RW> Yeah but, can you live with a V6 in a car like that? What does the same
RW> car with a V8 and the 8spd OD get?

Sure can, unless the dealer were to give me an option to buy gas for the
life of the vehicle for $1 a gallon.  :)

The Chargers and Challengers have two different V8s.  One is a 5.8, and the
other is a 6.4.  I believe it is close to 500hp, comes with a $1000
"Gas Guzzler Tax (here in MD)", and doesn't have the 8-speed
transmission (yet). The 8-speed is only available in the V6 3.6L models.

I took a look at them a few days ago, did more looking yesterday and ended
up buying a 2012 Charger SXT Plus.  The incentives right now and the lower
low rate I can get is too hard to resist.  I also like the idea of having
another extra vehicle, especially since my younger daughter wants to work
later this year and will be able to get her full license.  

I now have two of my favorite vehicles..  I'm keeping the Monte Carlo and
will also have the Charger to drive (and the HD when the weather permits). 
I'm set.. :)

Will have to take some pictures so you can take a look.  I'm going to get
the windows tinted the same as I have in the Monte, and also might do a few
custom graphics to offset all of the black.
