Yet front wheel drive is complex , hard to setup , build and repair , as well as expensive.  Rear wheel drive is easier to build, hardier as well as being simpler and less expensive to repair.

Thus it is more than refreshing to see the proven , rear wheel drive technology and hardware of the Chrysler “300″  series in another outstanding Chrysler vehicle – in this case being the “60′s Muscle Car Remake “  – 2009 Chrysler Challenger RT motor car.  Bravo.
