I am really tempted!!

Am seriously considering selling the TE, and getting a new Dodge Magnum. This is the first american car I have considered in maybe 15 years. Love the looks, and I know how that Hemi engine runs in a much heavier vehicle. The RT comes with so many things standard, that you really have to search to find an option that you really need. Still love my TE though, and would hate to see it go. Decisions, decisions.

Mercedes underpinnings and transmission, and the motor from hell. Gotta love it. Plus, there will probably be all kinds of mods available soon enough.

...that's probably about the same as a TE--not too bad, for a gasser.

Its the only thing I would consider getting rid of my 380 for. I want one with a supercharger though.

"Damn right I got a Hemi! Wanna Race???"

Paul,,, that has weighed very heavily on my mind. Chrysler has had some problems with some of their new projects, although I don't know of a lot with the Viper or Prowler. This should never be an issue, as these people have been making cars for how long??? You would think that after 75 years or so it would be a no brainer.
