  By Richard - June 23 - 6:44 am

  I plan on keeping my magnum to it just cant go anymore. I get excellent gas mileage (27 MPG on the highway). Thank God I didnt get the Hemi. :) I have over 86,000 miles on it with no major engine problems. I keep up on the maintenance. I love my car.

  From the sleek curves and body lines to the interior, I dont think you can find a better buy. I bought it for the look. Will drive it for the comfort and how safe I feel behind the wheel. It was money will spent.This is a car I will enjoy driving for years to come.

  WOW - 2005 Dodge Magnum
  By RLCURRY - May 7 - 2:16 am

  I get 25mph on the road and 20mph in town. This model will be a classic like a 57 Chevy. Styling makes car look smaller than it really is.

  Great Vehicle - A Good Buy - 2005 Dodge Magnum
  By Greg - April 29 - 9:59 am

  Incredibly dumb that Chrysler discontinued this model. Without a doubt, the best looking wagon to come out of Detroit in decades. After three years, no problems to report on my 2005 R/T. Very fast, nice subtle exhaust note, great mileage - I averaged 27 on the highway at 65 mph. Really like how quiet the car is. Would recommend this as a used car or for those getting the last of the 2008s. Hope to pair this wagon up with a new Challenger in time after the initially rush for them slows down.

  I love my Magnum!!! - 2005 Dodge Magnum
  By magnumamma - April 25 - 8:11 pm

  I really do. I usually switch cars every two years and have had this one for almost three now, and I plan on keeping it! Not only is it beautiful and unique, it is not bad on mileage for how large it is (I average 19- 20 mpg), it is great for a young mom like me, I can use the back trunk area space for changing diapers, and there is tons of room to get in to install the car seat, and store all the things I lug around. The only thing that has happened (knock on wood) is that the power steering hose blew after 4 months of ownership, but the warranty covered it no prob. It really is an awesome and reliable care, I work for Infiniti and prefer my Magnum over their newer vehicles.

  Magnum 5.7 and happy. - 2005 Dodge Magnum
  By bird - April 23 - 10:29 am

  This is the second Dodge I have purchased. I like the style and looks of the Magnum. The one item that I do not like is the self sealing tires. The first few miles you drive, it feels as if the tires are cement slabs.

  Im not a Soccer Mom in the Magnum - 2005 Dodge Magnum
  By Paul - April 19 - 9:07 am

  This is a family car with attitude. We love the aggressive styling inside and out. I love how the car just glides over the road, even with all the pot holes from this last winter. The only issue we have had so far is the washer sprayers on the hood broke. Those as well as most of the Magnums parts are "dealer only". We really didnt want to buy a mini van but that was what we where needing, so glad we found this instead.

  Nothing Compares - 2005 Dodge Magnum
  By kcmartin1@aol.com - April 18 - 11:46 am

  Power to spare with milage to be proud of. 1500 mile trip with 80 mph+ cruise most of the time achived 23mpg - COOL. Every day backk and forth to work is about 20mpg, constant city stop and is only about 14mpg. Quite secure ride. Electronic Stability Program (ESP)is fantastic on wet roads you swear this thing has all wheel drive.

  If you can find one, buy one - 2005 Dodge Magnum
  By Dodge Magnum RT - April 14 - 12:23 pm

  I have driven mine for almost 3 years and can report NO PROBLEMS. Lose the Conti tires and put on performance 255 wides and this car comes alive. Now it goes, corners and stops! I would buy a 2008 if I could find one. The RTs must come off a different line than the SXTs because I hardly ever hear of problems. If Chrysler would put in a better dash without all the charcoal gray, it would be an extraordinary car.
