I would take another Challenger in a heart beat. We bought a brand new Challenger when they came out, in 1970. 340, 4 barrel, 4 speed stick shift, God that was a beauty of a car and it drove like stink. PLUS, great gas mileage for a car like that, it averaged around 30 mpg. As my husband became more involved in the oil patch and more conservative in his ways, the color purple no longer appealed to him and he had it repainted it that deep British racing green.
When we bought it, we paid $3000 for it, and that was brand new price. We never had kids then and we took that car everywhere, was the only vehicle we had at that time. We got some looks when we were driving down the forestry trunk road and going camping with that vehicle.
