Default Traded in my Ram.. got a 2011 Orange Challenger RT

I went to Seaworld SA this past weekend and stuck in $90 worth of gas... on the way home i had to drop another $80... so after spending almost $200 in one day on a trip I decided that was too much.

So i decided to get me a smaller car and the wife would get a larger, more fuel efficient car for our highway trips.. like a new durango or acura.

I i ended up with an orange challenger RT.. that gets 28 mpg on the highway... see.. im saving lol

Im going to miss the truck.. but i wanted a chally even when i bought my truck.. they were just marking them up $5000 then.

So im still in the dodge family.. just not in the 4th geners no more

Here is the new baby... Ive already been searching for mods lol

OH YEAH.. forgot to mention.. they gave me $23,900 for my trade in... I was shocked!

I bought it new for $33,000 (46k sticker) in Feb 2009 ... 44 thousand miles

Sweet trade!!! I love that color on the challenger! Those heritage wheels really look nice too, and now that the LX and LY vehicles have been around awhile, you'll have plenty of nice performance mods to choose from. Congrats on the new ride.

I'm more of a charger fan, than a challenger. But its still a hot car, especially the color. Watch out for the cops now.

Congrats. I love the car and have been thinking about getting one as well. The round trip to San Antonio wont be near as comfortable as it was in your truck though

Sweet ride! You will have to let us know what type of mileage you are getting with it...especially if you can keep your foot out of the accelerator...but that might be hard to do.

Time to take it to RDP and bang it up to about 650rwhp and still get your 28MPG or higher.

Nice ride!! I also like the retro stuff, have an 08 Stang GT and my son has a fully restored + 525hp 68 Dodge Charger.

Somebody got a cool truck. Now how are you gonna stand to not see where you are going. That is my main reason for driving a pickup, I could get the same from a minivan but not look cool doing it.
