Jim - I appreciate your welcome, given that this was the DTR you were looking at on eBay. Did you end up buying a Blue from up this way? I was looking at one, but someone else got it.

Keeping the bike: >50 on a bicycle gives me the same tunnel vision and PAY ATTENTION DAMMIT that >110 in a car does (without the risk of a ticket).

David:
I missed the blue one by 24 hours.:alone: Rather not talk about it.:alone:
But I think you got a good DTR, ozmarauder test drove it for me and answered THE question: "If it was your money would you buy it?" He said YES...unfortunately for me I was in the middle of hopefully buying the blue one when the DTR was relisted, so my loss, your gain. Now I'm just looking for the right car for my needs that My wife approves of...:D
Enjoy your new Marauder!
Jim
 
Jim -

There is another one up this way at a dealers in Fall River, MA, near Providence, RI.

Red, 24082 miles, asking $22,900 but likely to take less because it has been on the lot since 12/9. VIN is 2MEHM79V04X620495. I ran CARFAX. No surprises. One Massachusetts owner. I can email you the report if you are interested.

Contact at the dealer is Elisabeth DeChane 1-877-481-0143
 
Sounds like there is another satisfied Marauder owner. Hopefully Monday will get here fast enough for you...Enjoy it......
 
Welcome!

I'm new myself....and yes....real Marauders are BLACK :o (ha-ha???..not looking to get flamed...).

If i was so fortunate to find another color I'd be even MORE protective of mine and the lousy Marauder weather up here (no, take that back...I'm REAL protective of my black...notta snow flake or salt granule will EVER grace her exterior again now that I'm in control).
Other colors???they make these in Blue????!!!!! Sooooooo rare....

You've got a lot of friends in this "town" (had I known I was looking for "Smoke"...new car name thanks to my Tony Stewart lovin' wife) I would have logged in a long time ago. There is TONS AND TONS of knowledge here even for a novice like me...(even feel so bold enought to post!).

I only add in since I know there was a DTR only minutes from my home...car was in New Britain, CT and I think the dealer was savvy enough to try Ebay...not sure if they posted it on Ebay (was a dealer). It was very clean.

Watch the triple digits...only took me less than a month with mine in CT on I-95. Nice quite stretch and nice high RPM pull from the 4.6...still lived to fight another day.


:welcome1:

AzM - Maynard, MA is a non-famous old mill town just west of Concord. I've seen a black Marauder in town a few times (what first piqued my interest), so now there will be two. I suppose we will have to form our own club.

black - Wife is enough of a leadfoot that she can drive the Marauder and I'll draft behind on the bicycle.

Maynard MA once was a famous town, it was home to at that time was the world's largest computer manufacturer DIDIGTAL EQUIPMENT

Welcome aboard, maybe we'll run into one another at the Summer Nationals in Worcester over the 4th of July

America's Home Town! Had lunch there on the waterfront last Saturday.

:congrats: David. So glad to see another local join the Club.

When weather improves, we'll try for another Meet in the 495 area. Will keep you posted.
 
Larry -

Digital was in the mill buildings from 1970-90, but the complex of buildings is far older. The Maynard family (for whom town named after) were operating mills in the 1840's. They had the contact for the Union Army woolen uniforms and horse blankets. Current tenants include monster.com.

Zero minus two days
 
Congrats -David!! When I first saw the post I knew it must be you! (Blue wasn't your color) Wish you many happy miles - be nice to see it sometime - Take Care -Paul

Welcome David:

After stepping out of the Taurus you will warm up to the Marauder very quickly.

As to Maynard, I lived there up 'til '85 when I bought my first home and headed off to NH.

Now I'm in Gardner, MA, I've got an '03 300A, black with only 6800 miles.

It may have been me you saw in Maynard, I've been down that way quite a few times in the Marauder. I have a buddy that works at Village Saab.

Best,

Paul :D
 
BigGuyBigCar looks like you started something

I didn"t know there were that many MM in MA. I have seen threads by MMONK and Marauder2005 but BEEMER and Paul Hersom are new to me. I guess I'll have to get involved a little bit more. Maybe we all can get together sometime this summer and have a :beer:
