You sure? Quick maybe, but probably not fast. And definitely not far.

It's all BULL. Oops, maybe I didn't phrase that correctly.

Acceleration from a standing start means very little to me. But if I'm 250 miles from home and go to pass someone that's doing only 75 on a 2-lane road, I do not want the damn EV to sputter to a halt. Especially if still in the opposing lane. Of course, if I had half a brain I wouldn't venture...

I have a friend who has a tank (the kind with a turret, tracks, etc.) and I bet it feels more stable than my Challenger does.

Maybe so, but then there's real life. When I get so old that I think things are getting better, I will no longer drive on public roads.

Usually, getting hitched is not temporary. Which is why I'm still single.

Didn't they screw up a bit when naming that thing Charger? Discharger would be more appropriate, I think.

Could be to justify having a 4-door?

Had one, never used it, so I sold it about a year ago.

Thanks, but no thanks.

You should keep in mind that except for the 3500, which has all kinds of stuff crammed into the back of the cab, I really only need one door. Preferably on the same side as the steering wheel.

Haven't got quite that far in life yet. Global warming may make me want to gain another 500 feet, though. And as far as TPMS goes, I use the factory TPMS sensors (color doesn't matter since they're in the tires) with readily available aftermarket black metal valve stems.

I'm plenty comfortable in the Challenger, thank you, and don't give a damn about if the creatures are or not. Score another one for the Challenger...less doors, less creatures invading the passenger compartment. My flying below the radar is based on color choice and a good radar detector. It's...

Score one for the Challenger then. If luxury is the goal, get a Bentley or Rolls. Not that I want mine to draw attention, on the contrary, but it's fairly self explanatory that people rather look at something attractive than a blah sedan. If people even notice a Charger, they probably think...

"Local" Taco Bell?? I'm sure they have those down where our revered weather guesser lives, but this is both an alligator and Taco Bell free zone.

Yeah, better than the current quattroporte, but that's not saying much.

I can do some math. That's why I know that an EV would not work for us. At all. Unless we had two of them, one being parked near the destination. More importantly, I also know that I'd most likely kill myself if stuck with an EV. Not saying that would be a bad thing (poll, anybody?). But...

I'd love to hear how that worked out in real life, even if it's half a decade from now. But I can certainly understand why something like a heads up display could be useful...when ones vision is obstructed by sand.

There, I fixed it for you.

I wouldn't doubt that. Cops and taxi drivers aren't always the slimmest.
