    Hi all, the lease on my previous car (2015 Jeep Cherokee) ended so it was time for me to get a new car. What did I pick? A 2017 Dodge Charger!

    After getting a new job last year, I could afford to get a nicer car. This is the SXT Rallye AWD model (Michigan winters prefer AWD to RWD but I would prefer RWD in the dry). The Rallye package is essentially a performance-inspired package for the V6 model that makes the car a little more sport/track focused. I got the car in Granite with a black and red leather interior, and it's by far one of the nicest cars inside and out that I've owned.

    When the car arrived, it has 50 miles on it. Since the night I got it (2 nights ago), it has 290 miles on it and a new tank of gas. I've been driving it A LOT to get used to the new car as well as appreciate the driving characteristics. I haven't done any hard pulls because I want to break the engine in for the first 500-1000 miles but I will come back later if this thread gets interest to update on my experience!

    Cheers!

    I like your car! Sadly, i'm too young for a car, but I would like a Mazda CX-9. And who cares about the winter? AWD beats RWD even though the Hellcat has rwd. anyways, be careful, these cars are heavy and require good driving skills from what I've seen.

    Congrats on the new wheels. good call on the 4wd and as far as I'm concerned that car should only come in black.
