  Gotta love that Hemi - 2005 Dodge Magnum
  By Taj1129 - March 23 - 6:56 pm

  What fun! Didnt want to be another SUV in line waiting to pick up the kids from school. I wanted styling, comfort and power and the Magnum delivers. Gas milage in the city stinks but on the highway its great. A wonderful, stable ride. Makes merging on the freeway fun. The kids love it too.

  Magnum RT - 2005 Dodge Magnum

  With cruise set at 65mph I averaged 24.5 mpg on I-25 south heading for Santa Fe over the holidays. I have towed a 14 ft. enclosed Pace trailer with ease. Mileage while pulling the big trailer fell to 12 mpg. I average 20-21 mpg on combined city/highway driving. The mpg drops into the teens if you indulge the urge to feel the hemi do its thing.

  Awesome Car - 2005 Dodge Magnum
  By Tblair - March 16 - 6:40 pm

  I love my new Magnum. It has great pick-up and handles like a true sports car. It has a very tight suspension and takes turns with no problem at all.

  I fell for the Dodge Magnum when I saw the concept version a copuple of years ago. When I found out it was on the market I arranged for a test drive. That sold me. So I bought one. The ride is a little firm but the faster you go up to highway speeds the smoother the ride. On twisty mountain roads it sticks to the road like glue and handles like a dream. The 340 hP Hemi MD is really something. Around town Im getting on average 17.0 MPG; on the highway about 20 to 24 MPG depending on hills vs. flat land.

  Dashboard Rattle - 2005 Dodge Magnum
  By Martin Miller - February 21 - 11:36 am

  This car is Kickin. Its a suped up station wagon. My 3 year old son calls it "Daddys Hemi Car". An annoying rattle under the front pass floorboard. Mystery thus far w/ Dodge not too knowledgeable. They need to ride on 95 at 65MPH to hear it. Any thoughts? mminstigator@hotmail.com

  MAGNUM... What wagons were meant to be! - 2005 Dodge Magnum
  By Americancrabass - February 8 - 1:46 pm

  I just bought my Magnum 2 months ago and I absolutely love it. The body design is amazing. I love the hard edges and lines throughout the vehicle, and it carries over to the inside with the same style that looks simple and not so flashy, but also captivating at the same time. Everything is laid out perfectly on the interior. From the way the guages are set up, to the radio and AC controls. The simple accents of chome along the inside make it work so well. The car drives amazingly, to say the least. I purchased the 3.5 ltr SXT and must say that it is enough power under the hood to satisfy me completly. The car rides so smooth it is almost unbelievable that it is not a whole lot more expensive.

  Freeway Cruise - 2005 Dodge Magnum
  By sugareasy6 - January 27 - 9:50 am

  I drive many new cars. Dodge was reliable in that there was always wind noise, excessive road noise, steering wobble and generally less control that one would want. The Magnum RT HEMI is an entire different machine. The undesireable noises have been handled to a large degree. The winner is the front suspension, wheel/tire size and the star is the Hemi Engines performance. The vehicle response is almost to much. Acceleration is great and the RWD makes good use of all the power. Sudden power spurts at freeway speeds for lane change ie passing, on off ramp performance and emergency deceleration are all outstanding. Ists hard to find a dealership that has one in stock and most dealers
