  • Goodbye Pocket Sucking Pickup - 2005 Dodge Magnum
    By -

    I have been admiring this car from afar since the day I saw it. I was driving a F150 to and from work and as a primary mode of transportation until gas hit 2.15 a gallon. That day I decided that I was not going to put more that ten dollars into my truck and hopefully I could make it to the dealer. I am six foot six so a Honda was not in the running. I sat down in the Magnum adjusted the seat and fell in love. Plenty of leg, knee, shoulder and head room. I decided to get the 2.7 engine instead of the Hemi based on the huge price jump for the Hemi. That was my only let down. Other than that the 2.7 has plenty of get up and go and I can save even more in gas.

  • Magnum is a MUST have! - 2005 Dodge Magnum
    By -

    This car ROCKS. I was sold before the test drive. While there are a few minor upgrades I would suggest, this is without a doubt A MUST HAVE. In the RT Model, the only improvements I would suggest are having the front passenger seat be completely automatic. The half auto, half manual doesnt make sense and is not convenient. The head lights need an auto selection to turn themselves on and off, as most cars of this caliber have. Making the VES (Video Entertainment System) standard on the Navigation System in the RT Model would be a nice touch. Overall I would rate the RT Magnum at a 10+!

    Love my Hemi. Although I have had a couple of issues...tie rods, navigation, and windows/sunroof electrical problems. But no car is perfect, especially when its a new model. I am sure the list of complaints will be taken care of. Considering the size of the car I cannot complain about the gas mileage- I think it does well for her size and power. We took it to Florida and we were very comfy and it did great on gas. The ultimate "Mom" car that Dad loves to drive to take advantage of the get up and go. Mom is guilty of that too. Its a very roomy, family car that is really sharp looking. I swore I would never own a wagon. Congrats to Dodge for creating the cool and fun family vehicle.

    Hi, I really love driving my Magnum! The 3.5 gets the mileage I was looking for, and the fun as well. The air blows cold and the fun runs hot! Im really enjoying my ride. Have fun out there! See you on the road.

  • Overall - 2005 Dodge Magnum

    I like the overall car it is great it drives more like a sports car than a family car. The inside is great all the gauges or well placed the controls and easy to reach. The room inside is just great i like to be able to shift the gears myself. all the safety features or great. I guess you could say i like ever thing about the car.

    This vehicle is very reliable and very quick response for the size vehicle. The new aggressive look of the front end appeals to me. The coolest thing about the Dodge Magnum is the low- profile of the vehicle. The great fuel- economy is very nice, 19.7 city.

    In 2 years had minor problems. Small tranny leak and a small rattle under the right front splash guard. Thats it! I have gotten up to 27 mpg @ 70mph for a 120 miles. City is right around 16.

    We really like the car and its performance. Had a piece of weather stripping fall off a rear passenger door and have some paint chipping off the front fascia. Dealer has agreed to repair.
