    Thinkin bout pullin the trigger for 05 Maggie RT

    Im thinking about trading the Charger2.7 in for a 05 Maggie RT. The dealership has it listed for 15k with 35k miles on it. Do you guys think that this is a reasonable price. Need something with more storage space with the 2nd lil man on the way. Any adive would be helpful thanks.

    That what i was thinking. I still owe 10500 on my car, I want them to take my car pay it off i dont want to put any money down and i want to keep my current payment. Is this to unreasonable to ask?

    Good price. I paid 15131 before taxes and fees (which means 16500 out the door) for my 05 R/T in January of this year. It had 48k at the time and many options. The miles are very low so that makes it a good price.

    Well then you're $5k short

    You can only keep the current payment if you extend the time on the loan. The best would probably be to put something down to lower the payment

    SRT front fascia
    slp LM1 exhaust
    mopar CAI 22"s with new pirellis worth over 1000.
    lowered on sportlines
    5% tint all around and 205 in front
    debadged, demolded
    best damn looking MRT u ever seen.

    u coulda had all this for a thousand more.

    i am rubbing this in ur face cos when i got the MRT u were more worried about gas than i was, now u want one.

    nevertheless, good choice going from a charger to a magnum.

    u also might want to shop around. u never know where u'll get the most for ur car.

    i hopoe this makes u get in a Magnum faster

    My girl's Altima SE-R is faster thanm ur charger.

    in ur face sucka.
    -------end of being a jacka$$------

    now if u need assistance with the whole shopping process, hit me up. u know i love car shopping

    2.7L to a 5.7L.......HELL YES!

    I love the silver too. Sell your Charger (try Craigslist, it's free!) and then go haggle with the dealer. Soooooooo much easier and you will always come out on top!

    If you are looking for gas mileage from a V8 pulling a 2-ton car around, these aren't the cars.

    If you are looking for the coolest station wagon around that -can- get decent mileage, an RT works - just don't pin your hopes on getting better mileage than your 2.7.

    What -are- you getting for 'real world' mileage on that thing anyway?

    I get anywhere from 300-335 in the city and about 4-420 on the highway nothing but highway road trip style cruising at 65-70. still what would the gas mileage be for an RT? Viper3ez put it right he got more smiles per gallon where i was gettin more miles per gallon

    That thing is loaded,would be a nice buy too...as for mileage it might be a tad better on the highway but as for the leaded right foot of yours you might wanna get some of it remove(it might grow back worse than before tho)....

    19 mpg all highway equals about 350 to tank. going 90mph average. dunno how much going slow cos cant remember.

    city, if you care, stay away from a V8 Magnum.

    u will notice the difference but u'll be over it in a few miles of driving.

    forget mds because u drive almost as uneconomically as i do.

    it would not kick in.

    lets just say i get saME mileage now in my MSRT as i did in my MRT.

    if u worried about gas, stay away


    but if you love smile per gallon feeling, here is ur official invitation to custommagnums.com.

    u can also post ur situation there and let more magnum lovers chime in also.

    good luck

    I average about 350-360 miles on a tank combined city & highway driving with my RT. All highway is 400+ easily.
