I have a challenger.

Love it. A few niggly issues here and there but those come with every car. Fairly capable off-road , especially if fitted with ARB lockers. Can fit 33"s to them easily with a body lift. I have taken mine everywhere and beyond and is still going strong.

Here's a pic of it somewhere between Norseman and Hyden.

I can honestly say I haven't had a single issue with mine and its now done over 100,000kms. Beautiful to drive, comfortable and good on fuel.

Its a 99 auto pictured in my last post - 2.5" suspension lift, 2" body lift and bits and peices. Getting behind the mig soon to do custom rear wheel carrier, sliders and maybe front bar.

Towed a 6m fiberglass boat to Exmouth many times (1200km from Perth) and have done a lot of touring up north and down south. Isn't to bad for a bit of a play in the rocks but you do have to be mindful of the IFS front end.

Cheers,
Jon

it's a top "truck" as the better half refers to it. Ours is a '98, with an extra leaf in the rear, gives a bit more ride height and load-carrying ability.

Just been away to North Stradbroke, and 5 guys plus all our gear, had no probs even in the soft sand. Now, to convince her we need a more open exhaust...
