As you know, I rented an '08 3.7 for a week and although I found it lacking compared to the Alpha, I still thought it was awesome! When I came to these boards I was reading posts where people complained about acceleration, which I always thought was odd since I drove that 08 for a week, I felt it had fantastic pickup and range considering how heavy and stout the vehicle is. After I read your post I now understand it was the refinements made to the 08's that is the difference and that the 06 and 07 drivers are not loony after all!

I will be rooting for you man! Make SURE to post some pics! What color you going with??

I have to tell you, I have an 08 and an 07. Can't tell a difference in either one of them except for hers has 18" rims with the Bridgestone Duelers and I have 16" rims with the crap stock Goodyear's. She and I mess around leaving the light side by side once and a while, neither one of us really pulls away from the other. NOW, I could tell the difference between both and the 06 when we test drove. Not drastic, but there is a slight difference.

Patches,
Does your Alpha have the 5 cylinder engine??? If so, do you mind telling me what the Alpha runs for $$$ .......I've only seen one Alpha and it had the V8 and the price was up there.......I might consider doing something with my 08' Lux if they don't hurry up and fix the issue with it...

The Alpha is the V8 model. It only comes with the 5.3 L V8 and Lux pkg. I added the offroad pkg. along with lots of other goodies. The Alpha starts at ~$39K sticker but I negotiated a few thou off when I ordered mine in Sept. I took a gamble and took the discount over any possible incentives/rebates which I told the dealer he could keep if anything materialized by the time I took delivery. Well, incentives didn't come out until later so my deal ended up being the sweet one.
