Probably the V for ease of entry regarding the rear seat.
Either way. Fun choice.
So, to quote and answer myself...
I currently have a Challenger RT 5.7 8 speed rental... and frankly, it's a lot more than I was expecting.
It's a great GT car. (not sports car) The V is a different animal than this.
It makes the right noises, moves quicker than anticipated (can't believe it's just the modern version of the 5.7 in my 12 year old Jeep) and is a great highway car. It reacts quicker and better than expected but is pure unapologetic throw back in looks and size. The hood is huge, and there are blindspots and the seats only for small children or short trips but damn, I like this thing a lot. Even with them being everywhere. Mash the throttle and it moves a hell of a lot better than the size suggests... and that sound. Well, I've already mentioned it.
Currently getting 20mpg in mixed driving. The interior (it's a 2017) ain't bad at all. It's an interesting vehicle. Drive 'em all and make your choice. There's really no dog in this group. (What an age we live in)
Just got done searching autotrader in my price range (for a manual) if I decide to chuck practicality to the wind with my next purchase.
