You have a great diesel then, and you drove a far different Challenger than the one I have in my garage !! I've been driving 5.7 Hemis for 3 years now, so it's not like I'm coming from a 4 cylinder or some other little mill; and I'm quite impressed with this motor and this car.

BTW, whose car did you drive? I havn't found a dealer yet that gave test drives.
