SEMA 2008: Dodge brings a Viper powered Challenger

SEMA 2008: Dodge brings a Viper powered Challenger

“Dodge Challenger SRT10″.
Got a helluva nice ring to it, dontcha think?
The current top-o-the-line Challenger, the SRT8, is a pretty beastly muscle car, one that delivered more than its rabid fans had expected. Quite frankly, its performance statistics are more than enough.
Dodge’s high octane SRT team apparently didn’t think so. I bet what happened is one [...]

2008 Dodge Avenger SXT Review

After nixing the Stratus after 2006, Dodge needed to gain back some market share in the mid-size sedan segment with a new and exciting model. Meet the 2008 Dodge Avenger.

Dodge To Sell Viper (sob)

No, no, no!
Say it ain’t so! This is terrible news!
Dodge is apparently going to begin negotiations for the sale of its “Viper” nameplate. Chrysler has always been the most anemic of the Big Three, and with Ford and GM both hit hard by the economy crisis, I can only imagine what the situation is like [...]

Dodge Viper Takes a 100ft Fall Off Cliff

So we have a Dodge Viper racing a Ferrari 355 on a mountain road. The Viper passes the 355, starts to go around a turn, and the brakes lock up. This tends to be one of those things you don’t want to happen, particularly when you’re traveling at high speeds on a road named “Deadman’s [...]

Test Drive: 2009 Dodge Journey

Test Drive: 2009 Dodge Journey

After days of repeatedly shoveling the snow out of my drive-way, just to repeat the task again the next day, I finally caught a break from Mother Nature and was able to make it over to the local Dodge dealer to test drive the new 2009 Journey.
Upon first glance of the Journey, images of the [...]

Dodge Shows us the 2008 Challenger SRT8

For the third press conference of the day, Dodge showed us the production version of the 2008 Challenger SRT8. Focusing on the classic nature of the car, Dodge made sure we know the new version is faster all-around, going from 0-60 in 4.9 seconds, ran the quarter-mile in 13.3 seconds, and has a 170mph top [...]
