RLD 08/09 news
RLD Dealer Bob
It’s hard to believe, but the day that many, myself included, have been waiting for is only a few weeks away! The day is coming when the first Production ‘08 Dodge Challenger SRT8 will roll off the line!
The wait is just about over- The first ones should start to hit showrooms by the end of April or early May. Unbelievable!
If you’re one of the lucky few who’s getting an ‘08, congratulations!
I’ve enjoyed being a part of the Dodge blog RLD so far- it’s fun to interact with all of you fellow Challenger fans and hear what your desires are for the ’09’s and beyond.
With the introduction of the ‘09 Challenger Models at the New York Show, many of the questions that you had were answered, in fact some that I had were answered as well. Three models were unveiled,one for every budget and I think we’re all pretty impressed with each of them. Whether it’s a 3.5 V6 powered SE, a new VVT 5.7 Hemi R/T,or a 425 Horsepower SRT8, it seems like Dodge has us covered. My personal favorite of all has to be the optional 6-Speed Manual with a Pistol Grip shifter in the R/T and SRT8’s!
Like I’ve said in many of my comments here on RLD- Keep your comments and suggestions coming!
Even though everyone has their own opinion, one thing thing seems to be pretty much universally agreed upon: We want to be able to individualize our Challengers right from the factory- From all the original Hi-Impact colors, a few at a time, phased in and out, available on all models several times per year, to stripe choices, to special equipment like Hood Pins, Shaker Hood, Tuff Steering Wheel, more wheel choices, Convertible etc.
‘09 Challenger pricing and ordering info should be out sometime in May, so get ready!

Is Red Letter Dodge some kind of special Dodge dealer? In what way? Why is it featured on the Dodge web site?
I guess it's likely that Dodge does know what we want, because this dealer sure does.

Your icon made me think for a few seconds that I had a bug on my screen. Is that the purpose of it? I was all ready to get some tissue to get it off.
I had to scroll the page up and down to make sure it was just a graphic.

Any idea on 09 pricing for the SRT8?
Since 09 will not be considered limited production as well as different 09 entry levels (SE in the 20s and RT in the 30s/with no/little gas guzzler tax and full warrantee), I anticipate (hope) that the MSRP will not go up as well as the gouging will end or at least be reduced
What do you think?
