Challenger Concept ran out of gas - Page 3

*DGthe3* · 08-30-2007, 08:25 AM

But no japanesse vehicle is ever a gas hog. just like they never need maintence. that is why they are so vastly superior to the pieces of crap detroit builds.

and if you believe that . . .

Any truck is going to be a gas hog pretty much, regardless of whether it's "japanese" or "american".

By the way, a Toyota Tundra is built in San Antonio, TX and Gibson County, IN. If they were built in "Japan" they wouldn't be raced in the Nascar Craftsmen Truck Series.

I'm not saying nothing ever tears up on a Toyota or anything like that, but they are reliable vehicles and they hold their value better than any other vehicle make out there.

Well, before this gets outta hand (I'm psychic, you know

) - I say let's get back to Challenger being Camaro-food.

This sort of argument can go on and on. There are too many points on both sides to argue over.

I'm still floored by the fact that they actually allowed it to run out of gas!

No gauge? psh, stupid excuse Dodge.

Oh, speaking of which - did you know that the guages on the Concept Convertible actually work? Odometer, and Speedometer, I mean.

It's a shame the speedometer won't actually see 55 or so yet!! lol

Stupid! I don't know why I said that - meant Tachometer...

I don't even think I've seen an odometer on the concepts...

It usually take 2, maybe 3 people to push a car that has run out of gas. There are 8 grown men pushing that tank!! How much is this thing supposed to weigh again? rofl

acscamarochick06 · 09-05-2007, 11:22 PM

Haha!

I can see it now...the Camaro concept rolls up to a redlight next to the Challenger concept...

Challenger: "Hey man, how much power is that thing packin'?"
Camaro: "Oh around 400 horses... How about yours?"
Challenger: "ah, you know... 8 men..."

*Mr. Wyndham* · 09-05-2007, 11:39 PM

But the Challenger will get better fuel economy!!! It has "less" fuel in the tank

Looks like Camaro isn't the only car with need for B-pillars, either.
