I was just watching a fellow magnum on the road today and i just started to think man how does the people on the forum drives. Mainly the modded mags. well i have a sxt and im a weaver in and out of traffic. Everyone say i make the mag feel smaller when they ride with me. Im curious to know how the higher powered mags roll. Anywayz HAPPY HOLIDAYS :beerchug::friday:

I drive very defensively. I've seen too many idiot drivers cutting people off and forcing their way into lanes that if I was aggressive, I'd probably be in an accident.

conservative in traffic but once i have a clear road i tend to be a little heavy in the right foot. I have unreasonably quick speed adjustments when getting on to the freeway. I'm sure there is an apartment building on the J street I-5 onramp that would like me explode whne i'm on my way to work. Anyway I would be even heavier on the right foot but i have yet to install a set of aftermarket brakes and i haven't done the suspension yet. Once i have some money set aside for taxes I'll make some needed changes to mags. Afterthat i hope to attend the track days at Qualcomm Stadium.

I'm not too much of a weaver nor am I very aggressive, but if you're parked in the passing lane and not passing, you're gonna hear a hemi roar by from the right lane haha.

I also am conservative/defensive in traffic, but get me some open road and I like to go uh-hum "the speed limit", especially on weekend mornings when I have to be at work at 06:30am and there is nobody out else on the road.

Conservative in traffic and in town.

Open road, haha hammar the pedal down!!

I don't have a lot of patience for slow idiots so I usually try to get around them. Now I don't weave in and out of traffic the whole way, but sometimes I need to.

Usually it's only if I'll gain quite a bit, I won't pass just to get in front of one car if there are other cars right in front of that one anyway. If there is 20 car lengths between the person I'm behind and the next car, yes they get passed.

I have a lead foot, it's hard to drive slow anyway, but it makes it worse because my Mag feels like it's just crawling along unless I'm going at least 75 or more. Unfortunately I can't always do those speeds.

Apart from the traffic,give me an open road and i am best friends with the auto stick and 3rd gear is sweeeeet...Needless to say my gas tank seems to empty faster than usual when i drive like this, but at 66.5cents/liter bahaha who cares :racing::racing:

I aggressive with out traffic to deal with, tend to dive hard into the corners and power out the same. Traffic picks up and I calm down, but if you are slower, you will be passed. I also have NO tolerance for tailgaters. I pick up a lot of them on a 25mph street near my house. It's patrolled so I won't go over 30, but many people think that 45-50 is a good speed. If I cant see your bumper in the mirror you are probably still ok, but when the headlights disappear, I'm going 25 on the button. Stay that close and I have no issue with 20,15, or even 10mph.

The best part is after we loose the double yellow and the speed limit goes up to 40 I hammer it and sprint away. I have yet to have somebody pass me on the 4 lane road after tailgating me in the 25 zone. So you wanna go 50 in a 25 but won't go over 38 in a 40, WTF!

Well, I certainly don't have a lot of power under my hood but when I do (like when I drive the wifes Charger) I consider myself to be an offensive driver. I offend alot of people. I can barely tolerate going the speed limit and like so many others have said, if you're in the left lane and not passing anyone, I'm gonna use all available real estate in getting around you.
I don't like tailgaters and I usually will downshift a gear or two and then play speed up and slow down. I'll slow down just enough to make them hit their brakes and when they do, I'll speed up. I can amuse myself for miles on a road that has no passing zones I find the people that tailgate the most are on their cell phones or are teenagers.

It matters what country I'm driving in; the US very conservative and some times out on the highways I'll open it up "a little" but the speeding tickets in the USA suck! I like Koreas approach to speeding and the use of law enforcement on the freeways, they use cops for accidents primarily , and cameras for speeding. There you get a speeding ticket in the mail with normally with a picture of you, so you just pay a fine and be on your way, but here dang, you are jacked up for doing 10 mph or so over the speed limit on a clear open road. My opinion, if you are not endangering people let me go a little faster within reason.
Also, I love to weave in and out... but here no way drive like an angel.
