07 charger question

[bull]

If Bull isn't an old fart or a young fart, then what is he?

I'm old enough to know better and still too young to care.

So you bought one Tom?  Where are the pics?  ( yeah, yeah, I know about the haters, I'm one too but I'd like to think I'm big enough to accept that not everyone shares my taste and there's room for us all )

This will help: http://www.photosize.com/

Once you get on the photosize website scroll down to the "Exact Size Resizing" area and you'll find a browse box in the first table that says "Width: Selectable" (don't use the first box at the top of the page). Browse to find the picture you want (it helps to have your picture folder open already so you can see which picture you prefer) load it, type 700 in the "width" box and hit okay (700 is a good size for this site). After 30 seconds or so photosize will resize and display your picture in a 700 pixel width and display the old and new file information. As long as the new filesize is less than 200 KB you're good to go. Then just right click on the picture and "save as" somewhere to your computer and you can then load that image here using the browse box below the text box when you reply. Remember, you have to put something in the text box when you reply here or it won't work. Some guys just do a little smiley or a dot or something unless they have something to say, it doesn't matter as long as there's something that's considered text there.

That new charger is also a very heavy car.  Ponch has one so you might ask him about mileage too (although now that I think about it, his may be a 2.7).

Ponch is pretty heavy too. Relax, I probably outweigh you by 50 lbs.

But back to the topic. How does someone who's been registered here almost a year and posted 99 messages somehow escape the fact that the new "Charger" is a bit of a hot button? Are you trying to stir the pot, tkkruzer? I know it's been a whole month or so since we've had a new "Charger" go-around but I think it would be nice if we could go a little longer next time. Maybe a good solid three months.

Why you....

2.7 for me no more. 

I got a 2008 R/T just about 2 months ago. The mileage isn't all that great if you do a lot of street driving. But on the highway, once the MDS kicks in it will get you 22-25 (some of my buddies have gotten 27-28) depending on how you drive it. It's really not that much less than the 2.7. The 2.7 might have been a smaller engine, but it had to work harder to move the 3900lb car. The R/T handles much better than the lower level models, and if you still want more handling, there are always tons of low mileage SRT suspensions floating around for cheap ($300-400)

Otherwise, not many issues that I know of. At least nothing major.

Oh yeah...and you might want to check out LXForums.com instead of Chargerforums. The folks at CF tend to be less newbie friendly and kinda look down on you if don't have a Hemi car.
