    How many "that thing got a hemi" comments have you

    I've had mine since friday evening and my, being at a stoplight and hearing "that thing got a hemi?" number is currently at four. I imagine it'll go away once more magnums are on the road but i have yet to see another one so far so i'm getting all the fun comments and such.

    Started about 5 minutes after I was off the lot. I got a $20 voucher for gas and was filling it up for the first time. I get 2 to 3 a day asking what is this or if they have a clue to what I am driving weather it has the Hemi.

    I sponsored a race out in St. Thomas Canada last weekend and there was a cruise-in after the races so I brought the RT out... After we started counting (on our last round up and down the strip) we came up with 10 "What the $#%$ is that?!'s" and 5 "That thing got a Hemi?'s"

    Other than that I couldnt even count how many WTFIT's and TTGAH's But I tell you this. Every single time I come out of some place to get my car in the parking lot, I got someone out there gleaming at it, peaking INTO the windows, walkin around it, slowin down as they drive by or somethin else. Definatly ammusing I tell ya!

    Magnumrt,

    Same for me. I'm afraid my RT may cause a wreck due to the "rubber neckin" it constantly gets.

    My father-in-law (a really great guy), saw the Hemi badge on the front fender and asked, "Is that the helium motor?"

    Somebody beat that!!

    LOL....can't say I've gotten one of those comments


    I'm still getting the comments cause my car is still rare, at least in my area. So far i've only seen one other Magnum on the road. I figure we'll still be getting them until Brampton can ramp up production.
