Hey there...will be ordering a Charger in the next couple of weeks for my wife (maybe I'll get it on weekends, he-he) but am debating between the AWD and RWD. It wouldn't be an issue if the Road & Track package was an option with the AWD. I was just wondering what your RWD hemis have been like in the weather over here (snow/ice/tons 'o rain). I do always outfit my cars with an extra set of wheels/snow tires for the winter. She's only had FWD cars (SAAB 95's) so at face value going to RWD with 340 horses is a bigger change than to AWD. Driving is mostly on the autobahn and grocery getting...

Thanks!

BTW- anyone in Spang/Bit/Baumholder/KMC want to buy a Wrangler? :grin:

I love my RWD and the ESP does very well in the harsh germany weather. I say go ahead and get the RWD, IMO. I havent driven an AWD yet, but true american muscle usually came in RWD.

Yeah, my wife's Latvian and she always wanted an American muscle car and with a kid, this is perfect (4 doors). Getting a Chevelle SS ain't happening, heh-heh!

That was my wifes only thing, it must be a four door car, so when that day comes, I will have the extra two doors. Only problem is now, I dont have any room in the trunk for a stroller...lol
