The Value of These Cars Is Dropping Faster Than Snow in Winter

The Dodge Charger Can Be Costly Long-Term

The Dodge Charger has undeniable curb appeal. A sharp-looking sports sedan under $30,000? Sounds like a deal. But behind that attractive entry price lies a pile of long-term costs. Over five years, maintenance and upkeep will push your total spend up to about $41,000.

To make matters worse, the Charger's value drops nearly 45% in the first year. If it's your dream car, you might still go for it---but know what you're signing up for. That dream could become an expensive reality check.
