    I love the Magnums. Love the Hemi. The power is amazing. Its smooth like an old Caddy. I have 2 kids and am very glad I went with this over a Charger, a lot roomier.

    this vehicle is everything i always wanted wrapped up in one package.the power of the big v8 is awesome.add to that the comfort of the leather interior and the low slung look it is just one great machine.it was a head- turner the day i bought it and probably will still be 20 years down the road.

  • Poor steering - 2005 Dodge Magnum
    By -

    The Dodge Magnum is having a problem with the front end pulling to the right. Ive had it in the shop 5 times since I purchased it in August. Its better, now the car just drifts to the right, but on a distance drive your arm will still be sore .Dodge said its engineers are working on the problem but its been a couple of months. Though Im past the lemon law, I love the car and dont want to give it up. I hope they come up with something soon! My friend at work has the same problem with his and and loves it to much to give it up

  • European Accents & Ride - 2005 Dodge Magnum
    By -

    This vehicle has been the best Ive ever owned. I wanted a mercedes, but decided not to spend an unrediculous amount on a vehicle. I chose the Dodge Magnum SXT, because of its sleek styling and european accents. The safety features are the best Ive ever seen. I feel like I have total control

    Head turner everywhere you go. Everyone wants to know what it is. Great gas mileage. I had a Dakota 5.2 that I traded in for the blackmag and the Magnum seems to have as much get up and go and looks great doing it

  • WOW - 2005 Dodge Magnum
    By -

    The last really neat car I owned was in 1962, a 1959 Austin Healy 3000. I had been looking at a new SUV after 6 years of a Jimmy. Couldnt get excited about anything. Then I saw a Magnum and I was sold. This car really turned my head, and when I started reading about it I decided I wanted one. I ordered one back in July or so, and had to wait until November to get it. Well worth the wait. What a car, what a ride. We took a 200 mile trip the day after we got it, and I knew I had made a good decision. Mileage was about 21 mpg for that trip, and I am told that will impove once the engine breaks in.

    The vehicle is revolutionary. I wanted an alternative to an SUV. This car has it all. Speed, comfort, room, safety, sporty appearance, the list goes on. The price advantage for the vehicle against a comparable Mercedes or other Euro-wagon type makes the Magnum the clear choice.

    I am a mom/volunteer on the go. Have had a van/mini-van for 23 years! Took some getting used to, but I ABSOLOUTLY ADORE my MAGNUM! Its zippy, has pep, plenty of room to haul groceries for a large family, haul stuff to the beach (including surf boards - even a LONG board!) Took it into the mountains this fall, it took the steep inclines with no problems.

    We bought our car in mid-June and have over 4,000 miles already. I spend a lot of time driving the kid to practice, friends, etc...and I must say I actually look forward to it just so I can drive my RT. Were already talking about selling ours (I have people getting in line for it)to get the SRT 8. Wish I wouldve known sooner, but wouldnt have been able to wait anyway. After about 2 months and 2 roadtrips, I absolutely love this car. My Chrysler/Dodge dealership in Bristow, Oklahoma has taken fabulous care of us and our vehicles. I will continue to buy Chrysler/Dodoge products for their innovative and stylish designs and also for the reliability an

  • Sweet, Sweet Ride! - 2005 Dodge Magnum
    By -

    Nicest vehicle Ive driven in a long time. Great if you have children. Safe, reliable, roomie, and fun! Very smooth ride (thanks to the Mercedez engineering). Ive got 20" forged rims on mine with Toyo tires...looks very sharp. Also tinted drivers and passengers window to match rest of car. I get stares constantly. It definitely is the talk of all the cars on the road. I decided on the Hemi engine based on the size of the Magnum...its a big car and would put alot of stress on a V6 engine over the long haul. I see a few people who dont like the interior...saying it looks cheap. I dont agree. Its simple, but has every feature you need.
