What about iridium plugs. I'm running those right now. They seem to be ok. Maybe champs are better ?? I'm not sure. Anyone try iridiums ?

I personally never have been a fan of Champion. I will probably try NGK V-Power #5360 on my first tune up.

V_powers have always worked well inmy Mustang.

Same here...i've had a lot of probs in the past with champs losing their gap very fast. Their quality just doesn't seem to be there so I only use them in my lawnmower now . I put NGK Iridiums in mymaro and it ran great, but i'm not going to buy 16 of'em for my truck. I'm going to go with either the NGK V-power or the G-power Plats..

i will personally never put champions in my truck, have already had to take my truck in for warranty because of bad champion plugs in it, and my weedeater had a champion plug in it, and the plugs ceramic piece broke while it was running, ruined that weedeater. I drag race banshees and all we ever use is ngks, but i wouldn't feel bad about putting bosches in either

Poor quality. I prefer either NGK or Autolite.

I've bought quite a number of Champion plugs. Never bought a good one, though. Gave up on 'em a long time ago. NGK or Bosch for me.

Wait, what is the deal with Champions? I am being honest because I just bought 8 of the Copper Plus plugs from the dealer. Spark plugs are one of the few things I truly believe in buying OEM....but then Mopar is new to me.
If you want to buy OEM then more power to ya....but don't buy them from the dealer. How much did you pay for those plugs...$5 a piece?
