    0-60mph in 2.3 seconds. Insane.

    And who knew Joey Tribbiani was still cool.
    So, are you willing to put forth a little effort or are you happy sitting in your skeptical poo pile?

    I became a Mopar man last year when I picked up my 2017 Durango R/T with the 5.7L Hemi. My wife drives a Jeep and is getting a Charger this spring and I'm planning on a Challenger SRT or a Charger SRT. I even like the hell out of the Jeep SRT and the Durango SRT models.
    What great times we live in to be able to go buy such incredible machines.

    I love the smoothness, willingness to REV hard, and active exhaust on my new Charger R/T 5.7 Hemi. My buddy has one of those new $85k monster Camaros, and he loves the way the Charger sounds, and is generally impressed with the acceleration for a car that weighs over 2 tons. Of course it's not anywhere near the same league as his Camaro.

    A friend of mine had the Charger SRT 5.7 Hemi and I drove it and I was also impressed with the performance of it being as heavy as it was.

    He then got a Hellcat Charger, but he wrecked it on a two lane country road when an animal ran out in front of him and he ran off road and rolled it. He wasn't hurt, but the car was totaled. He only had it for a short time and I never got the chance to drive it.

    The hellcat is my dream car; have been wanting one for years. Maybe when I retire (in 30 years) I can afford one. To think you can get that type of performance at that price point in such an attractive car is impressive to me.

    Back in the late 70's I had '73 Charger. Grandma edition with the lack-luster 318cu, bench seat, and non-rally flat gauge set; but it was MINT. Even the vinyl seats were perfect. I always knew that one day I'd be back in a Charger. Also had a 1984 "Charger" that wasn't a stinkin' Charger; it was a Dodge Omni with a stick shift, fake air scoop, and Charger stickers...LOL

    I have a 2018 RAM 1500 with the 5.7L Hemi. Gets great mpg as long as I keep my right foot civilized.
    Are the heads in these engines actually hemispherical shaped liked the old school heads?

    Greatest invention ever as internal combustion engines go. The Hemi. Every top fuel funny car's engine, regardless of manufacturer, is essentially based off the 426 Hemi platform. That's why NASCAR made them illegal. Don't believe me though. Ask Richard Petty...

    Had a '69 'Cuda with the 440 6-pack and Hurst slap shifter in 1975. Fun to drive, fun to show off, not so much fun to fill up the gas tank at 6mpg!, especially at the age of 16 where a part time job did not pay a bunch, even with gas at 75cents a gallow...sigh...wish I had it now, could buy a house selling it :)

    I'm actually surprised that my 5.7L Hemi Charger is getting 18mpg around town, and about 24-26 on the highway---and I leave mine in Sport mode, so all 8 cylinders are working. I found that the 8-speed tranny has far more to do with good mpg, than the dropping to 4 cylinder crap. I'll never run mine in 4cyl mode, not happening.
