Guide: 5=Perfect; 3=Good; 1=Poor

Pros: What do you like about 2008 Dodge Magnum?
2.7 LTR IS QUITE FAST WITH GREAT PICKUP.
THE TRACTION CONTROL AND STABILITY CONTROL HANDLE VERY WELL IN OUR WINTER WEATHER, AS GOOD AS MY WIFE'S 4X4 NISSAN P/U.
I GET 500 MILES PLUS TO A TANK OF GAS HWY AV. 26-28 CITY AV. 18-20.
BOTTOM OF CAR IS VERY WELL BUILT, GREAT TUCKING AWAY OF EVERYTHING IMPORTANT, CENTER CONSOLE FOLD DOWN TRAY HOLDS MY PISTOL AND SPARE MAGS GREAT.
I'VE NOTICED WHEN FUELING UP IF YOU KEEP ADDING TILL GAS IS RIGHT AT OPENING YOU GET 220 MILES TO 1ST QUARTER OF TANK - THIS COSTS ABOUT $20.00 FROM QUARTER TANK AT 2.50 A GALLON.

Cons: How would you improve 2008 Dodge Magnum?
MORE GROUND CLEARANCE BY ABOUT AN 1.5 INCHES SO DOES NOT DRAG SNOW AS MUCH.
I LIKED THE 05-07 FRONT END BUT WITH THE 08 HEADLIGHT SET UP.
FOG LIGHTS NOT INCLUDED WITH CAR HAD TO ADD MINE WE GET THICK THICK FOG HERE.

2008 Dodge Magnum Review:
I USE MY MAGNUM FOR STORM SPOTTING/TORNADO TRACKING AND INTERIOR ROOM IS AWESOME. I HAVE MOUNTED IN MY CAR 4 COMM. RADIOS ALL CONNECT TO CAR STEREO, 2 WEATHER RADAR, WINDOW LIGHTING IN FRONT REAR AND SIDES FOR WHEN CHASING TORNADOS, TWO CAMS ONE MOUNTED TO REARVIEW MIRROR, XM RADIO, GPS, INSTANT POS. LOCATOR ALL MOUNTED TO DASH CONCEALED LED FLASHING LIGHTS BEHIND GRILL, AND SLEW OF ANTENAS ON TOP AND MY WIFE STILL FINDS IT ROOMY AND ENJOYABLE TO RIDE IN (WOULDN'T MIND THE HEMI FOR MORE POWER WHEN THE TORNADO DECIDES TO CHASE ME). LOL

2008 Dodge Magnum Review:
I've owned the 2008 magnum r/t for 24000 miles, without any mechanical warranty work. Driven from NY to AZ twice with no problems. On trip at 60 mph averaged 26.5 mpg. Would buy another with the 3.5 Liter in a minute if I could. Why Chrysler discontinued this car is crazy. Bring it back with the barracuda.

2008 Dodge Magnum Review:
My husband and I traded our 08 Avenger for our 08 Magnum SXT and are happier than ever. Over all, the Magnum is a great car with a lot of ponies behind the pedal. The interior is relaxing and nicely set up for the car. A ton of room for whatever you need. Our car went out of alignment pretty fast but with the roads around our home, it was bound to happen. The traction control button comes greatly in handy when taking turns fast and when hitting speeds around 90, you can feel the car tuck itself to the ground. Great car and I would recommend it to anyone seeking a nice, powerful and cheaply priced car.

2008 Dodge Magnum Review:
Our 2008 RT is our second Magnum RT. After 50K miles on our 2005 RT we never seriously considered any other car. The 2005 was a very early production car and was almost perfect. The 2008 is even better. Many little things have been tweaked - a little more padding in the armrests, another speaker in the already outstanding Boston Acoustics sound system, redesigned door hinges, a more intuative cruise control. The Magnum RT is a truly outstanding car; to top it all off, it gets great gas mileage! We are now a two Magnum RT family.
