We have a 2005 Dodge Magnum 8 cylinder Hemi with 150,000 miles on it. Most are highway miles as it was the car my husband drove 45 miles to work and back. It is sooooo comfortable, we can't stand to part with it.d. It,s now driven only 50 miles per week. When the a/c developed a leak and was going to be a $1500 fix, we thought, maybe it's time to buy new.
So far, we have not found a car with seats as big or as comfy a ride or as much room in the back without being an SUV. Dodge quit making the Magnum.
We've done good maintenance. The dealer said the car is in great shape otherwise except for some brake work. Goodyear guy said get the A/c recharged when needed and keep the car. This is our trip car (to PA, the Keys, etc.) we will try this for awhile and see what happens.
My point is we can afford a new car but can't find one we like as much as this one.
