I have a 2005 dodge caravan. When your driving and turn the steering wheel wants to fight me and push back in the other direction. Also when your trying to turn tight in a parking lot something is binding up and popping really hard almost jolting the car. What do you think would be the cause of this?
I don't think it makes me nuts for not just wanting to get around but be pushed back in my seat! Not to mention you get to where you're going sooner! Just gotta be reasonable with where and when and how you drive, thats the part that most people don't get right, get in accidents, and make everyone else look bad and crazy.
@@rhondohslade You obviously haven't been in one of those cars then. I've seen that feeling of being pushed back turn non-believers into lovers. Don't knock it til you try it.
@@WhatchamawhozitI bought one with 37k miles for a shade over $20k last year. I’m not sure they’re gonna be worth too much in the future. The 6.4 is arguably a better motor in almost every way.
@@Whatchamawhozitthat's like buying shoes and not wearing them. Most people buy cars to drive them. It would be awesome to buy two, one to drive and one to preserve, but it just isn't feasible for your average person.
Back in 1970, my dad REALLY wanted a "new-at-the-time" 340 Plymouth Duster. My mom convinced him to get the cheaper one with the 318. He never liked it and sold it a couple years later. Sometimes a fire-breathing V8 is the only thing that makes a Chrysler product worth buying.
@@drunkhusband6257 I'm not sure if being fast is as important as being "faster". As in being "cooler". Just being more rare at the cruise night or show.
a friend of mine got one of these with the V6, they are still damn quick lol..... People forget that a modern V6 and even some 4 bangers get more power out of them now than most of the V8s from the 1900s and up to the mid 2000's.
Got one of the 2019 SXT's with 4 wheel drive activation. Had one owner and 30,000 miles. Apart from the ability to drive in 4 wheel drive, it's the same car as this one. I'm glad to know I didn't let my ego get the better of me and go for a big V8. It even handled a foot and a half of snow even in 2 wheel drive with no issue.
I have a 2021 R/T I don't rag the hell out of it, but I also don't baby it. I drive like it was intended to be driven. I can count on one hand the number of times I broke the rearend loose hitting the gas. Respect your car and it will last you. 4:06 my best mileage speed is 68 mph and I get 25mpg. Local driving is between 19 and 21mpg. 6:17 I agree with Scotty here you don't need the fire breathing 700hp monster motor at 375hp I'm gonna be quicker than 90% of the other vehicles out there without blowing through a set of tires every six months.
Tbh, most people that buy the R/Ts don’t rag them out, you just have to be careful when buying them used to be sure they haven’t been ragged out. You just have to know what to look for. All the V8s get a bad wrap, especially now with all the TH-camrs that buy them and treat them like crap.
This is one of the best videos that I've seen you do yet Scotty. I still wouldn't trade my 1988 Chevy Camaro for anything in the world. And it is also a V6 with 57,000 original miles on it.
I own a 2019 Challenger GT with the 305hp v/6 and am happy with the car. It's quick enough for me. I get asked all the time if it's a hemi scat pack Challenger because of the hood scoop and 20" wheels. I tell them it's a v/6 and they give me an odd look. Too bad the SXT and GT's get a bad rap.
I live in northeast ohio so winters are bad and it rains so damn much here . My Gt handles like a boss in the weather and still have the speed I like to get up on highway furthermore the look is 10/10. Did I mention insurance is way cheaper than getting a scat/hellcat .
I don't understand why Chrysler made people get 20 inch wheels. When you have less wheel, like 18's it will give you more tire. 20's are easily damaged by bad roads and have extra weight in the worst place to have it on the car.
@@auteurfiddler8706 20" wheels because it's the look people want(ed). I could see a trend back to 18" and fat sidewalls to emulate the look of the drag strip specific Demon 170 and Super Bee models.
I got my 2012 sxt plus rallye redline in 2015 for 17,500 2nd owner and had around 30,000 miles. I love it. ❤️. Doesnt even look the same anymore and i dont think i will ever get rid of it.
