Fantastic Car

We bought this 2006 R/T 5.7 AWD new in 2007. Best decision we ever made. With over 90,000 miles on the vehicle we have replaced the tires, wiper blades, 1 tie rod end, and the radiator. Yes, still on the original brakes, and I am not easy on them. We have a new 4x4 Ram, but if we are taking a trip in bad weather we take the Magnum. This thing is a monster in snow. I stuck in once. I drove 12 miles with a foot of snow on the ground and got to within a block of the house. (Shouldn't have stopped at that uphill corner). You can run a snowy turnpike at normal speeds without a worry. Use cruise, it will detect a spin and let off the gas quicker than you can, Amazing. As for space, we have hauled more than you could imagine. 10' 2x4s "IN" the car with doors/windows closed. About the only thing it can't haul is a 4x8 sheet of plywood. Looking to buy a second one just for fun. Maybe an SRT.

BEST CAR EVER!

I have literally owned hundreds of cars over the past 40 years (was in the automobile business) and this 5.7 Hemi powered Magnum R/T is by far my favorite automobile ever owned! And this is coming from a guy who use to own and drive the muscle cars of the sixty's and seventies (including 426 hemi cars!). They never built a gtx for roadrunner that can handle like this car does! Absolutely love it! Buy one, and join the fun!

2006 Magmum

I'm 64 and have owned over 50 cars in my life, so far. Best car I have owned! Of the 50 previous cars, Mercedes, Volvo, Chevrolet, Dodge, ect. this is by far the most fun to drive. Took it on a twisty road the other day, what a blast.

Comfort, power and fun

Until about 3 years ago, I would never have even would have considered a Dodge or Chysler product. I have been won over. Don't get me wrong, I still have place in my heart for my first car, a Cougar. But, when I bought a Town and Country about 3 years ago; it had opened my eyes to another company of cars. I drove a Charger and loved it; I didn't think I needed to go any futher. However, fate brought me to a Magnum. I have a little more space for stuff in the back; but, I still have the proformance of the Charger. I have only had this car a short time now and see no reason that I will EVER give this car up. It is a 2006 and still has a new car feel and even smell (lealther seats). I would hope every one with the sceptal mind like I had, and is looking for a great car; give this one a shot to inpress them. I find it is a shame they don't make these any more and hope that Chysler brings them back one day. They are very sought after here in Cincinnati, OH; and finding any, let alone one with all the options you are looking for in a Magnum. Good luck car hunting and hope you find what ever your looking for.

Stand out

Stand out from the crowd and buy a wagon that will never get the kids to soccer practice late. The wagon stands out with its low curves and great growl. The only thing about these cars are the front ends are horrible. Tie rods and sway bar links will need replacing almost yearly. The chassis and transmission is from a mercedez benz however the aluminum is replaced with steel making these cars incredibly heavy. If the bold styling and extra room is what catchs your eye. Youll never look back but proper matience is crucial, oh and its a pig on gas.
