Dodge Has Turned it Around!

I have had my 2012 Charger R/T for 9 months/16000 miles. Prior to buying this I drove nothing but imports. This car is INCREDIBLE! It handles great, is super comfortable, has gobs of power, and is one solidly built machine. Even with the 5.7 Hemi I can get a consistent 30MPG on the highway and around 24MPG around town. The interior is very nicely appointed using mostly high quality materials throughout. If you told me 4 years ago I would be driving a Dodge I would have laughed in your face, but now I can't see myself driving anything else besides maybe a Ram or a Chrysler.

Purchased this car NCSHP. 121k. Like new. Have had to replace water pump normal service have had to replace fuel pump normal service have had to replace radiator along with fan due to fan breakage damaging the radiator. Seem to be a norm for these care. Around 170ish on mileage no smoke no leaks car still very strong. Very satisfied

2012 SE with 8-speed

A very good looking car for a price that blows its competition out of the water. The transmission gets me a combined 28 mpg which means it is one of the best on gas. The transmission is very smooth (after maybe 3rd gear you can’t even feel the shifts). And I love the sound of the engine that puts out almost 300hp which is very powerful for a v6. Mine has 115k miles and has never broken down.

I have about 10k on my 2012 Charger R/T Max. I cannot say enough good things about this vehicle. To the shock of many friends, I traded a 2009 Audi A4 Quattro for this vehicle. The build quality, ride quality, and owner experience are beyond what I expected. 2 years ago I would have never considered a Dodge above a German brand. Surprisingly, the highway mileage is quite good. I recently got 30 MPG on a road trip to NY. In the city I'm looking at 19-21MPG. If you're in the market for a reliable, well-handling, large sedan, this car certainly deserves solid consideration and is the "last of the Mohicans" in terms of large, rear-drive, American sedans (short of the Chrysler 300).
