Default What to test...on a test drive!

Ok, Here is a helpful thread. In bullet form..list any complaints you may have so others can check them out on their test drive...(i.e. Reverse gear hesitation, not so cold air, pulling to the left, back seat airflow)

I think this will be a great and very helpful area.

Are these all known problems with the Magnum or just a list in to check in general?

Most are individual complaints. The MAIN problems are the reverse hesitation and the pulling to one side.

I say take an RT for a test ride, carry a gun and make the salesman get out, then steal the car!

Just kidding, I would never do that.....................would I?
