Pros And Cons Of The 2010 Dodge Charger

Improved Essays
Out of the three cars I researched, I picked the 2010 Dodge Charger SXT that has 99,981miles on its odometer, an exterior color of bright silver metallic clearco, and an interior color of charcoal. It has an automatic transmission with a 6-cylinder engine, and it averages about 25 mpg on the highway and 17 in the city.
There are a few pros and cons about each of the cars. What I liked about the Dodge charger is that it has the most features within the car itself. The inside stereo system has the hands on touch screen along with an aux cord which is super neat for me, because I always listen to music in my car and having a hands on screen makes it easier to navigate through songs. I also like the energy absorbing steering column, as it seems to make being in an accident safer for me as well as whoever else is in the car. Its more comforting knowing the hard airbag wont deploy into my face, but the steering wheel will absorb the accident. The last thing I like about the dodge charger is its sporty outside as well as inside look. Everyone likes a good dependable car, but who doesn’t love a dependable sporty car? Three things I don’t

Its listed price is $8,950, but the Kelly bluebook price range is between $5,271 and $6,499 tops, so it seems this car is very overpriced. The over priced value is one of my concerns about the car and one of the reasons its not my top choice. The good thing about this car is that it has the lowest miles of the 3 cars, which could be why it costs more, but it has 85,886 miles. This car also seems to have the least amount of features, which is a problem because I’m looking for a car that has a decent abundance of the features that are on my list. Auto trader has the city mileage listed as 23 and highway at 31, so I would say this car gets good mileage on both the highway and city for what I would need it

    On 02/06/2016 at 13:41 hours, I conducted a motor vehicle stop on a Dodge Charger for improper passing at the intersection of Hurffville and Rt. 42. I activated my overhead lights and sirens and followed the vehicle into the Wendy's parking lot. I approached the vehicle from the driver side where I made contact with the driver, Brian Cox. Brian was advised for the reason for the stop and to surrender his driver's license, registration and insurance card. While I was speaking with Brian, I could smell and overwhelming amount of burnt marijuana emanating from the interior of the vehicle.…

    5- speed transmission was behind all that horsepower under the hood. The unique look of the Viper was unlike anything else in the 1990’s. Dodge’s famous cross hair grille was present in the front bumper, along with fog lights. Anyone who owned one of these cars in the 1990’s would definitely turn many heads when they went down the road. The interior was similar to that of the Stealth, with the gauge pods above the stereo and air conditioning…

This guide explains exactly how to buy a car you will love” states that “A used car is always a better bet financially.” This proves why it can be better to buy a used car instead of a brand new one because it is more money. Both cars seem to be in great shape for long distance roads, but it can also become a huge problem due to their speed.…
