Can't help you on the mileage but they have ample power.4 adults and luggage would make them chug but they are fun to drive and have plenty of power for daily driving.The 3.5 is a torqey motor.If it will move a 300 or charger it will do fine in a challenger.

3.5 engine..... the "383" of the 2000's. I've heard from customers 26-30. Unfortunately the 3.5 in our pacifica has only been good for 23, but it's a HEAVY car.

That's why I bought my 2009 SE. They weren't cutting any deals on the V8s when I bought mine. I'll see if I can attach a PDF of my spreadsheet of my mileage. Most of the mileage about 25 MPG is highway trips, below is Dallas traffic (city) driving.

can't speak for the chally. but we had a 07 magnum with the 3.5. took quite a few trips in it. best it ever got was 27mpg but that was cruising through Va. doing 45-55 mph the entire time. under normal driving conditions and speeds it would get just under 25 mpg. car had plenty of power for our use. even loaded and pulling a loaded 4x8 utility trailer it was fine. shame it was such a pile of crap though.


It's better to keep your mouth shut and give the impression that you're stupid than to open it and remove all doubt.