Very true. I had a hotrodded 57 Chevy when I was just out of high school. It had a really built 327 with all kinds of aftermarket parts and it was only around 300 HP or a little over... but it got 8 miles to the gallon on a good day!!! New motor technology is amazing. The Ecoboost Mustang 4-cylinder gets over 300 HP.
I rented a Challenger when I was visiting California. The V6 does make really good power. The back seat is impossible to get into. It was fun and comfortable to drive. Great stereo with really good Bluetooth and Car Play.
I had a 2017 Challenger SXT for about five years before I sold it to get out of debt. MAN WAS THAT CAR FUN! Yes, even with "just" the V6. It was a screamer. Now I drive a $1,400 beater.
I still have my 18 camry which will be paid off soon but bought an $800 camry this year year as well. Between the 3 I plan on no car payments and staying out of debt as much as I possibly can going forward.
I’m fairly sure a Camry, maxima, or even a 1987 Buick has more power and performance. The ladder I guarantee will outperform not only the sxt, but the gt, rt, and with 3k in mods the scatpack 6.4. From experience I know the maxima cvt 300hp will smoke it, obviously the gt and rt would too. The gn is not even close as that’s hellcat territory with a couple bolt Ons reliably
In 2017 you could have gotten a 1987 Buick gn that would do 4 seconds faster in the quarter with a couple bolt ons. 8k for the car 2k for the mods, although most came with the mods.
@@StanMarsh-jz7wh says anyone who couldn’t even afford a v6 to begin with let alone a hemi lol, what you driving lil bro ? if it’s not a muscle/ sport car your comment hold less weight then air itself. j stfu 😂
i have a 2020 sxt chally and she has 75k+ and runs like a DREAM don’t let nobody talk down on ya ride 😎 most would kill just to have it in their driveway lol
I bought my 2022 Dodge Challenger SXT. The only problem was the plastic oil cooler housing, which began leaking oil after I changed the oil. I successfully replaced it with an aluminium one I bought from Advance Auto. It wasn't easy. Just stick to all torque specs, and everything will be fine.
I love my 2012 Redline Challenger. Brought it new for 24,000 loaded and I put 84000 K on the odometer, and it still looks good, very dependable. I get offers but I'm going to hold on to it. My wife has the AWD Chrysler 300S with that V6, and it's a great car too. Oh by the way both are paid off...
@TittieSprinkles that oil you were missing was evap. I run amsoil in mine and barely miss any oil when oil change is due. If it was getting past the rings it would be any oil.
I got a focus st for this same reason. It’s quick, has 4 doors, factory turbo 6 speed. Damn near the same amount of power of one of these but much less weight lol. It’s been awesome its a great daily driver, but very fun to drive in the canyons when the little one isn’t with us.
I got a 2020 Fusion Titanium with the 2 L twin turbo eco boost. Not only is it quick (has sport mode) it is fun to drive, gets great mileage and is four door. Handles great with the AWD.
You nailed it S. I love my 2011 SE with the track package. Great has mileage, engine 307 moves, plus I just yesterday removed the K&N and pit in the Mahle hellcat filter with 1100 cfm. Set the throttle body and the SE is really a fast 6 cyl. Welcome to the party brother were not getting any younger! B
I was looking around at these, now that the price is low. You can find ones with the 5.7L truck Hemi engine, they don't have 700 hp, but they have enough more horsepower than the V-6s to put a real smile on your face, they sound great and cost $10-$15k depending on year and mileage. I think there are a couple of years that should be avoided (can't remember), but otherwise why not? Not great gas mileage, but not horrible either for what it is. They're kind of an end of era. Over the next 20 or 40 years I'm sure electrics will actually overtake them. None of the V-8s can compete with a Tesla on speed.
I own a red 2021 R/T T/A, 5.7 Hemi V8, 6 speed manual transmission. It was my dream car since i was a kid and by far it was the best auto purchase i made, always puts a smile on my face. It's not the fastest thing on the road (with Hellcats n all) but it's fast enough to have fun. So far i'm at 26k miles and only did regular maintenance, everything works perfect. In terms of fuel mileage, mine is pretty decent, i get around 15-17 MPG in the city and around 20-24 MPG on the highway. I occasionally did launches for fun but i don't drive it hard that often.
