Brief Review: 2008 Dodge Avenger SXT, 4-Cylinder

Long story short, with the headwinds, it felt as if I was pushing a Ford LTD down the highway.



2008 Dodge Avenger SXT
Engine: 2.4L, DOHC Inline-4, with Variable Valve Timing -- rated at 173 hp and 166 ft-lbs torque
Driveline: FWD, Automatic
Class: Mid-Size Sedan
EPA Rating: 21/30

Eco-Modder Testing:
Driving Style: Highway Cruise -- avg. 5-15 under limit of 65-75 (consistent headwinds)
____________
29.1 MPG
53 MPH Average Speed
1006 Miles
18.9 Hours
34.5 Gallons
--------------

Interior: "Sea of Grey"



The Sirius Sat Radio was a nice touch -- as was the stereo (sounded decent)

BTW, this "Cooler Thing" did absolutely nothing...


What a second, is that Bud Light?

It did keep some maps and the driving stats+pen at a frigid 60 Degrees (not perfect for beverages).

Conclusion: Don't bother. The thing's an anvil with "ACME" written all over it.
