The Magnum is a cool vehicle, and it's actually usefull. The new Charger...I can't see any influence from ANY old Charger in it. I keep trying to look at that flip up in the body line at the rear door, but it still doens't do it. I would consider a new 300 C or the Magnum, but DC can keep the Charger. I am considering a new Mustang. I don't think Ford had to stick their neck out at all, the car was a huge success when it was new in 64, compared the then, there were other cars out there that were cool. In todays world what does it compare to? They have no competition.

OK, This is where I would dissagree and yet agree with a couple things.
For me I dont see where the Magnum is usefull at all, Not compared to todays world of SUV's. The Magnum to me is nothing more then a stationwagon on steroids.
The 300 C just dosent do it for me, For some reason to me that car is butt ugly.
I agree that DC can keep the Charger, I see no past Charger influence either. And for them to call this car a Charger is a shame.
I also agree Ford had a hit in 64 with the Mustang but they also had some down yrs with that car too. Remember the mid to late 70's? eww nasty.

(disagree part again lol) I think ford did stick there neck out. Reason is according to DC there is no market for 2 dr RWD V-8's. Also they went with a old/new look for the car, This was a daring move because it could have come out bad for them and the sales could be like that of the new GTO. And that is the only compatition Ford has right now is the GTO, But for 10k less you can get into a Mustang.

I see a lot of Europion look to the new Dodges, Look at them and then a Mercadies (spelling?), Not alot of differance in my mind. And whats with the crosshairs on every vehicale they make? For the truck its fine but on all of them? Didnt the mercadies have this look at one time?

Only thing DC makes that I will ever buy in any part of the near future will be a truck. Other then that they have lost any of my bussiness.
