Default Former Challenger owner driving impressions?

OK Let's get this straight. I owned a '73 340 Challenger with a 727 auto at 17 years of age and kept that car for the next 17 years of my and our lives after marrying Mrs. Deranged at 18 years old. She knows that the Challenger was the first love of my life and didn't mind. That old Dodge was everything, including a thrill ride for me (and at times for the wife and kids as well) and every day transportation and grocery getter. I will be purchasing an R/T with the six speed and nothing else this spring. I want to know what those of you who own a six speed car think of it as a daily driver as well as performance and also how long you had to wait for delivery if you ordered your specific car. Yep, I'm in my midlife crisis right now and this will be my one extravagance before I begin paying for college for my youngest son. Let me hear it guys. It's up to you to let me know I'm making the right decision here.
