  • I love my Magnum! - 2005 Dodge Magnum
    By -

    The interior space is what sold this vehicle to my husband. I was interested in purchasing a new Sable Wagon a couple years back, and all I can say... "I am glad I waited!". This wagon has just about every feature I want and need. We are definitely looking forward to what the future models improve, but for our very first brand new vehicle, I could not be happier. While the gas mileage is not exactly the best, I gladly give that up for the safeness my family and I feel inside this wagon. It handles nicely and turns easily for such a long vehicle. And while some reports I read "complained" about the smaller size of the rear window, it seems quite adequate and we have had no issues.

  • Excelent Wagon for the whole family. - 2005 Dodge Magnum
    By -

    The Dodge Magnum presents a radical shift for the Dodge line. Style and functionality mix to provide an outstanding people friendly wagon with style. This class of cars has recently been showing its age. The Magnum breaks this mold and produces a handsome car with excitement and curb appeal. Unheard of just a year ago. The All Wheel Drive is excellent in snow and when mated with the Hemi engine Shows none of the customary reluctance of 4- wheel drive systems. Wonderful!

  • THE "2005" DODGE MAGNUM RT/HEMI - 2005 Dodge Magnum
    By -

    This is the most awesome car, sure looks like a station wagon, but has a very classy, but tough look. My husband and I are thrilled to have this car, so yeah maybe we are going through our mid life crisis (ages:42/46), and it does make you feel younger. You have to drive one for yourself, then youll see what we mean. We bought the inferno red which catches everyones eye, they all stare at it and even stop you and ask all kinds of questions. We love it and plan on keeping it for a very long time. We have been waiting for Dodge to make a car that we would love and they finally did it, so glad we waited.

  • Very Cool - 2005 Dodge Magnum
    By -

    The RT is just a lot of fun to drive. Comfortable, good looking, great handling. The Hemi provides a real kick in the seat of your pants. Im very happy with the vehicle and havent had any mechanical or handling problems.

  • Visibility - 2005 Dodge Magnum
    By -

    We enjoy the car, but wouldnt recommend it to anyone in the 50+ age range due to visibility. Lane changes are heart-stopping in fast-moving traffic. We added back-up sensors to help with parking. On the positive, our 20ish children have no problem driving it.

  • "Maggie" is the Best - 2005 Dodge Magnum
    By -

    I love my 05 Magnum. I nicknamed her Maggie. I had a lot of problems with the dealership but Maggie made up for it. The room is great. And the handling is awesome, you would think with such a big car your turning radius would be horrible but she whips right around those corners better than my husbands Accord. I would recommend this vehicle to anyone that wants a lot of room and still look good. Its such a sporty grocery getter!

  • Gotta Hemi - 2005 Dodge Magnum
    By -

    Wow, steering took a little bit of getting used to. It is very precise. Where you point is where it follows. Does not drive like a big wagon, inspires you to take curves quickly. Feels like a car that cost 20,000 more.

  • WOW!!!! - 2005 Dodge Magnum
    By -

    This is the coolest car that I have ever owned (29 at last count). This car turns heads everywhere I go and people come up to me where ever I stop to tell me how much they like it.

  • Fun, fun, fun - 2005 Dodge Magnum
    By -

    Short of a big block hotrod, nothing is more fun to drive than the Magnum RT. Its fast & corners well. But the main thing is it looks cool going anywhere, even to fill it up with groceries. I have never owned or even seen a car that everyone, from 17 year old guys to 60 year old ladies, love. I bought it for my wife, but I cant stop driving it.
