#72 of 77 Re: Are we that happy with Magnum RT's? [2005maggie] by bbfd86 Jul 31, 2008 (4:45 am)
Replying to: 2005maggie (May 22, 2008 7:05 am) I've already gotten two speeding tickets in my '05 Magnum R/T AWD for cruising at 85mph or more on I-90 and I-95, so I am not testing it's acceleration at Autobahn speeds anymore. The car has blistering acceleration for a big, heavy wagon, up through 80mph. If it is slow in responding when you nail the gas pedal, try holding the stick shift to the left as you accelerate. This is supposed to force an earlier downshift. I've heard that the transmission is an earlier generation Mercedes E Class model and is adaptive. Theoretically it slowly learns to conform to your normal driving style.

I have come across a great video of a black magnum crashing through a huge storefront glass window. This driver must've got it after its airbags blew because he didn't fare too well... but the crash scenes kcik ass! I want to get some stills for my screensaver gallery.   P.S. season 6, episode 9: CSI Miami, CBS.   http://www.cbs.com/primetime/csi_miami/video/video.php?cid=577439402&pid=CMnB7gX- G5FB06DJoKe5XTHMweLgebvUk&category=recent&play=true
#74 of 77 long term report 05 magumn awd by budw Feb 21, 2009 (12:30 pm)
NOW HAVE 35800 MILES ON CAR. LIVE IN SPOKANE,WA. WENT THRO 3 WINTERE NOW. ONLY PROBLEM I CAN SEE IS. TIRES ON NEW CARS ARE CHEAP.HAVE REPLACED THEM. I THINK ALL THE PROBLEMS I HAVE READ ABOUT ARE ON FIRST CARS BUILT. WE SHOULD ALL PUT THE BUILT DATE ON THESE POSTS. I GOT MIND IN DEC. OF O5. BUILD DATE WAS 8/05 . IF YOU CHECK YOUR BUILD DATES,I THINK MOST OF PROBLEMS ARE THE FIRST FEW MONTHS. I HAVE HAD NO TROUBLE AND KNOW OTHER DODGE LOVERS HERE IN SPOKANE WITH NO TROUBLE. LETS CHECK THOSE BUILD DATES. MY FIRST POST WAS AS BLACK BEAUTY. BUD WALK

Replying to: 2005maggie (May 22, 2008 7:05 am) I have had my 2006 RT/AWD now for 34K miles and 27 months. Burn Royal Purple since day one. The car has given me 0 problems. I have had other cars from the US and Japan where after two years things start making funny sounds and what not. My Maggie, I must have been lucky, is still as sound as the day I took her home with 24 miles. Changed the tires, Mich. Primacy's and much better then the Conti. crap. I could not be happier.
