What's the dumbest or silliest thing anyone ever said about your Charger?

[LeadfootBob]

The silliest/funniest had to be my grandma... Bought the car, hauled it home on a trailer, had to stick a rope in the spring shackle and hold it back with another car to get it into the garage (no brakes and downhill, go figure). The floors are rotted clean out inside, front wheels cocked over almost horizontal due to both UCA's being broken, no interior at all, holes in both rear quarters, no engine/trans...
The next day she comes over while i'm working on it, looks inside and exclaims "there's no instrument panel! Did you have to buy a car without an instrument panel?"
Attention to detail 

The motor argument reminds me of (a bit off topic but still) the know-it-all who took a gander at the engine in my fathers chopper and proudly noted that yes, he had once owned a harley too. Dad's bike is a '69 Honda CB750....

Whenever I drive the hubby's 69 Charger people always ask.....Is that yours???  I told one guy....No, I just picked it up from Enterprise car rental!  Just because I don't have male parts doesn't mean I can't drive a nice car!  lol!  I need another good comeback....any ideas?

[G-man]

Another thing about my 69.....I guess its just "mopar uneducted", but my car gets called a Roadrunner or Super Bee more than it gets called a Charger.

I had a 70 Challenger before I bought my Charger. As I pulled my Challenger into an auto parts store and the guy behind the counter (been there for years) says to me "I love your camaro" I didn't have the heart to embarass him in front of his co-workers. I figured they would do that for me when I left. I didn't figure that coming from a car guy.

"How come your car doesnt have any headlights?"
Me: Old cars didn't have that.
"Oh, OK".

Me and my 4 year old were out tinkering on the Charger today and working on Mommy's car.  Come in for lunch, he says, "Why don't we find you a Charger that's fixed Dad!"

I wish it was that easy!   

Got to love little kid's logic!

10 min. of bla bla bla, had one just like it, bla bla bla, yep, I love them old Pontiacs. I didn't say a word.

My Dad,  who had a 69 Charger 383 SE for years,  was very happy to find out I was buying a Charger....  I never told him it was a 66.  When he saw it on the trailor he asked me,   "Thought you said you were buying a Charger, why did you bring back a Marlin?"    The next day I found out he was messing with me....

[Martian R/T]

Oh I get so tired of the paint it orange and put the flag and numbers on it, I dred pulling in to get gas because theres always one idiot that wants to talk, and its always the same, paint it orange, or they had, or a family member had one of those back when, its like just shut up all I want to do is get gas, I had a couple of idiots driving an old beater plymouth pull up and just yak yak yak, they were almost drooling on the fender, so I finally get back in the Charger and get ready to go and they are sitting in front of my car waiting for me to go, so there I sit because they won't move, so finally the car behind me moves, so I can pull out, there glued to the window yelling and giving me thumbs up, I was so mad I could have screamed, they reminded me of the two goobers on the Dodge commercial " does that thing have a Hemi" I don't have the patients for them any more, I guess I'm getting old or something, I did have a guy give me the hey I will give you 10 grand for it a while back, I looked him right in the eyes and told him 10 grand wouldn't even buy the motor, he got a stupid look on his face and walked away.

"What year torino is this?"

[200MPH]

when i had my 67  I heard: "wow Thats a slick looking marlin you got don't see those everyday!"

[Hive_Mind]

Well my bee gets called a charger 9 times out of 10 or a roadrunner even though I have bee emblems on the front and back and stickers on the windows have also gotten the challenger comment and one genius that came up to me saying wow that is a nice sounding stroker, in reference to the 383 badges on the hood scoops

[Back N Black]

Dumbest one so far is...... " i didn't know they use to make 2 door Chargers". 

[dodgecharger72]

The same UPS delivery guy comes to our house every time we get a package and every time he sees me in the driveway with my charger he asks if I'm getting parts for my MUSTANG I corrected him four or five time but now I just nod my head. He's obviously not worth the trouble lol

You wanna sell that camaro?

[Stretch]

You wanna sell that camaro?

You must have a 'Cuda!

[miller]

My acquaintances always ask me how my Camaro, Challenger, or Mustang is doing...
With my R/T stripe on the back many people ask if I have a 383 in it, I really don't mind, it was probably the most selling motor here back in the day, plus to see their eyes when I say no its a 440 is priceless.

[westcoastdodge]

my dads got a kit car like that 

[Stretch]

I have been asked more than once be a different person every time "What year torino is this?"
One of those times my buddy Shane was with me. He has a '73 cuda. I have a '73 rallye charger. It has turned into an inside joke for us. Whenever Shane comes over he asks, "What year torino is this?" and I respond with "Same year as you camaro!"

I think the torino thing comes from early '70s torinos having a very similar stripe treatment on them. It's probably the same guy who always had a car identical to yours only it had a hemi and was orange and didn't have..... yada.... Yada.... yada!
