If a person had stock in American Airlines, could he instigate a class action lawsuit to have the pathetically gullible AA management team completely replaced?

You poor deluded fellow...all you have are opinions while I’ve got proof.

I’m still laughing.

I’m with you 100%—my left leg does something in the Charger as the automotive gods intended, while in the everyday car it’s my hands fumbling for the damn stalk—ergonomics takes a giant step backwards.

Amen to that. I pull the driver’s side vent handle and my crotch on that vinyl seat cries out in relief.

I’ll admit a certain degree of wistfulness—it’s really happening—basically a year from now those monster performance V8s won’t be at the Dodge dealerships. I felt EVs would take over quicker than most people thought, but this turn of events has me thinking—We Are Really Turning A Page Here.

If you have to have a convertible Challenger, OK, fine—blow your cash. But damn, $26K for the privilege—ouch!

Well that was too droll.

The 2nd gen Charger was the Chrysler B-body: Coronet, Super Bee, Road Runner, GTX, Belvedere--they’re all the same unibody.

No, it’s the ‘69. The ‘68's itty-bitty round tail lights suck.

What? They didn’t go with the ‘68 carbon fiber version that Ralph Gilles, the then Dodge stylist who came up with the godawful 1st gen 4-door Charger had built?

Something that doesn’t exist on cars anymore, but should—vent windows:

But that’s the rounded gen Mustang—doesn’t float my boat one bit—so ugh. (OK, I bigoted for the Bullitt Charger for some strange reason that I can’t quite put my finger on, but even I can appreciate a handsome Mustang.)

Yes, I’ve pounded that point many times here. You buy a Sixties muscle car which still has manual drum brakes, you will die.

Why are you even bothering to showcase this Jeep? David Tracy has undoubtedly already bought it and added it to his queue of Jeeps I Need To Finally Fix.

Along the same lines, I’m still amazed that Dodge has never come out with Fast&Furious edition Challengers and lumpmobile Chargers.  That movie franchise is practically a Dodge franchise and Dodge ain’t shy about special editions, so WTF?

The best car I’ve driven? So easy: my Charger

Yes, it’s only $4K. But buy it and you’ll have to blow $40K undoing all of his “improvements”.

Countries do discriminatory economic practices all the time. For better or worse, it’s an aspect of governing—duh—and all countries are guilty/proud of doing so.

Yup, you beat me to it. Still Eighties-boxy, but damn those Regals could perform with just a V6 under the hood.
