      ​@@randywl8925 I haven't heard of them tearing them down so much as relocating them to where cheaper labor is. I think Dodge is jumping the gun if they think they can eliminate ice vehicles, but if they can get comparable horsepower & better fuel economy from a inline 6 w turbos, go for it. Ford has the Barra 6 in Australia that makes awesome horsepower, but doesn't bring it to the state's because "image". I don't see ICE vehicles going away in 12yrs, or 20yrs. The advancements being made in synthetic fuels will replace electric vehicle purchases before then.

      @LETS-DREW-THIS ปีที่แล้ว

      Multiple government's are making it illegal to produce ICE after 2030 - 2035 ish. So until some new tech comes out I don't think we're gonna see that return in our lifetime. Maybe range extenders. Commercial vehicles and such, anything that needs to tow or haul significant weight because range becomes useless with EV when towing.

    100% agree with the comment about electric cars. One thing electric will never replace is the feeling and the sound of a perfectly done heel and toe downshift at the right time in a corner. Sure, they might be faster but they won't be as much fun.

    Sarah, you must get your hands on the 6-speed. I drove one, and the sound is even more amazing, seems to be slightly louder, and burbles even when driving in a parking lot. total blast to drive. 2nd to 3rd gear speed shift drops right in. you will love it. I also love that you keep testing these iconic cars from Mopar.

  • @autospecial1
    @autospecial1 ปีที่แล้ว +35

    I've got a 15 Hellcat Challenger and love it, but you are correct, the 392 cars are better balanced. The 6.2 adds a lot of weight to the front making it understeer when cornered hard. FYI, proper lift (not jacking) point in the front is the subframe. The frame is marked with the triangles to show where to place the lift pads.

      i got the widebody and realized how much of a pain it is! you are dodging some pain besides the money. they look cool, and i like it, but the wheel offset with those special rims means you can basically only get OEM rims for it, and tires are hard to come by too. In Canada, i'm looking at $1300 FOR ONE RIM. ONE. to have a second set for winter tires. not doing it. you are way more flexible for tires and rims with the regular body. enjoy!

    That ZF transmission is the same as in my V8 F-Type - it's brilliant! It adapts to my driving style (lazy shifts if I'm pottering about and red-lines if I'm "pressing on"). It seems to anticipate when I'd shift and does it on the button! You ought to test a full fat F-Type (and I bet you can say "Jaguar" properly!). Keep up the great work.

    Hey Sarah, 103.1 is a classic rock station in the Detroit area. Sad to see these go to be honest not the biggest Dodge fan but if I were to buy one, it would definitely be a challenger manual of course. I live a stones throw from Chrysler headquarters in Auburn Hills which is situated at the intersection of two major expressways so every time there’s a new variant hellcat, redeye, scat pack, etc. The Dodge boys ( executives at Chrysler )or whoever are ripping these things up and down the off ramps to those highways like a road course it’s really something to hear and see. I’m gonna read missed that. Have a great one as always.🐧🐧🐧👍

    I owned a 70 Challenger in 79 as a teenager. I swear it was a thousand pounds lighter than the current one. I understand the quality and the build of the newer edition is much better, I just don’t understand why they have to weigh so much

    My dad's 69 Mach 1 had the hood pins with cables. Yes they look cool but damage the paint over time. Great place for some 3M protection where the cables rub. Protects the paint, you keep the cool look and easy to change when the 3M tape starts to look crappy.

    There's apparently a goodly number of FM stations broadcasting on 103.9, from a rock station in Berdu, to a gospel station somewhere, and a talk/rock station on Long Island. Maine may be in that list. Nice car. Where's the trailer hitch?

    I love a Challenger but the extra displacement and only 30bhp over a 5.0 Mustang is barely worth it when I get 18mpg city and 30 hwy. Where does all that extra power go ?
    Is that highway mpg even correct ?

    The cables Mopar originally used on its hood pins were cables meant to hold the glove box from flopping open too far. Ford had some neater twist pins, sort of like Dzus fasteners for holding down their shaker hoods.
