How difficult is this going to be to daily drive and park given this size? I have never owned a car this big. My car now is bigger than my old one by a little and I can really feel the size when parking it and when driving in tight areas. Its hard to get an idea of this on a test drive...
My brother has a Chrysler 300 hemi (aka charger rt).He is the WORST PERSON WITH CAR MAINTENANCE. Did the first oil change myself @ 30k miles, yes 30k miles. He has 240k on the car now, only issue it has is you can't fill the tank beyond 3/4. If you do, the engine dies when turning hard left lol. Dad had a 488 v10 ram for years. She got to 643k before the tranny popped, engine still ran strong, still was factory sealed. From what I've seen, mopars are dead reliable, at least when Mercedes was in charge. As for warranty work, yes they suck. My sister has a new rubicon that developed some knocking, they said it was normal lol. Damn thing sounds like a diesel with straight pipes. She went to several dealerships before they gixed the valve train failure.
