Driving a giant truck is worse than driving a charger, challenger, etc

Rented one for work last week. R/T Hemi. Makes lots of noise and reasonably quick after a few seconds of noise. Almost like 80's car Turbo Lag which is surprising for a big V8.
Try to turn or brake and it feels like it weighs as much as a full-size garbage truck. Interior was better than Camaro's I've rented but the Camaro definitely felt more nimble. Trunk space in the Challenger was much better than the Camaro. Camaro trunk is useless. I was a bit surprised at how well it handled ice/snow and getting up to Breckinridge.

I was concentrating on the license plate so much, that I completely missed the mini van pulling a loaded trailer making that turn.

Question for military history experts:
Would a battalion of 1776 British Regular Infantry be able to repel a charge of Colonials driving six Dodge Challengers at max speed over the meadow?
Follow up question: If "No", then, would it change your answer if General George Washington himself were driving a SEVENTH Dodge Challenger with a loud speaker blaring the following:
"And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee."

ZL1 Camaro 1LE is easily the best track performance car for your money in the world currently.

I like the looks of the challenger and charger, but not a sports car guy. More of an SUV peep. Extra space in SUV is greatly appreciated.

I've never driven one but this is exactly how I imagine it feeling.
Quick search says 3,894 to 4,448 lbs. Quite a pig.

Challenger handles like a traditional muscle car.
The new Camaro handles like a sports car.
I had a Camaro as a daily driver and it was a fine vehicle, but very cramped. Very little headroom and the backseat is nigh useless.
The Challenger is a better daily driver and can function better as a primary vehicle; the backseat and trunk are much more spacious.
That said, my vehicle "end game" is to have a daily driver truck and a convertible V8 Camaro as a toy. But if you're purchasing for a primary vehicle, want a coupe muscle car, and like retro looks, the Challenger is your car.

Why do people have such a hard time spelling Camaro? It's one of those names I see constantly misspelled. That, along with German Shepherd.

Convertibles are for old bald dudes and chicks. I will eventually fall into one category.
