hey guys, I'm having a little trouble deciding which charger to get. I orginally was plannig on buyin the SRT-8 after i sold my chevelle, but it seems pointless since I'm stationed in Michigan and this car would not do to well in the snow. So, now its between a 2007 r/t with the road and track package, or a r/t with the awd. I was planning on gettin either one loaded. The other question is that I am only 20, so, how would having one ofthese change my insurance? And, as far as performance mods what would be the most bang for the buck? my chevelle was procharged and cranked out a lil over 550 horse, so I'm used to drivng something that really runs. Any help is greatly appreciated. thank you

I'm kind of confused. The R/T w/ Road & Track package isn't going to handle the snow any better than an SRT8. If you're going to go with RWD and can afford an SRT8, then GET THE SRT8. There's really no reason to downgrade. If you want the added traction of AWD, then get the R/T. Now your down to deciding betweenmore power or AWD. If you want something to compare to the power of your Chevelle, then you're definitely going to want to go with the SRT8 and mod the heck out of it. I don't know if it's even possible to get to 550 HP with the R/T.

Just my input.

I'm equally as confused for the same reasons Black Hawk stated. Also, if you can drive a 550 Chevelle (I'm assuming you drove it?), then why would a Charger, with less hp, cause you any more problems?

PS: Count on your insurance going up - you should be able to get a quote from your current insurance agent on the cost.
