Road Test: 2009 Dodge Challenger R/T Manual

The R/T model trumps its SRT8 big brother in our book

The most breathless talk about the Dodge Challenger tends to center around the letters S, R, and T and the number 8. The high-po-est form of Dodge's muscle car was the only choice offered for the initial 2008 run, and although still fun, it made do with a five-speed slushbox. Things have changed for 2009 with the addition of a 5.7-liter Hemi R/T model and a manual-transmission option for both V-8

7-year-old heeds Dodge marketers, "grabs life"...and grandma's Durango

Video: Fifth Gear pits Starsky & Hutch vs the Good Old Boys

Over the past half century, many cars have played prominent parts on American TV shows ranging from Car 54 Where Are You? to Knight Rider. For reasons known only to movie producers, two TV-car favorites have made dubious comebacks on the silver screen, and Fifth Gear's Vicki Butler-Henderson decided to put them head-to-head on the race track. For the first time, the oh-so-subtle red-and-white Ford Gran Torino and the bright orange Sam Abuelsamid
