2005 Dodge Magnum Pros and Cons at TrueDelta: Owner Pros and Cons by fsvoboda

Pros: R/T is very powerful and the long wheel base makes for a very comfortable ride. Steering is tight and competent. The Boston Acoustic stereo system is very good. The bun warmer seats are comfortable. The car has electrically adjustable seats/petals and since I am 6'2", this is one of the few cars that has given me ample leg room. The car is easy to maintain as long as long as you change the oil every 3000 miles. According to dealer, this car was designed by Daimler/Chrysler/Benz. He claims the under carriage, electrical system, transmission, suspension; exhaust system, twin fuel tanks, oversized braking system, interior heating/cooling system and cruise controls come from Daimler/Benz.Chrysler did the interior, outside body components and engine. Cons: The heating and cooling controls can be very confusing; the cruise control is located where theturn signals should be located. The interior has too much plastic. The HEMI engine uses 16 spark plugs. The battery is located in the rear body compartment. The owner's manual specifies mid or high grade fuel. Overall if they had offered an updated 2017 Magnum R/T or later version of this car, I would purchase another one.
