I sure as heck wasn't expecting THIS! They had to hide it because everyone was wanting to rent it. :D Pretty color and I have to admit, it rides really nice!

I specifically requested a Charger, and they dug this one up. Only 1600 miles on it :jester:

I am keeping it for the next 7 days (business travels), and I plan to test drive the heck out of it. We are actually looking for a new car, for the fuel economy (no, neither truck is going anywhere). So, this will be a good test drive because we have been looking at these and Mustangs.

It's not heaven . . . it's Iowa!
:thumbs: A customer of ours has some of them as part of their fleet. They're kinda stripped down, but I kinda liked it. :dunno:

Not that we have to say it, but give it a WORKOUT! :cool:

:lolup: I stomped on it once on the way home :jester: It broke the back tires loose (dry pavement) and chirped the tires while shifting up through the gears. :thumbs:

Based on what you've described.. and the badge I think I see on the fender, that one has a Hemi, right? Would that really save you much in fuel costs vs. the trucks? :dunno:

Nope, it is a V6 - 3.5L. I don't think they have rentals with Hemi's. If they do, they are stupid. But, the power in this little guy is impressive. :thumbs: I just feel like my butt is on the ground!

We don't want another Hemi. We are looking at the Mustang's new V6 also, that is suppose to get excellent gas mileage.

It will be good that I have this (for work purposes) for 7 days because I can get a good idea on its mileage and behaviors.
