Has it got a Hemi? Oh yeah. And, it gets 13 gallons to the mile.

Dodge’s plan to grab strife by the horns and turn things around: the new ‘old’ muscle car fav, the Challenger. Much as I appreciate a muscle car, (once a proud owner of a ’68 Chevelle with a 327, while my brother had the ’68 Plymouth GTX 440 and Hurst competition shifter thank you very much), I question if will this help them at this point. Especially a limited production run of under 7,000. Maybe Detroit just enjoys Toyota kicking its ass, especially with fuel efficient cars including the new iQ. I don’t get it. Is the reason Dodge sales are down really because they haven’t appealed to the He-man Hemi crowd enough? Guess the Magnum wasn’t cutting it then. While the new ride looks sweet enough, probably sounds cool as hell and will surely have the horses, at 13/18 mpg, how many times a week will you be filling it? (Find out here.)
