just bought an 07 AWD R/T, and so far, i love it. it handles great, and the suspension is about what id expect from a stock ride. I bought it for the snow up here (I toyed with the idea of the SRT8, and a 425 HP RWD sled kinda made me rethink things) the ratio is 65%-35% rear to front, and having test driven the RWD models along side this one, i cant tell a difference in the acceleration, they both give you a kick in the pants, but you cant really burn out in an AWD (which might give you a better time off the line, but i haven't ops tested that ;-)
