I love my 2014 Dodge Charger R/T Plus AWD Sport. But I have been debating if I should get a new vehicle soon. I am not bored with car, and get a ton of compliments on it. But as many of you know I am an automotive spy photographer on the side, and sitting so low really doesn't help when you are trying to get a shot of the latest truck or SUV when they sit so high or in a hilly area. Not to mention my car has been BOLO'd about a million times by every test driver since it sticks out like a sore thumb. lol.
I don't want to spend a ton of money either. I always buy used. But here is what I am think and I want your opinion on what I should start looking into. Here is my have to have things...

- Has to be a HEMI
- I attend a lot of car show and cars & coffee events, I want something I can have fun modifying
- Cost, while I love the new Rebel... it is out of my price range for an $50,000 pickup. Although, Ram 1500 Big Horn Black Editions are nice, but would be pressing my spending allowance.
- Has to be great in the snow... yeah, thanks Michigan.
- I am a semi-professional photographer and shoot a lot of offshore boat racing events around the midwest and east coast. I need something comfortable. (I am 6'1" and built like a linebacker).
- I usually don't have people with me, but I always have camera gear with me. So I need room but not a ton.
- I want something sporty and fun to drive. It doesn't have to be a HELLCAT but has to have some pickup and sound good doing so.
