On Monday we showed you Gregory’s Challenger. Well, he has a pretty cool Jeep, too!
Ordered the Jeep In February 2011 for my wife…..been modding it ever since. It’s my wife’s daily driver with 34K on it now…24K miles since I did the turbo install.

Jalopnik’s 2013 Dodge Charger R/T Daytona Review
Jalopnik recently drove a 2013 Dodge Charger R/T Daytona all over Texas, and managed to snap a pic of it in front of the “Playboy Marfa” art installation I told you about last month. Although the reviewer seemed to like the car, he was disappointed by the 5-speed automatic and the quiet exhaust note. Oh, and the fuel economy. Well, the exhaust is an easy fix.

Mike Musto’s Mopars
I’ve known Mike for several years now and got to drive the Daytona shortly after he finished the build. Last year, Mike devoted an episode of Big Muscle to his ’68 Charger and his ’69 Daytona, and with over half a million views, I’d say people like his old B-bodies. Check out the episode after the jump!
