Brand Manager, Dodge Challenger
Can you say Road Trip? We at Dodge know how to do it right! Get yourself a great looking car with a great motor (legendary Hemi anyone?), comfortable seats and a killer sound system and head for some urban meccas and out of the way places to see the sights! Well that is just what we are doing with the 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8.
Route 1 — San Diego to Seattle
Route 2 — Detroit to Miami
Route 3 — Detroit to Dallas
We embark this week on three adventures around the U.S. to see the sights, or in this case let the Challenger be seen! Follow the exploits of our three drivers: Scott Vandekerckhove, Cheston Carson and Corey Martin as they travel the country looking for you.
Watch here at Red Letter Dodge as each driver posts a regular blog with pictures and highlights from the events, people and unique places that they encounter on their trip. Be a part of our Road Trip, and check out the Challenger as it makes its way to your neighborhood. Below find the itinerary for our three vehicles as Scott drives from Boston to Miami, Cheston from Detroit to Dallas and Corey drives from San Diego to Seattle. If you’re around stop and visit with our drivers and experience the thrills of the all new Dodge Challenger first hand.
We’ll have details of where the cars will be so you can check ‘em out, but here’s the thumbnail:
Wednesday:
#2 Detroit/Cleveland
#3 Detroit/Toledo/South Bend, Ind.

Hello Mark,
We love the car and the brand, I represent Will Castro, star of hit show, Unique Whips, on Speed Channel. We love to chat with someone from your team about working together. We are in the midst of shooting our 4th season, and are looking for deep strategic partners.
I do happen to know Adam S Murfree from my days representing Funkmaster Flex…just so that you can weigh the seriousness of my inquiry.
My asst email is: brooke.logan@earthlink.net
I seen a bunch of Challengers at the Mopar Nationals this past weekend. Saturday night was really cool at the Heath super cruise seen a few doing burn outs. The car is really nice, I can not wait to get an R/T with the side stripe.
I love the road trip idea. I have one planned from NW Indiana to Morrow, GA when my ‘09 Challenger R/T arrives in 3 weeks. We’re headed to SpeedFactory for some major mods taking us from 375 hp to 540+ hp ! The trip home should be faster than the trip going there ! Have a great run.
