ukjim, I have absolutely NONE of the problems you had/have, including the "subjective" ones, IE: Sight lines, high beams, suspension, etc.
About the ONLY thing I agree with you on, is the placement of the Cruise control lever. It blocks the lower portion of the left-most gauge window.
I am not one of those "My Car Is Great Because I Own It" people. I can be honest and share my "TRUE" experience/opinion, positive or negative, and I have in the past...
Sorry to hear about your negative experience, but I just don't agree about the poor visiblity, high beam issue, suspension, blind spots, turning circle, etc. I have owned 16 cars over the past 32 years, and find my Charger to be just fine, and certainly no worse than any of the others on these points.
(One thought just occured to me. I have an 06 SXT, so the suspension may be different...)
Good luck with your next experience. I hope it is better...

Ukjim, your review is so wholely negative I just have to respond! Everything is relative of course so I'm sure anyone's opinion is greatly influenced by their previous vehicle. Also if it's imposed on you that must matter too. I love my charger but then again I shopped around and decided I wanted to buy one so that's not really surprising. Coming from front drive cars and most recently a Mustang GT convertible I find it to handle very well with excellent weight balance. Tip in is quite slow on mine (3.5L/5 speed auto - I rented a 2.8/4 speed and found it to be more aggressive - I presume your fleet version is this one.) I agree the interior is plasticky and somewhat cheap (although I like the simple layout). The sight lines are certainly better than the Mustang's. I live in the city so I have no idea what the headlights are like! The switches seem high quality but my car is less than a year old. I agree the position of the cruise control stalk is unusual and I used to hit it instead of the signal a lot. But now that I'm used to it I love it. It is the nicest and most intuitive cruise I've ever used. The suspension is a little soft but then it's a big car and it provides a good compromise. There is a sport version available for those choosing their own car. My only complaints would be the steering, while accurate, feels a bit disconnected like you're playing a video game. And, while I love the interior space, it is a big, heavy car and you feel the weight accelerating and braking. All in all I'm very happy with this car.

Hey - How are you. I know your post is a few moths old. Assuming you're still interested in discussing your charger - which one did you buy and which engine/drivetrain did it come with...I bought a 2007 SRT8 on 7/05/08. 14,000 Miles on it. 6.1 425HP engine. Incredible power and handling, and a ride that sucks over choppy streets. you can respond here or email directly carmine.fazzari verizon.net
Peace!
CFF
