One other thing I noticed: Charger HC vs Challenger HC Red Eye

[Magnified]

One thing that I did notice about them that was drastically different is that in the Charger I never drove with the windows down. I mean never, just never did it. It's hot here, but that's not really the reason. Can't explain it. Now, in the Challenger I almost never drive with the windows UP. Always down, and when its hot, the AC on full blast (this is local driving, not highway; HW is still windows up). In my old 2-door GTO back in the day I did drive with the windows down in the evenings, but not just all the time like the Challenger. So while it being a two door plays a role, I don't think its the driving force. Thought I'd toss that out there; see what you think the reasons are there.

Nothing cooler than hanging your arm out of a 2 door muscle car coupe

The B-pillar is the problem if you are tall and have your seat back. That’s why I hate every 4 door I mistakenly bought.

Never drive my challenger with the windows down. AC is always on auto (with vented seats turned on) set at 69.

Windows down in my Charger for blower and exhaust noises. Also easier to hear compliments or contenders.

Windows down unless on the highway with the wife. Or when it's too cold.

I'm no Dr. Phil or anything, but here is my best guess---- In the Charger you were embarrassed to be seen in a 4 door car, so you left them up hoping nobody would see you. In the Challenger you know you look bad ass, so windows down to receive all the complements that are sure to come your way. Minivans also have 4 doors. Just saying

I do it all the time..by June..my left arm...looks African American...my right arm..looks Irish...(of which I am neither)

Always with the windows up. I have a hard time with the wind noise.

Windows up always on the freeway / highway; just too noisy. But around time, usually have some music playing (not too loud), windows down, and the symphony of supercharger and exhaust playing. Wish we were all closer and could have a cruise get together.

Can't figure out what...or when it happened,,,but she doesn't like when I drive like a maniac..(her words not mine)..drifting the HC sideways with the traction control off...with the M6 it's way more controllable than an A8...or anything over triple digits...I get the SLOW DOWN will ya...I look @ her and say when did you get old...(that never goes over well)

mine was always saying slow down.

Something changed when we did power tour a couple of times. all of a sudden she was loving burnouts, going sideways and calling people out to make a hit. laughing when we hit a buck twenty.

she probably doesn't feel like her body can take a hard hit like it used to. this happens to many people as they get older. I don't do hardly any crazy shit like I used to.

there's something to that...a couple of months ago..I wasn't payin attention and got hit by one of my guys on a fork lift....(clearly my fault)..took a shot from a 5000 lb. counterweight...knocked me 7ft into a block wall...in my 20's I woulda bounced up like a rubber ball...(nothing broke)...but deep body bruises to my hip and shoulder...it's been 8 wks.. and I still feel the effects
