I test drove the challenger r/t also and didn't like the way it responded to steering inputs especially under acceleration. It felt heavy, the suspension was saggy and the interior is not even close to being retro or even sporty for that matter. The exterior IMO captures the "heritage" look though.

They gave me a little bit of trouble at the dealership also, I was with my ex at the time so I told the salesman he could sit in the back haha. After going to grab the keys one of the owners came out and just said take it for a spin alone it's ok. He did say it was their policy though, and that he was making an exception.

I don't think the guys were trying to jump you. If you look at it through the salesmans eyes you don't need 2 buddies there with you to talk financing or sign papers. To him it may seem that you guys were bored and wanted to go for a ride. How is he supposed to know you're not trying to feed him a line. I think all that the guys were trying to say is if you've got a significant other you can go with that person, or go by yourself. It just portrays the image of "serious buyer" a little better than with a few buddies.
