Car obsession: Ford vs. Dodge

A lot of people don’t know that as girly as I may be, I also have a tough boy-ish side to myself. One aspect of this: the car enthusiast in me, inherited from my dear old dad. Anyway, there was this one time my dad had me look on the web for the new 2012 Ford Mustang Boss 302 Laguna Seca (yes, very long name, I know). I instantly fell in love with it, especially after watching the video they had, which you can also watch.

Apparently, the Laguna Seca has two different keys. Basically, one is for regular on-the-road kind of driving while the other key “ups the anty” and upgrades the car specs for racing capabilities. Yes, that was the only part that really caught my attention, aside from the Mustang looking oh-so-sexy, as usual 😉

A few days after researching about this car, my dad found interest in another car after seeing the displays in one of the usual malls we go somewhere in Makati. This car was an eye-catcher for my dad, especially with it’s vintage-looking rear lights. I am talking about the 2011 Dodge Challenger.

The Challenger, like the Laguna Seca, is looks very sexy as well. The Challenger now has the Keyless Enter-N-Go along with its strong V6 and V8 engines. What’s so great about this car is the fusion of old school and modern in terms of looks along with it’s state of the art technology.

But in comparing the two, the Laguna Seca is better in terms of engine performance. Because of the type of engine it carries. The Mustang can go up to 7,500 rpm whereas the Challenger only goes up to 6,200 rpm. Tough choice between the two, right? I’m biased so I vote for the Laguna Seca. Hahahaha! What about you, what’s your pick? 🙂

Love life because this is live,
