Dodge Charger

We bought this and permanently attached it to our 2008 Prius. We have a Hymotion system in our car (extra batteries to run completely electric) and as a result our car's engine doesn't actually kick on long enough each day to charge the car's 12V battery. The 12V in a Prius is required to be in a relatively good state of charge to even "start"/turn on the car so we wanted to stop running into a low state of charge in the 12V system keeping us from starting the car. This CTEK charger is perfect for us - it is permanently connected to the ... Read Full Story

2007 Dodge Charger Pony car performance in a full-size.

2006 Dodge Charger All-new sedan harkens to performance heritage. By Tom Lankard Overview The Dodge Charger is dead, long live the Dodge Charger. At least, that's how the Dodge guys in Michigan hope fans of the Chrysler Group's performance brand will receive the new Dodge Charger. While its namesake was a two-door hardtop, and commonly, if not completely accurately, referred to as a coupe, the all-new Charger is a four-door sedan, albeit styled somewhat deceptively to diminish that fact. Further, it's as heavy as and actually larger in a couple measures than the Dodge Magnum, which is like a station wagon, and the Chrysler ... Read Full Story

Point either the Dodge Charger SRT8 or Pontiac G8 GXP down the road. With a light touch on the brakes, run the revs up a bit. Slip off the brake and bury the throttle. There's a light chirp as tires scratch for bite. Then comes a sub-5.0-second sled ride to 60 mph. A tick over 13.0 sec. and you're through the quarter-mile. It's a rush, of course, but not overly dramatic. Try the same thing with this pair's predecessors of 1970 or so and you'll find yourself in a bit of a wrestling match. Ain't progress wonderful? Maybe yes, and maybe sometimes it's fun ... Read Full Story
