Among the combatants in the so-called pony-car wars, the Dodge has been my favorite as of late, and for a long list of reasons, including the fact that it serves a family better than its competition. Should that even be a factor when selecting a car like this? Unless you're buying one as a third set of wheels, then the answer for any parent raising children is yes. Honestly, my wife and I could put our two girls in the Challenger's back seat, pack the 16.2 cu.-ft. trunk full of luggage, and set off on a cross-country trip in this car, the only compromise being the lack of separate rear doors.
