A wagon to lust for?
| Author's Rating: |
|
Pros: Distinctive styling, power, room, stability control, handling, price
Cons: Grille a bit much, steering, drab cheap interior
Bottom Line:
Too big, baaad, and brawny for my tastes, but an outstanding reinvention of the traditional American wagon (except for the all too old style interior).

Detroit Iron At Its Finest... With A Little Help From Stuttgart
| Author's Rating: |
|
Pros: Muscle-car thrust from R/T, distinctive styling and character, bank-vault solidity, composed chassis.
Cons: Cheap interior plastics, suspension too soft, SXT's V6 out of character.
Bottom Line:
What's not to like about a hot-rod wagon with a Benz chassis and a Hemi V8? If you like the looks, its road manners certainly won't turn you off.

2005 Dodge Magnum SE - The ultimate MANivan?
| Author's Rating: |
|
Pros: Styling, power, comfort, ride quality, gas mileage, gawk factor
Cons: Poor side/rear view, hard seats, cheesy plastic trim, only seats four adults comfortably, headrests
Bottom Line:
Buy this car if you want a future collectible/classic car and don't care about the poor side & rear view. Otherwise, buy something else you can actually see out of.

Pretty good for a Dodge
| Author's Rating: |
|
Pros: Value for the size and power; cool looks; tight as a vault; safety features
Cons: A few early production quality issues; lackluster transmission; rental meat
Bottom Line:
It's a great value with lots of bang for the buck. Quality is good, but not great. If you like driving something different this is it.
