So here is the story. I live in Calgary, Alberta and had to go to Edmonton, Alberta last night for a committee meeting. It is about 300km between the two cities and Red Deer is right in the middle. Anyways, on my way there I had a nice Challenger behind me as we left the Calgary city limits. About 10 minutes later he decided to up the pace a bit. We proceeded to drive a very spirited trip to Red Deer that took about an hour. When we pulled into Red Deer we stopped beside each other at a red light and did a quick "What you got in there?" conversation. Cool car, and cool guy driving too.
Today on my way home I had a nice looking Charger pull up behind me about 100Km out of Edmonton. We had a very fun and fast (of course never exceeding the speed limit

)trip up until Airdrie which is just outside of Calgary. There were hundreds of other cars on the road, and except for one hyundai sedan on the way home, nobody else seemed like they were on the road to "drive". I even pulled up beside another Camaro in Red Deer after the Challenger, and the lady driving wouldn't even look over at me.
Anyways, point of the matter is that I got a new appreciation for the Dodge cars and drivers the last couple days.

Yea, the challenger is a nice looking car. I really like the Yellow Jacket as well.

Me too.

Ive struck up more conversations with Challenger owners than Camaro. They are sweet rides and the people that buy them have good taste.

Cant say the same for Charger owners. Everyone that drives a charger here is a thug.

I made up my mind after test driving the base and srt models that I could only ever own the yellow jacket challenger. The others just don't do anything for me
