Dodge Magnum rental

I know this was at the bottom of the line but ...
Initially pleased to get a Magnum Wagon to tool around the Big Easy but was dissapointed. On the plus side, plenty roomy for 5 plus luggage (it's a wagon).
Way cheap interior, but that's ok it's a rental.
Cruise stalk adjacent to turn signal stalk, me no likey, lucky I didn't rear end somebody just groping for the turn signal.
But, the single thing most dissapointed me, the 190hp hooked to the slush box.
What were those 190 horses busy doing? Fighting with the transmission I suppose. I couldn't coax it to accelerate from 60mph, without a dramatic downshift, no matter how light the throttle. Even in third the tromp and brake was tought to pace traffic.
Turbo Lag has nothing on this baby!
Can't imagine the highoutput versions would compare favorably with the wagons Saab offers, all things considered.
