Just curious as to whether or not there are any Marauder owners out here in Colorado. If so, drop me a line. I recently obtained a 300A and I'm looking to see how those of us at altitude are enjoying these cars. In the past two years, I think I've seen a grand total of four, including mine.

Welcome to the Collective. Resistance to moding is futile, you will be assimilated.

I was wondering who the first Colorado owner would be on here. I lived in Boulder for 9 years, Denver for a little while, and my new wife and I just got back from our honeymoon which was spent mostly behind the front range, Estes Park, Aspen, etc. We were there for 9 days total, and saw no Marauders anywhere. Where in Colorado are you?

Welcome GEO815, you are in trouble now! These cars and this site will take over your life. Have a great ride. Go to the "Add Yourself to the Marauder Map post" and put up the first and as far I know only pin in Colorado. My favorite state. Dennis:beer:

I live in Larimer County, about 90 miles northwest of Denver.

In the past three years, I've only seen two MM's in Denver. Ironically, I saw a MM the other night in Old Town Fort Collins, a couple nights before I got mine.

Congrats. on your recent marriage. I finally took the plunge about a year and a half ago. It took us a year to find the time to take a honeymoon. Spent two weeks bumming around Alaska and actually saw a Marauder in Anchorage.

Well I bought my 03 Marauder in July and this inronically is my first post on this site. I have been a member here for a few months but have had too many things on my plate the last few months to get started on my Marauder yet. Well anyway I too have wondered how many people from Colorado are on this site. I live in Highlands Ranch and of course my MM is black. It is my daily driver and I am all over the Denver area with it. Honk if you see me. I have only seen one a silver one. I even had to test drive them in California when I go there on business before I bought one because I could not find one in Colorado. Funny thing is I saw one in a Dealers lot last July and bought it. Anyway post up if you are in the area maybe we can meet up for coffee sometime.

here is a link of my Marauder pics. http://www.imagestation.com/album/index.html?id=2123863059

I'll definitely let you know when I head into town. A couple gearhead guys I work with are waiting to see the car, as they've never seen one up close (go figure). Being a daily driver, have you noticed any issues with the wonderful fuel we have to deal with up here? Mine's running fine in stock trim, but that programmer is looking pretty tempting. I'm not sure how the sea-level tunes will respond at 5000+ ft. ASL. The JLT cold air package came yesterday, but I've been busy finishing off the car's new home (garage), so I haven't had the time to install it yet.

Geo815 pm me when you are coming to the Denver area next. Perhaps we can meet for coffee. I have only seen two Marauders in the Area mine and a silver one.

I have run both 89 and 92 octane and I get better mileage wiht the 92. At our altitude you can typically run lower octanes. Of course you will never get the same power at this altitude as you will at sea level. I will likely do a new program on mine in the spring.

Let me know when you are in town. Keith