I had a 2012 R/T with 225,000 miles on it I wanted to take up to Scotty, and it was totalled by an uninsured driver 2 weeks ago...still ran when he drove it up onto the tow truck....looking at prices and interest rates now, ugh.
I couldn't get a V8 because I live 8000 ft up mass snow! AWD whips around awesome in the snow! Wayyy fast enough, though I miss the 8 sound.Went 102 in a curvy canyon thank God survived almost wiped out never do it again!But she handled like a dream.Mine is an 18 bought in 2019 everything pristine until the BEAR THREW OUR TRASH CAN AROUND DENTED UP MY WHOLE DRIVERS SIDE door and front fender😠 I'm a 57 year old woman that's always loved fast cars.
I have one (V6 Challenger). Nice car. Plenty of power when needed. It's my daily driver and has AWD for winter driving. I also have a Mustang GT... That's definitely a fun car and way more powerful, but the Challenger is way better on gas for going to work every day and still fun driving. And it is surprisingly agile for a big car.
I had one and it was a dream come true. I sold it after the dream wore off. I bought it with 9k miles and hail damage for 20K in 2017. Drove it till 2019 and had 20k miles on it and sold it for 20k. Of course I fixed the hail damage along the way with bondo and carbon fiber wrap and it looked excellent. I got rid of it because you said I could look forward to electrical problems.
I drove one of the older chargers with the 3.5 v6 and was impressed with the power output of it. Quite a fun car to drive downside they attract the police and you can’t see for crap out of them with the blind spots lol
I had the V6 Charger to use as a daily driver and knowing I was going to put lots of miles on it. Ran perfect, great mileage, peppy engine, and was cheap to buy and own. Finances imporved and I moved up to a Scat Pack for a daily and a Hellcat Redye for weekends. Also have a Zl1 and a Tacoma for hauling stuff. The Scat has 485 HP and gets great mileage on the highway. The Redeye is 800 HP. Not sure what the mileage is but the insurance and personal property taxes are crazy high. If you take your eye off it for a minute it will be stolen. Fast car but sort of a PITA since you can't even park it at a hotel as it will be gone in the AM.
I own a 2018 sxt It turns heads everywhere I go. Yes,everyone asks if it's a v8. And I surprise the heck out of ''em when I say it's a 6 shooter. Has enough power to have fun, it's sporty, good on gas and my insurance is low. With a pedal commander it'll definitely wake up that lil v6. I enjoy driving it everyday.
Just cause you open the throttle a little faster doesn't Mean it's faster 😂😂 and it's a v6 you're just as fast a 2.0 turbo from a Honda prob slower cause they can tune the turbos
@@812MSSdo you really think most people can tell the difference between the models. A challenger is a challenger for common people who like the look of muscle cars
@@812MSS Lol cus u havent seen mine Staggered tire set up Runnin 315s in the back The stance is what does it. I know you will disagree. But any car with the right stance regardless of engine size will turn heads. Plus all the ladies it pulls will beg to differ.. Lol they dont no it aint a hemi They just see the pretty car haha
@@feliciahall2858I just took a Charger SXT on a road trip from Texas to Pennsylvania and got 36 mpg. I took it easy for the most part, so that would probably be the max you can get out of them.
Scott, not everyone who has (wants) a V8 will drive erratically, doing burnouts and stuff 😂. I had one and drove responsibly. I loved the power and speed. I'm back in the market for one! What do you think? 🤪
Sorry Scott 300 hp minivan engine in a muscle car isn’t enough. Same engine as a ramcv minivan work van. At the very least get the 5.7 hemi. Sounds great, pulls hard, and likes upgrades.
Nice ride! I always loved the last generation of SHO. True sleeper sedan. I wanted one but figured I would kill myself so I got a Fusion Hybrid instead lol
@@robertgreenhalge1708 Got mine from my 85-year-old mom after she went into the nursing home, was my stepdads dream car, he bought it one year before he died, now it is mine.
