This being mostly and e-body board, your answer will probably be lopsided. But, the RR's are great cars...no doubt!

Well a 1970 Hemi Challenger is indeed a sweet machine, a triple black 1968 hemi road runner is my absolute favorite Mopar.

71 6 Bbl Runner over ANY E body.  But then again, it's my favorite bodystyle, so I'd take a 71 6 Bbl Runner over ANY other car, except a 71 GTX.

I guess I`m a Plymouth guy as my two favorite cars are a `cuda and a road runner.I`d take a `70 runner like mine only with a 440-6 or Hemi 4spd.

E-bodies are sweet but really too small to be comfortable, I'll stay with the 68-70 Chargers and the 71&72 Runneers,...............oh well, what the hell why not have all three? That is why I consider myself one of the luckiest guys on this planet! But I did vote for the R/R. Sorry if I affended anyone, but we have a Chally because my honey wanted one. And I know you all have heard this before, but........I still want a 71 A-body, what a cool ride !

Can you have a Challenge without a Hemi?  I think you can guess what I voted for.  I love the earlier year B-bodies, especially Chargers and 'Runners, but I wouldn't hesitate buying a '70 Hemi Challenger before a '68 Hemi Roadrunner.
1973 Dodge Challenger......................The ongoing project. (00/----\00)
1991 Dodge Stealth R/T Twin-Turbo....The sunny day cruiser (RTBoost)
1990 Toyota Celica GT Liftback...........The new daily & winter driver.
All-American Muscle: 'Cudas and Challengers...Still the Elite and always will be.

I agree, I'm not a fan of the B-Bodies after 70..........
