    The 2006 Dodge Charger possibly could be the car that replaces my 1994 Dodge
    Intrepid. I'm glad they made it a 4-door.

    The appearance of the Chrysler 300C still has not grown on me. Whenever I
    see one I think "cartoon car". I have similar thoughts about the Prowler
    and the PT Cruiser.

    Oops. I forgot. It's RWD. Never mind.

  3. You could always spend less time making stupid remarks and more time
    learning how to drive...!

    Wow. Quite a non-sequitur. What are smoking?

  5. Well, no, not really. Y'see, there's only one reason to bitch about a car
    being RWD, and that is that you don't know how to drive.

    They must do a good job of plowing and salting the streets wherever it is in
    Michigan that you drive. Probably not upper peninsula, right?

    I grew up driving in Minnesota, and learned to drive on ice and snow in RWD
    vehicles. FWD is much better. AWD even better.

    You see, there are other reasons to bitch about a car being RWD.

    Don't worry about Daniel. He is getting older and when that happens, older
    people just like to bitch about everything. Example( Elton John).

    No offense to Daniel! ;)

  8. I've driven many miles for years in winter in CO, MI, IL and ON, in
    properly-equipped RWD cars, and never had a problem. Also driven many
    miles for years in winter in CO, MI, IL and ON, in properly-equipped FWD
    cars, and never had a problem.

    The trouble is on your end; you don't know how to drive and/or you don't
    know how to select tires. That's certainly not the car's fault.

    Chrysler claims that advances in traction control compensate in snow to make
    RWD ok. You could get a AWD Magnum if they are available yet.

  10. RWD is OK. I've got a 300C with ESP and could barely make it up my driveway
    with less than one inch of snow on the ground. The incline is about 15
    degrees, my FWD car and minivan had no problems.

    Mr Stern has issues, I think his wife cut him off or maybe his Buddy
    AARCUDA69062 found another buddy to play with

  13. I am reminded of a series on UK TV. It has articulate and known older men
    giving their forthright opinions about this and that.

    It's called "Grumpy Old Men".

    We may have a candidate from this NG...

    I used to live in Rochester NY before radial tires were popular. I had a 71
    Dart Swinger and used snow tires. Horrible in the ice and snow. Now I live
    in NC. A few years ago we had a freak 2 foot snow storm. Couldn't believe
    how well my FWD 94 LHS did in it.

  15. And the tires on your 300C are...?