Sorry scotty not many people are gonna agree with this 😂 But I get it. The v6 muscle cars are frowned upon but they are pretty decent if you want a kicky stylish commuter car! Also, for the enthusiasts here V6 Muscle cars have no “DRIFT TAX!” Get yourself a v6 camaro or mustang and learn how to drift or just slide around for less than 10k!
I mean I just got a 2023 challenger scat pack for $36,500 with 15 miles on it. It had hail damage. I replaced the hood and i am happy with it. It gets 15mpg in town and i can get 28 mpg on the highway with the cruise set to 68
Nice video! I daily drive a 2017 dodge challenger T/A 5.7 hemi. That v6 is always gonna get better gas milage, but I aint doing too bad at 22mpg. I drive Austin area to Killeen all the time for my job as a firefighter , lots of highway. I occasionally start up fast, but it does balance out pretty well when it kicks down into 4 cylinder. Picked her up for 24k, got 14k for my Ram truck with 115k miles. If Scotty ever wanted to take a look at it and make a video, I would happily make the drive to come see him.
The full challenger experience is with a V8. (Even if it’s just the 5.7L) You just can’t beat its power and sound!! I’d rather have a V8 with a manual any day!
I have a 21 Challenger Scat Pack, which has the 6.4L & I easily get 20+ mpg on the highway in sport mode with 12" wide tires on all 4 corners. My MPG for daily driving is around 14-15.
Dodge is axing the Challenger production at the end of this year. I thought they would come out with a new gen, but nope. This same body style is 15 years old now.
Bought my 2012 R/T with the V8 with 36k for just under 20k but that was 3 years ago. Man are you wrong about the V8 though, why buy a muscle car with no muscle? The sound & feel does not even compare... Hemi will probably last longer too if you take care of it. Power to weight ratio is much better and you still get decent fuel mileage with the manual
This is crazy, I've been watching you for years and lately I've been hearing you mention Rhode Island. I'm from Rhode Island, do you live here now? I don't catch every episode so I must have missed that one.
Yeah when I was doing electrical work they gave me a minivan with that engine. Enough power (I guess) for a work van but not for a muscle car. A cvt v6 Nissan maxima would smoke it. Get the awd v6 at least if you’re going to get one, but the 5.7 isn’t bad on gas if you’re not heavy on the foot. Sounds 1,000x better too, and it makes some torque. Like getting a Ferarri with a Prius motor in it.
Surprisingly enough the 3.6L in the Chrysler Pacifica is fast, had one as a rental and raced a tuned 6.0L with it and it walked away from him like he was sitting still. Mind you we were doing about 50 mph and he was in boost already I just floored it and pulled away. Before you say it yes he was racing me he locked eyes with me then went.
I'm thinking about buying one of these its drastically cheaper than a hellcat or demon you're basically just getting a working & driving modern muscle car for a 10th of the cost plus you can modify as you please to get to where you wanna be you arent starting out with too much like the bigger V8's
That's nice. I have a 14' Charger R/T non- modified, and I don't drive like a maniac myself, I've put 40,000 miles on it over 5 years, and has 100,101 miles with no issues. Only thing about the 3.6 liter engines is that stupid oil filter element. I personally would get an adaptor kit so you could put a regular spin on oil filter on it.

In 2017 you could have gotten a 1987 Buick gn that would do 4 seconds faster in the quarter with a couple bolt ons. 8k for the car 2k for the mods, although most came with the mods.
I have an old V6 Mustang and a Hellcat Charger. Believe me, it’s more fun to drive a slow car fast than a fast car slow 😀
Scotty will never retire. He'll just eventually get to crazy to make videos.
I have a 21 Challenger SXT and it gets way too much hate, this car is pretty quick for a six cylinder.
Because V6 in a Challenger is trash no matter Scotties opinion.
