I am thinking about buying an AWD Magnum with the Hemi as my "go visit the
kids and grandkids" car. Once I move from GA to rural KY, I will be
traveling on occasion from Michigan to Alabama. Besides, getting the Magnum
would give me more inside room to carry a few more people, say out to
dinner. This way, I could keep my Dak and put a crate engine in it later.

I like the Charger platform. I like a car that can stop and turn even if it
is "European" I just think the body is ugly. I think all 4 door cars are
ugly. I am a Mopar guy. I own 5 currently, but the only Mopar I would
probably buy right now would be the SRT-4. Other cars I would consider would
be the new Mustang GT, Mini Cooper, or WRX. I would consider a Viper but I
could only put 50% down on a Viper and that is too much to finance for my
comfort.
