How many are old enough to remember these dark days of the Challenger? Absolutely nauseating and how anyone liked that. The only thing I like is as they call it a " hefty 2800 lbs".

Hard to believe they could even call it a Charger with a straight face. 😢

I replaced the heads on my ‘78 Pontiac TA with real ones from a pre-emission 400 plus the usual list of bolt-ons and fixed it. That was a blast. My 1982 TA was the last GM vehicle I purchased. That engine and its supporting cast was a basic POS.