@@StanMarsh-jz7wh says anyone who couldn’t even afford a v6 to begin with let alone a hemi lol, what you driving lil bro ? if it’s not a muscle/ sport car your comment hold less weight then air itself. j stfu 😂
i have a 2020 sxt chally and she has 75k+ and runs like a DREAM don’t let nobody talk down on ya ride 😎 most would kill just to have it in their driveway lol
@@StanMarsh-jz7wh Are you talking ego or just unreliable ?
Keep cranking them out, Scotty!
My car finally went up thank you Scotty for the honest video and the great conversations we had you truly are the man
Sorry for blasting Dr Dre on you haha

I bought my 2022 Dodge Challenger SXT.
The only problem was the plastic oil cooler housing, which began leaking oil after I changed the oil.
I successfully replaced it with an aluminium one I bought from Advance Auto.
It wasn't easy.
Just stick to all torque specs, and everything will be fine.
I love my 2012 Redline Challenger. Brought it new for 24,000 loaded and I put 84000 K on the odometer, and it still looks good, very dependable. I get offers but I'm going to hold on to it. My wife has the AWD Chrysler 300S with that V6, and it's a great car too. Oh by the way both are paid off...
Had that v6 it's slow and burns oil have fun
Nope I go nearly 7000 miles on full synthetic for the oil change. No issues not a drop is burned or any leaks...
I would hope so. It’s been 11 years
@TittieSprinkles that oil you were missing was evap. I run amsoil in mine and barely miss any oil when oil change is due. If it was getting past the rings it would be any oil.
I got a focus st for this same reason. It’s quick, has 4 doors, factory turbo 6 speed. Damn near the same amount of power of one of these but much less weight lol. It’s been awesome its a great daily driver, but very fun to drive in the canyons when the little one isn’t with us.
I got a 2020 Fusion Titanium with the 2 L twin turbo eco boost. Not only is it quick (has sport mode) it is fun to drive, gets great mileage and is four door. Handles great with the AWD.
You nailed it S. I love my 2011 SE with the track package. Great has mileage, engine 307 moves, plus I just yesterday removed the K&N and pit in the Mahle hellcat filter with 1100 cfm. Set the throttle body and the SE is really a fast 6 cyl. Welcome to the party brother were not getting any younger! B
You are simply above and beyond Scotty we’ll appreciate all you do for us thank you 🙏
I was looking around at these, now that the price is low. You can find ones with the 5.7L truck Hemi engine, they don't have 700 hp, but they have enough more horsepower than the V-6s to put a real smile on your face, they sound great and cost $10-$15k depending on year and mileage. I think there are a couple of years that should be avoided (can't remember), but otherwise why not? Not great gas mileage, but not horrible either for what it is. They're kind of an end of era. Over the next 20 or 40 years I'm sure electrics will actually overtake them. None of the V-8s can compete with a Tesla on speed.
I own a red 2021 R/T T/A, 5.7 Hemi V8, 6 speed manual transmission. It was my dream car since i was a kid and by far it was the best auto purchase i made, always puts a smile on my face. It's not the fastest thing on the road (with Hellcats n all) but it's fast enough to have fun. So far i'm at 26k miles and only did regular maintenance, everything works perfect. In terms of fuel mileage, mine is pretty decent, i get around 15-17 MPG in the city and around 20-24 MPG on the highway. I occasionally did launches for fun but i don't drive it hard that often.
I had a 2012 R/T with 225,000 miles on it I wanted to take up to Scotty, and it was totalled by an uninsured driver 2 weeks ago...still ran when he drove it up onto the tow truck....looking at prices and interest rates now, ugh.
The V-6 Dodge Charger ain't bad either, just don't make it look like a Hellcat
I have a new car now, but always come back to hear Scotty talk about stuff, and of course the horse laughs.
I couldn't get a V8 because I live 8000 ft up mass snow! AWD whips around awesome in the snow! Wayyy fast enough, though I miss the 8 sound.Went 102 in a curvy canyon thank God survived almost wiped out never do it again!But she handled like a dream.Mine is an 18 bought in 2019 everything pristine until the BEAR THREW OUR TRASH CAN AROUND DENTED UP MY WHOLE DRIVERS SIDE door and front fender😠 I'm a 57 year old woman that's always loved fast cars.
