Simple, just get an manual R/T and your lack of power issues are over.

Be man and drive a manual!

I think my wife might have a few words on that subject.

I know my wife would, but she won't be driving the Challenger anyway unless she really want to learn a manual.

I would reword it to something like "be a real driver and drive a manual"

Many moons ago traded in our only family car for a stick. Told my wife (then girlfriend) - learn to drive it or you have no wheels. Within a half hour she was proficient enough to handle it with no more assistance needed from me/others.

She can't wait to drive the Challenger and I have more faith in her stick driving than many. Yes, she will drive it too.

I just said that to be funny. "Be a man and drive a manual".

I understand it was tongue in cheek - I want to be sure we support our female Challenger owners/drivers too.

It also gets me a more comfortable position in my bed at night.

as an avid snowmobiler, I also thought it was funny when a guy bought a 600 and then modded the heck out of it to get it to an 800.....why not just buy the 800 to begin with and spend time on the trail and not in the garage? last thing i wanna do is waste time wrenchin on my Challenger when I could be driving it.....370 hp and 0-60 in 6 seconds is good enough for me.....kinda like HDTV......720p.....1080p....cant really tell the difference.....

If you have blu-ray, you might be surprised. There is a noticeable difference, at least that I can tell.

Speaking of the female audience, I'm waiting for some women group to go after Wal-Mart. Have any of you seen the commercials that basically state that it's a mother's/women's job to be out there and providing the snack for game day? In one of them it ended with a pregnant women holding a cake or something like that. Oh boy was I hearing it from my wife, and I had nothing to do with it. [sm=chairshot.gif]

It torques me off to think women should be outraged at walmart advertising showing women doing good jobs at cooking. Yet when it comes to commercials showing a mans lack of knowledge on anything, from cooking to fixing things around the house, everyone thinks that is funny. Oh its just a joke, ha ha ha. It may be a joke, but it is man bashing, and it demeans every man in the United States.
