Personally I look at it this way, it is a CHALLENGER forum. I know there are other makes and while bashing them may be fun it is a fact that people do own other cars as well as the Challenger they either bought or are buying. I have an 06 Mustang GT (wifes car) and a Chevy HHR (my daily). Now, these cars were bought with a purpose, gas being almost $5 made me sell my Avalanche as the 502 ci/4X4 was killing me in gas. My monthly was around $600 and that was tough to deal with. The HHR costs me about $100 a month, so purpose filled. The Mustang was bought for the wife as she wanted one for many years as her family had a 65 bought new and wore out. She wanted to have a new one. Again, purpose filled. Now, as for the Challenger, its my midlife crisis/end of life hotrod. Pure and simple. I can say its purpose will be filled quite nicely. I do not extole the virtues of Ford or Chevy, nor do I swear Chrylser as king of the heap. I do say I hate the new Camaro (a car, by the way I loved in the 60's)as it is butt ugly. My opinion, period. I hate the wife mustang but do drive it quite a bit. Plain and simple, every one has opinions, if you dont want to hear them dont read the post. No need to bash the people. I didnt read any rules that said we have to love Dodge only. as for the other side, if you cant take being bashed or have thin skin, I suggest again, not reading the post. Lastly, if you dont like whats being said and want to stop the thread from ongoing, quit posting replies trying to get the last word in.