I have one (V6 Challenger). Nice car. Plenty of power when needed. It's my daily driver and has AWD for winter driving. I also have a Mustang GT... That's definitely a fun car and way more powerful, but the Challenger is way better on gas for going to work every day and still fun driving. And it is surprisingly agile for a big car.
I own a Dodge Challenger and ots my dream car. Nice to see Scotty stop throwing shade on Dodge
0:58 😂
Gotta love Uncke Scotty!
Thank you for your work my good sir!🎉
I had one and it was a dream come true. I sold it after the dream wore off. I bought it with 9k miles and hail damage for 20K in 2017. Drove it till 2019 and had 20k miles on it and sold it for 20k. Of course I fixed the hail damage along the way with bondo and carbon fiber wrap and it looked excellent. I got rid of it because you said I could look forward to electrical problems.
I drove one of the older chargers with the 3.5 v6 and was impressed with the power output of it. Quite a fun car to drive downside they attract the police and you can’t see for crap out of them with the blind spots lol
For 24 years my z28 SS makes my neighbors smile every time I go by.
When I drive the Infiniti they know I’m going to work or for groceries.
Bring back the straight 6!
I had the V6 Charger to use as a daily driver and knowing I was going to put lots of miles on it. Ran perfect, great mileage, peppy engine, and was cheap to buy and own. Finances imporved and I moved up to a Scat Pack for a daily and a Hellcat Redye for weekends. Also have a Zl1 and a Tacoma for hauling stuff. The Scat has 485 HP and gets great mileage on the highway. The Redeye is 800 HP. Not sure what the mileage is but the insurance and personal property taxes are crazy high. If you take your eye off it for a minute it will be stolen. Fast car but sort of a PITA since you can't even park it at a hotel as it will be gone in the AM.
I'm Sitting in the Cheapest Longest Lasting Car Ever Made (And I'm Buying Another One) : 94 Celica
I own a 2018 sxt
It turns heads everywhere I go. Yes,everyone asks if it's a v8. And I surprise the heck out of ''em when I say it's a 6 shooter.
Has enough power to have fun, it's sporty, good on gas and my insurance is low.
With a pedal commander it'll definitely wake up that lil v6.
I enjoy driving it everyday.
No SXT is turning heads, lol.
Just cause you open the throttle a little faster doesn't Mean it's faster 😂😂 and it's a v6 you're just as fast a 2.0 turbo from a Honda prob slower cause they can tune the turbos
@@812MSSdo you really think most people can tell the difference between the models. A challenger is a challenger for common people who like the look of muscle cars
We have a V6 Charger that I love more than most luxury cars I've owned.
@@812MSS
Lol cus u havent seen mine
Staggered tire set up
Runnin 315s in the back
The stance is what does it.
I know you will disagree. But any car with the right stance regardless of engine size will turn heads.
Plus all the ladies it pulls will beg to differ..
Lol they dont no it aint a hemi
They just see the pretty car haha
I just bought one I love it so much. Good enough power. Great gas mileage Handles great and looks awesome 🤩👌🏻
Nice I got a new v6 charger !
Getting 30 mpg on freeway , nice car so far
Love how he had " Ain't nothing but a G Thang " blasting!!😂😂
I must say. Whoever owns that vehicle has been shedding that car apart by listening to Snopp Dog
@@saulg3174lmao I swear I turned it down on him
I’ve got a 2016 Challenger Scat Pack & it’s just too much FUN Scotty !😀
Also I get 23 mph in my 392.
Right, I have one as well. The v6 only gets what 26-28 miles per gallon
Damn on my 392 I’m gettin 9.6 miles lol
@@brandonUwanawich954
You better get that tuned up or just keep your foot out of it once in a while !😀
@@feliciahall2858I just took a Charger SXT on a road trip from Texas to Pennsylvania and got 36 mpg. I took it easy for the most part, so that would probably be the max you can get out of them.
