    Bloody hell I hope they are good I just spent 12 grand on a 2004 to tow my old rumrunner aroound, got rid of the old Falcon, it pulled it great just a bit dodgy on the slippery ramps.

    I recently picked up a 99 model with 100,000km on the clock. I got it back last night after getting LPG installed.

    They run great on Gas and with fuel prices on the up, I should get the return on the investment within 12mths.

    I'd been looking for a 4x4 for a while, and after test driving a few the challenger got the nod.

    well if you aren't gonna ask for the pics i will

    im interested in buying a challenger in the near future say 3-5 months. ifor those fellas who said they knew of ones for sale could you post the links to the websites or pics of the vehicles. been looking into the challengers for a while now and the only bad reports i have heard is from people who have never driven them and like to badmouth them because theyre a mitsubishi. have been in one on moreton and is a very capable truck on the beach

    Cheers Daniel

    I have one (2003) , The first I think with coil springs all round.
    I put it on gas and now need to upgrade the rear springs as its sitting a bit low now.
    There a good solid car but watch the plastic bits on the body.
    The engine only just cuts it for power, I find mine wanting when towing. Not towing, they go well.
    They do handle like a brick on a skateboard on the road, My 99 Hilux handles much better (New springs may fix this for me).
    Putting it on gas forced the spare wheel into the cargo
    I think I was quoted $1400 to put a swingaway on it. My wife drives it and its the family car on weekends and holidays. When we are camping the spare wheel goes in the box trailer.
    Buying new was a big mistake but I dont plan on selling and will run it into the ground. Second hand they are a bargan
