Trailers?

yup...trailers. I dont know why they are worried about it fitting on a car trailer but they were. I guess they are not confident of its reliablility. Chevy guys..go figure.

Ok to set the record straight the new CHALLENGER will not weigh 4000#. The 4 door CHARGER only weighs 3700. If you look at all the safety gizmos and and luxury doodads. Its a wonder it isnt 2.5 tons.

I Feel they have missed the mark on the new CAMARO. Its styling is just odd to me. The whole car reminds me of a 72 grand prix too long in front and the stumpy rear is just not sexy.

I agree with some posters retro would look better. Good looks are timeless thats my point and I am sticking to it.

Okay maybe a production version won't weigh over 4000 lbs, but the concept car did weigh over 4000 lbs. Atleast thats what the tag says.