@@feliciahall2858
30 mpg consistently on fairly level ground. If you live in a hilly area all cars mpg drops
ive got a 22 challenger as a rental rn while my poor volkswagen gets her rear serviced. challenger has some noticeable hp
Typically vw story lol
That same Pentastar 3.6 goes in many Jeeps and Caravans.
Is it ticking yet?
You talking about the bad rocker arm problem?
As Scotty said people don't know about cars generally. And they don't know manual lasts longer than automatic. Specially for a muscle car.
I’m right behind you Scotty🎉
Had a 2013 V6 one and other than alternators no issues in 50k miles.
I’m right behind you Scotty
I always listen to Scotty 😂 I have a v6 challenger she’s beautiful still gets lots of love about her she cleans up very well and turns heads
The most affordable car or truck is one that's reliable and gets good fuel mileage. Half the kids that drive can't even handle 700+ 😊😂 horsepower.
Scott, not everyone who has (wants) a V8 will drive erratically, doing burnouts and stuff 😂.
I had one and drove responsibly. I loved the power and speed. I'm back in the market for one! What do you think? 🤪
Sorry Scott 300 hp minivan engine in a muscle car isn’t enough. Same engine as a ramcv minivan work van. At the very least get the 5.7 hemi. Sounds great, pulls hard, and likes upgrades.
The 6 in the minivan and the charger/challenger are not exactly the same.
1:34 How Scotty just goes “and we’ll turn that down.” so calmly it’s hilarious 🤣
I've had a v6 challenger and a scat pack challenger. That v8 gets you a lot more smiles per gallon 😂
I love my 2010 Ford SHO, 365hp.V6, 365hp, best stock muscle car there is.
Nice ride! I always loved the last generation of SHO. True sleeper sedan. I wanted one but figured I would kill myself so I got a Fusion Hybrid instead lol
@@robertgreenhalge1708 Got mine from my 85-year-old mom after she went into the nursing home, was my stepdads dream car, he bought it one year before he died, now it is mine.
Not a lot of people know about the sho.
Scotty says “ and I’m buying one” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. He’s too cheap! Great car !
Scotty I’ve been waiting for this video for years … I getting a V6 🙌🏻
Sorry scotty not many people are gonna agree with this 😂
But I get it. The v6 muscle cars are frowned upon but they are pretty decent if you want a kicky stylish commuter car!
Also, for the enthusiasts here V6 Muscle cars have no “DRIFT TAX!” Get yourself a v6 camaro or mustang and learn how to drift or just slide around for less than 10k!
It's not a muscle car.
@@ramonacevedo356 i get that, but Im still calling them muscle car to keep the term alive. If not then we literally just have the challenger
@@ramonacevedo356You’re right
Even back in the day of the old muscle cars they could be bought with 6 cylinders.
V6 ain't the problem, plastic oil housing on the engine and bad ticking due to valve $#!+... all the 3.6 from that generation fall apart
Is that the same v6 that’s in Jeep grand Cherokee?
I mean I just got a 2023 challenger scat pack for $36,500 with 15 miles on it.
It had hail damage. I replaced the hood and i am happy with it.
It gets 15mpg in town and i can get 28 mpg on the highway with the cruise set to 68
1:32 "and we'll turn that down". Lmao.
Nice video! I daily drive a 2017 dodge challenger T/A 5.7 hemi. That v6 is always gonna get better gas milage, but I aint doing too bad at 22mpg. I drive Austin area to Killeen all the time for my job as a firefighter , lots of highway. I occasionally start up fast, but it does balance out pretty well when it kicks down into 4 cylinder. Picked her up for 24k, got 14k for my Ram truck with 115k miles. If Scotty ever wanted to take a look at it and make a video, I would happily make the drive to come see him.
Snoop Dogg and Scotty together, now you know you in trouble!
Looks like lil waynes car, turn the ignition on & the music start banging
Thank you Scotty, now I'm gonna buy one
Interest in horsepower has surpassed interest in handling.
The full challenger experience is with a V8. (Even if it’s just the 5.7L) You just can’t beat its power and sound!! I’d rather have a V8 with a manual any day!
