Sedans Dodge Charger Dodge Charger: Test Drives

You are in the Dodge Charger Forum. Your Hosts are pat & karens
Now that winter is (almost - I hope) over, I'm back to considering a new car purchase. Test drove a charger SXT this week. Generally liked the car, but was disappointed in the "feel of the road" while driving. The steering wheel just moved too much and didn't give me a taut feedback/feeling while turning. Is this typical or is it just my own perception? I think I recall a review commenting on too much assisted steering and assume this is what they meant. This was a short test drive so I may return for a longer one.

Replying to: jrourke (Apr 08, 2006 12:03 pm) I drove mopars most of my life and thought this feels like GM's steering.It didn't stop me from buying the Charger.I had front wheel drives for a lot of years and they had firmer steering.Don't forget the front wheels drives have the engine and tranny over the front wheels.The Charger is well balanced so there is less weight over the front wheels.When I drove my car today, the steering does feel better then when it was new.I don't feel that the steering has much movment.This car will go where you want it.I think once it breaks in a little ,you notice the change in the steering as well as the ride.I'm very happy with this car and think its the best Chrysler ever made.Its has a smooth ride,great brakes,feels solid.Good luck with your choice. |

Replying to: looneytoon (Apr 27, 2006 3:55 pm) scoop and the paint.I remember looking at the custom cars and trucks when I was there buying my car.Great job.The photo of my car was when it was new.Since then I added tinted windows and a SRT rear spoiler.The spoiler made a big differance on looks.If you ever come to Tucson for a car show,let me know,I would like to look at your car in person. |
