But it is a wagon. More suitable for packing a lot of groceries than the trunk of a mustang.

But yeah they're quick, so it can get to the next sale quicker than anything else. lol

Because that's all we poor little women folk do is run around shopping, cooking, cleaning, watching oprah and eating bon bons. What ever would we do without all u big strong men to take care of us?







The plus of the hemi is people get the **** out of the way of that big *** grill. No one moves for the stang!!! Every one just seems to want to race the little car.

the only disadvantage is it's handling.....it doesn't corner for crap

but for power-it's got enough for it's size and then some

she may be big but it's all muscle

If that Magnum is faster then your stang, then your stang is broken. That Magnum is a 14 second car, you have a mid 13 second car.

I like the Magnums, but unfortunately no one else does. Dodge has killed it.

I like the chargers, I thought about getting one in a couple years but four doors? Come on? Stupid. But I would take the new challenger. Maybe in a few years I will get one of those ha ha.

I don't know what mods ya'll got but the hemi magnum has beat not just my stang but everystang it comes up against. I have not been beat off the line by mustangs, camaro's, and it really pisses a ricer off to be beat of the line by that monster car. Beat the same one three lights in a row. Now I don't speed (much) just get to speed really quick!! Before u bash the magnum, go drive one with the hemi!!! My husband didn't even want to look at it and I thought it was ugly but after he drove it he wouldn't leave without it!!

It is a lot heavier than the stang (bout 1000lbs) but the hemi doesn't seem to notice.

As far as the paneling.....I enjoy wood!!


Yes my stang is a gt, stock.

The reason I prefer the mustang is for the handling, I don't care to race in a straight line. I am a ridge runner from the ozarks and nothing is more fun than a curvy *** road and fast *** car.

A few pics of both cars...try and overlook the dirt, this is the first clear day in a week.

I won't knock the car..to each his own. I've seen a few nice looking ones around actually. But it's a $30k+ car new. 30k= TERMINATOR!

Im from the ozarks too, and the mustang is good for our area, but I would still like something with alot of power. Which is why my next vehicle will most likely be a cobra, but I've got a few years before I can get one.

I don't get to drive those road much any more. I have to settle for the ones here in middle tennesse. Fun but not the same. Near future for cobra or long term?
