The Dodge Challenger is one of the best looking muscle cars that we have seen this year and is quickly become one of the most popular. Dodge has been raving about it all year and demonstrating the power you can control when behind the wheel. So you can imagine how dissapointed we were to hear rumors around the internet that Dodge was only going to make 5,000 For the 2008 year – its first year in production.
Having a powerful engine isn’t always needed in a car, but it sure is nice to have. Which is why people will love the new 6.7-litre, High Output, Cummins Diesel, which has been built into the new Dodge Ram 2500.
At 6.7 litres, this diesel is one of the cleanest on the market and it delivers a peak of 650 lb.ft of torque. More than 90 per cent of it is available from about 1,500 RPM up to just about red line.
Replacing the long-in-tooth Dodge Stratus is a new mid-size sedan that is based on the recently introduced Chrysler Sebring. Dodge’s version of the Chrysler Sebring will be called the Avenger, marking the return of the Avenger name after a six-year hiatus the last Avenger was a Dodge coupe that was taken off the line in 2000.
The Avenger’s styling borrows heavily from its counterpart, the Charger, but the proportions don’t work quite as well on the smaller Avenger. Underneath the skin, the Avenger is identical to its Sebring sibling.
