Good on mileage great in all type of weather for a low car.
I like it because it is roomy. I had this car for a long time and still runs good.

It is a decade old and runs great.
I love my car it is still running efficiently and smoothly. The only problem I have had with it is when I got my oil change once and it had a leak because of a broken oil pan. Other than that everything's still fine. The reliability of the car is great, it is a family car, so it is built up on mileage, but it has not broken down in us yet. The comfort is excellent nothing to complain about there. The features are a bit older so you do not have things like USB ports or Bluetooth but it is nothing serious the radio still works also the air-conditioning and there is an AUX port.

Its a 2008 Dodge Charger and I love my car. It goes 0-60 in about 10 seconds. I bought it used and i drive it everyday.
It's in great shape and its been handled with lots of care.

Great car at a great price
I love my car. The ride and the performance are amazing. The only drawback is the gas mileage but that's not why you drive a muscle car. The car accelerated excellently even with an automatic transmission I can still peel out at will. The handling is a little rough in the snow.

It had lots of horsepower
Never gave me a problem performance was excellent. It was a very fast car 5.7engine with all leather inside. It also had two screens one for the navigation and the other for DVD players. It also was great to travel.I love the inside of my car it was so nice with a the huge screen it had

Rides smoothly and is very safe and secure.
None at all. It's a great car, it runs very well. Great mileage. Nothing more to say. Wish it was a bit bigger.

The first big maintenance visit is after 100,000 miles. Not every 30, 60 or 90 miles.
This is so dependable and only has to go for regular oil changes.
accountCircle Eric W
It's capable of going very fast. It starts off and accelerates quickly.
I love everything about my vehicle except the fact that it's getting up in maintenance. The paint is chipping and I would change the interior. Every time I take it for maintenance it seems like there is something new that needs to be repaired. It's about time for a new car.

Most expensive LEMON
Nothing but problems since the day I bought it. Transmission,battery,start button,nav/radio.. Dodge service was awful. Hard to see out of ,bad gas mileage,too heavy and big (built from a charger model) to be a real sports car. $40k for a super lemon! I'm done with Dodge forever since this car.what a shame.

The car is 4 doors, and the size is big.
The only thing I don't like about the car is the size, but besides that, I love the way it drives, very smooth.
