Yeah so ok Im new here and Ive already posted on the Roadrunner. I finally got a Dodge, Ive wanted a challenger since 70, Im that old. Mine is a used 2015 with 60k, Bright White and it's well kept. I am making mods to make it mine, not so much as speed. Ive been driving Chevy and GMC most of my life but could not shake the challenger. I have one and Im in love with driving again.
Welcome, George! Some of us are that old, too. I remember when Plymouth released the Plum Crazy Hemi ‘Cuda in 1970. That was like the coolest car in the whole world. There’s no way I could afford one as an adult, and then they got ridiculously untouchable in value. Then - 2008 - Dodge starts making them again! I had to get one. Mine’s a 2010. And (I think) they’re even better now, with cool stuff like bluetooth, hands-free cell phone, they’re quiet, good gas mileage. Oh… and 425HP like the original!
I just got my 6 speed. Took a dude at my plant with a 392 for a spin. He didn’t expect it. I’m not one to people much. And lazy as all get out. Used to go a day or two without leaving the house if I’m not working the normal seven days. I’ve not only left everyday, but washed it every day lol. Enjoy!
ive wanted this care since 07-08. Was always a mopar fan. It is every bit as awesome as I thought it was lol it has the super track pack so 1-2” lower on bilsteins. It honest rides smoother then my rover and I dont think I’ve driven under 80-85 on the express way and it feels like I’m doing 40
