I LOVE THIS CAR!
Mulled over whether or not to buy for over six months!! Could not decide what car to buy, was looking at Kias, Fords, Hyundais and Chevy's. After doing market research and driving each one about 5 times (poor salesmen), I finally decided that the Avenger was the funnest! Not to mention, the MYGIG system is awesome! I was a little unsure about my purchase after I made it, but every day after I bought it, I fall in love more and more! This car has all the power I need, and if I drive it nice, this awesome V6 still gets 25mpg in town! I am so happy I took my time to make a decision, this is a perfect car for me!
No better value
No other car has horse power in the ball park of this car for less than 28 grand. The V6 is awesome. Also, the interior is packed with stuff. No other car can beat the Avenger price wise.

Durable, Reliable, Fun, and Comfy!
I purchased my avenger after researching several different used cars. I purchased it with 31k miles on it. in The first 2 years that i owned it i added roughly 40k miles to the odometer with several road trips between CO and OR. On my long road trips i was able to achieve 33mpg~ and had next to no problems with the exception of one trip when a cougar hit my front right quarter panel after which i drove safely for another 1100 miles back to CO. With regular maintenance this has been the most reliable car in my family, it has also been one of the most comfortable with room enough for my daughters car seat and 2 passengers in the back seat. I dont quite understand Edmunds con that the trunk is too small, i have literally fit 2 adults in the trunk comfortably before, i have also used it to lug 3-4 peoples snowboard gear up to the mountains safely and comfortably. This car is also fun when driven correctly, i use it to chase my wife in her v6 suv down the hwy on occasion and did so quite successfully. The handling isnt F1 quality for sure but youre not going to lose control if you lay the pedal down through the corner either. I have loved this car since i purchased it and will be sad to see it go when it comes time to purchase something else.

1 1/2 years later I still love it
I have owned many dodge vehicles in my life time but this has to be the best for the dollar. I purchased mine in March of '11 the mainstreet heat series. I was at the dealership getting my Jeep serviced (vehicle that I HATED) when I saw the truck pull in with my Avenger on it...BlackBerry Pearl..she was pretty. Took a different color out for a test drive because that one wasn't even in the system yet and was super impressed!!! I went back after thinking about it and got the one I wanted! The list of features on this vehicle has no end therefore trying to "trade up" for the price becomes very hard to do! Love my climate control. Was very disappointed that dodge knocked down the 2012 model
Dodge for Life!!
Bought the Avenger Heat with the Pentastar V6. Very powerful and sporty car, Getting just around 33MPG Highway way above the est. 29MPG and about 25 in the city....Just hate those Early shifts from the transmission, and also the unavoidable torque steer from the 300 HP engine bogging down the power steering. The entire is like a jump into a lavish sport sedan....Soft touch leather everywhere, Dodge U-connect phone is sometimes awful....The touch screen gets gummed up really easy, but the seats are stain resistant and everything is easy to see and very user friendly. Love this car and hope to keep it for many years to come.
