GENERAL COMMENTS
 
"Fell in love with the look of this car from the start.(Charger r/t Daytona go mango).After shopping other muscle/family cars and realizing that either the price tag was way to high and or the interior way to small for a family car.I found myself behind the wheel of my new charger. This car blended price, room,comfort,and muscle into one vehicle for a reasonable price and keeps on giving. I drove the car from Connecticut to Oklahoma fully loaded with family and stuff crammed to the eyeballs and still got 25.5 miles to the gallon with the mds system. City driving can be rough on mileage, sometimes as low as 9 mi. a gallon, 15 if I act my age and don't bury the pedal all the time. With four hefty adults and hi speed on the Taconic parkway I could begin to feel the weight of the car through the braking system. The tranny takes getting used to as it will shift up as soon as your foot lightens up on the gas pedal. I guess that's why they have the slap shift so you can downshift without having to bury the pedal again. All in All a Great car. I have had it two trouble free years and still enjoy driving it any chance I get. "

"My wife drove the car first. When I saw her eyes get big during acceleration, I knew 'this' Charger R/T was sold. The best and most comfortable car I've ever driven. Hemi power, plenty of room, knockout styling, the R/T has it all. Draws a crowd anywhere it's parked. Mustang GTs fear it. Drivers of other 'fast' cars avoid eye contact at stoplights. Has an evil sharklike, sinister aura about it. Love it,love it, love it........... "

"I am a field service technician that drives my Charger for work on all types of roads and all weather conditions. I put routinely, 75,000 miles per year on the vehicle and I am a very aggressive driver. THIS IS A SUPERB VEHICLE! Handling is sure and confident; The 5-Speed Auto-stick is super; Gas mileage is excellent. 3.5HO V-6 that outperforms anything I have come up against. A Must Buy!"

"I did not even like this car when i first seen it! but when my girlfriend wanted to test drive one i went along and i fell in love ( with the charger that is! :) the power is there when you need it, it handles great, this car drives itself on the hwy! very smooth over bumps and the turning circle is good for a large car. no more backing up to pull into tight spaces. and you can just feel the eyes on you when you drive down the road! "
Christopher S. (Fort George G Meade , Maryland - May, 2006)
