Very Pleased - 2005 Dodge Magnum
By My Mag - November 8 - 7:43 pmI bought my Magnum last November. I love the car. I am having problems with water leaking in my doors and falls on the rocker panels. This freezes my doors shut in the winter. So far there doesnt seem to be a solution for this problem. All in all, the car is great. I love driving it. Handles well, looks excellent and is very comfortable to drive and to sit in. Has some blind spots but after driving it for awhile you get use to it. The windshield fogs on the inside quite easily and is hard to unfog for some reason, maybe because the windows are so small. I feel Ive made the right choice buying the magnum.

I love this car!! - 2005 Dodge Magnum
By badkitty - November 3 - 10:05 pmIt is one of the funnest cars I have ever owned. Gets good gas mileage considering the engine. I usually average about 21 mpg. It has been to the dealership a few times. Five times for the same rattle which we finally tracked down to the front passenger wheel well plastic not being screwed in properly. More recently gearshift would get stuck in park. Repaired the brake sensor (twice). For a car in its introductory year, I have been very pleased. Tonight my airbag light came on. Im going to monitor that situation. I love the roominess. I have a two year old and I love when I speed up and he giggles. I think he likes it as much as I do

Statisfied Magnum Owner - 2005 Dodge Magnum
By mopar - October 26 - 6:08 pmPurchased Mag R/T used, second owner, with approx 19,000 miles. It runs great, currently has 24,000. So far no problems except for engine light. No steering, handling problems. No weird sounds. Very satisfied. Mileage could be better, but what do you expect, its a Hemi. Great pickup on interstates.

Moms little hot rod - 2005 Dodge Magnum
By janet thomas - October 7 - 10:07 pmThe first time I saw a Dodge Magnun, Ithought I was in love.I was so happy when I finally was able to purchase my dream car. My first long ride in my blue beauty was a trip from Rockford,Ill to Waterloo, Ia, to see my mother. Through the hills and curves it was so smooth.It was like riding on a cloud. There were a couple of times I had to pass some semis and I had the power to do so. I do not have the Hemi engine in it . For me, It is the finest riding machine on the earth. There is so much room for me to haul the thing I need. My kids like to call it,"Moms little hot rod". Yes, I am one very happy lady with the prettest blue magnum in the world. Thank you,Dodge for my car.

Mopar Heaven - 2005 Dodge Magnum
By FloridaBob - September 24 - 4:43 pmBeing a long time fan of Mopar cars, I have always wanted a Hemi engine. I have owned several muscle cars back in the 60s, this car rates as the best I have ever owned. Car is VERY fast and gets great gas mileage to boot. I only went to the dealer to look, I ended up driving one home.

A wonderful town and road car - 2005 Dodge Magnum
By Dodge Magnum RT - September 23 - 9:10 pmI have been intrigued with the lines of this vehicle for several years. This was when I first saw a fleet of three cars, all black and no chrome with all kinds of strips on the outside and antennas on the middle vehicle. These cars were out for high-altitude testing. At that time, I had no idea what kind of vehicle they were. About two years later, I saw the first vehicle on a dealer lot, and it was the Dodge Magnum RT. I have liked this vehicle since. I have always liked the Hemi engine. The last Hemi I owned was in a 1957 Chysler New Yorker. I wouldnt be surprised if that engine ended up in one of Big Daddy Garlits rail dragsters. This is one fantastic vehicle!

Still Loving It After a Year - 2005 Dodge Magnum
By NickTheFish - August 1 - 9:03 pmIve driven this car for a year so far, and love it as much as the day I drove it off the lot. The AWD is great in any less than optimal traction situations - its very cool to just power away up a hill from a stop light in the rain with no wheel spin! It doesnt drive like your daddys station wagon. The handling is much more like a high performance sedan (i.e. Mercedes). You wont believe the amount of stuff you can get in this thing. The loading crew at Lowes never thought wed get a 4 burner grill (in the box) in there along with an arbor, a dozen plants and some bags of potting soil the other day. Weve towed a 3400lb trailer on multiple occasions with no sweat. Great car!
