The 5.7L Hemi is what is spec'd in all of our Chargers. We did not want the V6's, and as mentioned before, I have never driven them. Supposedly their performance is comparable to the Ford Police Interceptor with it's 4.6L V8. Initially, they were having overheating/cooling problems with the V6 Charger Police sedans. I know Wayland runs the 6's, but don't know if they experienced any problems with them. Any other departments I know of that have Chargers went with the Hemi V8's like us. For 2009, they have introduced a "second-generation" 5.7L Hemi that will up the horsepower from 340 to 368 in the police package units.
