Picked up a 2014 Dodge Charger SE this past Monday. I've been smitten with eventually getting one ever since I rented one out in Colorado a couple of years ago. Took that thing up and down Mt Evans like there was no tomorrow lol
MSRP was 30,275. Ended up getting it for 22,300 after rebates, USAA discount, breathing human discount, sun was shining that day discount, etc, etc etc....
3.6 Pentastar has plenty of pep putting out 292HP. 260lbs of torque is nice too.
8 speed Transmission (little bit of a learning curve in putting it in drive or reverse believe it or not lol) The shifter stays centered and you just hold the stick up or down depending what direction you want to go in.
20" Wheel package...little bit of overkill in my opinion but they do look nice. I'm already looking for something in the 18" range. First thing will be a set of snow tires and rims probably in the 17" size
Still on my first tank of gas but so far been avg 29 mpg according to the computer. I think they rated it with the 8 speed at 31 mpg? Remains to be seen.
Still getting used to the bigger size as I've been driving mid to smaller size imports the last few years.
I know the 2015's have a much nicer interior and a different overall look but I really like the "look" of the current Charger and the pricing was right.
Oil changes look to be super easy with the top mounted cartridge filter and I'll probably put a Fumoto Drain Valve on after the first change.
