2009 Dodge Avenger Texas, TX
Reader’s Question:
Sadly, I can’t afford a Dodge Viper, and my wife doesn’t want me behind the wheel of a “macho” car around here in Texas. Is there a way for me to get the best of both worlds from Dodge?

Good day, Tom! You want macho? Frankly, I haven’t really used that word in quite a while, MACHO. Seriously, man, you need to get an update…kidding there. Well, personally, I still drool at the Dodge Viper, but when functionality is going to be the gauge…and the missus is breathing down my neck, I’d go with a 2009 Dodge Avenger. For two letters more, you might get what you wish for.
What’s with the Avenger aside from the longer spelling compared to Viper? Although I am not saying that this is a capable substitute, the 2009 Avenger does have an inkling of the good looks that the Dodge Viper has. We will talking more about what the wife wants, something subdued for you. The Dodge Avenger is just that, subdued with its base 173 horsepower 2.4 Liter engine. Of course, you can always go upstream with a 3.5 Liter V6 but what will the wife say? Fine, you can indulge in the 235 horsepower 6-speed auto transmission. We’ll keep it between ourselves. For your family trips, it even has beverage coolers. At least the wife won’t complain of warm drinks whenever you two are driving out of Texas. So there, that’s enough to whet your appetite. Go for a test drive at your nearest Houston Dodge dealer.