I have a 21 Challenger Scat Pack, which has the 6.4L & I easily get 20+ mpg on the highway in sport mode with 12" wide tires on all 4 corners. My MPG for daily driving is around 14-15.
Yeah but that V6 will get to the low to mid 30’s mpg on the hwy.
The owner was bumping that old Dr. Dre & Snoop 😎
0:54 You’re right, 306 HP is more than ample for a retired gentleman 👌🏽
Dodge is axing the Challenger production at the end of this year. I thought they would come out with a new gen, but nope. This same body style is 15 years old now.
Almost as ancient as a Tesla!
Another one for the bucket list
Bought my 2012 R/T with the V8 with 36k for just under 20k but that was 3 years ago. Man are you wrong about the V8 though, why buy a muscle car with no muscle? The sound & feel does not even compare... Hemi will probably last longer too if you take care of it. Power to weight ratio is much better and you still get decent fuel mileage with the manual
Scotty Kilmer Friend keep up the great work 😃😃🇺🇸🇺🇸💪💪👍👍👍👍
I get 25 mpg on the highway. The mds works great when you are just cruising.
Favorite video so far just because of the radio turning on
Winter tires will seal the deal with those. Even better than fwd (with winter tires)
Um, Scott, i drive a 2015 Challenger GT Scatpack and on the highway I average 25.5 MPG wthe Shaker HEMI.
This is crazy, I've been watching you for years and lately I've been hearing you mention Rhode Island. I'm from Rhode Island, do you live here now? I don't catch every episode so I must have missed that one.
It’s a nice car and it moves did you see the digital dash skip numbers when accelerating lol
but still rather have the manual
Great video and I was jamming to the snoop dogg 😂
Yeah when I was doing electrical work they gave me a minivan with that engine. Enough power (I guess) for a work van but not for a muscle car. A cvt v6 Nissan maxima would smoke it. Get the awd v6 at least if you’re going to get one, but the 5.7 isn’t bad on gas if you’re not heavy on the foot. Sounds 1,000x better too, and it makes some torque. Like getting a Ferarri with a Prius motor in it.
Surprisingly enough the 3.6L in the Chrysler Pacifica is fast, had one as a rental and raced a tuned 6.0L with it and it walked away from him like he was sitting still. Mind you we were doing about 50 mph and he was in boost already I just floored it and pulled away. Before you say it yes he was racing me he locked eyes with me then went.
i got one All Wheel drive... i love it.
Man, I've been on the fence about getting the v6 or v8, but after watching this, Scotty really sold me on the v8.
im thinking the same ,,ya but these cars for a reason ,that v8 sound
Did Scotty just have a baby? Baby car seat.
Scotty you keep saying your going to buy one but never do.
If I was you I'd buy what I wanted 😂😅.
God bless!
I'm thinking about buying one of these its drastically cheaper than a hellcat or demon you're basically just getting a working & driving modern muscle car for a 10th of the cost plus you can modify as you please to get to where you wanna be you arent starting out with too much like the bigger V8's
Don't be annoying the Arkansas State Troopers with that beast, now.
U made me feel better about my decision Scotty 😅🎉❤
It'll all change when the oil sensor goes out and the oil cooler starts leaking oil! 3.6 sucks!
1970 Doge Dart slant six would be the only MOPAR I would buy.
Well, I guess you won’t be getting a MOPAR then as those are EXTINCT!
That's nice. I have a 14' Charger R/T non- modified, and I don't drive like a maniac myself, I've put 40,000 miles on it over 5 years, and has 100,101 miles with no issues. Only thing about the 3.6 liter engines is that stupid oil filter element. I personally would get an adaptor kit so you could put a regular spin on oil filter on it.
Actually yes a lot of guys are modding these V6’s to 450 hp with superchargers.
If it's a muscle car I'm definitely getting it with the V8 engine Sorry but no 6cy in a muscle car for me !!!
So the Grand National isn't a muscle car ?
@@Jevonechy that’s the only exception but the grand national was supercharged. This isn’t, so no
