No offense to Challengers...but I never did consider them in the same league as the Camaro. It was always Camaro vs. Mustang. Five pages of posts and no one once has challenged the assertion that Camaro and Challengers were rivals back in the day?
Contemporaries? Yes. Rivals? I'm not so sure.
Charger's a little more believable as a "rival" - my Dad told a great story about someone bringing a cherry '69 Charger to the dirt track in his town right off the dealer lot and how he opened it up on backstretch and just went monster. It made him a Dodge man for life.
And besides - didn't Daisy Duke drive a Challenger? C'mon. That writer didn't know what he was writing about.
Too bad the modern Challenger looks better and truer to its original than the Charger.
Make mine Camaro, please.
