ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 19 เม.ย. 2020
- Each of Detroit’s Big Three offers up a two-door four-seater with the sort of power even the wildest hot-rodders of the wonder years couldn’t have dreamt of: the 2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 (760 hp), the Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 (650 hp), and Dodge Challenger Hellcat Redeye Widebody (797hp).
We took the 2,207-horsepower trio to the American West to travel 1,400 miles on wide open, empty roads.

The Challenger is still a Muscle car but the Camaro and Mustang are sports cars nowadays in my book.
redd7188 sports cars with muscle car power
@@michaelorozco8809 exactly nothing different all V8 GT-R are the real sports cars
J M you’re wrong. The gen6 ZL1 is most definitely a pure Sports Car
Camaro zl1 all the way and challenger, mustang people always crash ito crowds lol 😂
Camaro zl1 is a muscle car too
The challenger is just timeless and endlessly beautiful.
Well good thing other muscle cars exist for you to chose from 👍.
America’s Sports Car thank you for that information America’s Sports Car , that was very valuable.
I like the exterior of the challenger, but the interior is too basic for me :,(
@@marcos516712341 you can change it if you have the money to do so
J M I’m looking to buy one of these in two years. Cheapest option is ZL1 so will probably opt for that but you’re right. Everything can be upgraded aftermarket
The GT500 is by far one of the most awesome cars ever. You have to see it in person to understand. Sounds the best, drives the best. The features and options are amazing. God bless America for this car.
And isn't worth over 180 grand Canadian that's for sure. Could buy two of the others for that price.
@@sa3ood16 camaro is faster off the dig
Sound is subjective and can be altered via cam in both challenger and Camaro to which sound much better than any mustang in my opinion 5.2. Also the man has a point both challenger and Camaro will out 60 ft and 1/8 the mustang having more weight in the challengers case or having less power in the Camaros case due to the mustangs 4 valve capped on cubes reliant on high revs to get power while 2 valve designs are the opposite. Of course these issues can be corrected with after market modification however the gt500 is the newest and was encrypted especially for the trans tuning and tcm which I believe was figured out this year because the DCT launches like shit and it’s relatively new.
@@joshreynolds729 I agree
@@joshreynolds729 You think it sounds better than a GT350???
Can’t people read? It’s a “ROAD TRIP” if you wanted to watch these cars race and go crazy then go to another video. This was honestly a nice peaceful video where they got a chance to cruise around and talk about these beasts.
That was a nice and peaceful road trip; except for the multiple minutes of back and forth buddy-banter-bull-shite. That started gettin' old in about 5. Not at all old Top Gear or new Grand Tour worthy at this point. Potentially new Top Gear worthy, maybe.
''canyons will no longer echo with the roar of their engines'' my God this made me cry
The other part that made me tear up is when the guy said
"We are the dinosaurs, wondering what that bright light in the sky is."
Confirming my fear that Electric cars are taking over, and these Big Three Muscle cars may be the last of what we see for this decade.😭
yep made me tear up too wish I lived close to the canyons but I don't
@@steven_miles5545 yep I hate electric
I mean elecrtics are insanely powerful and deliver instant torque but they lack that roughness and thunder-like sound that shakes the ground
@@steven_miles5545 electric cars are never going to take over
Dodge Charger; "I'll see y'all when you get back I guess." ;o)
I'll take the ZL1
ill take the GT 500
I'll take the hellcat
I’ll take the gt500
man i'd give up my good nut for a zl1 such an incredible car
Lml
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I wouldn't my seeds are worth more than all those cars combined
@@realone2321 L
gt500 is far superior
Love the looks of the ZL1
The end of high horsepower muscle cars has been proclaimed since I started driving in the 80's. They've only gotten more power and more better.
Unfortunately i was around during the SAVE THE PLANET gas crunch, and it took some yrs. before these cars came back. Like my car 88 Mustang at that time it was one of the fastest out there 225 hp. And that was fast in 88..lol now 700+ We live in good times for cars right now.🇺🇸 MURICA!
Thats why they're flying off dealerships right? Thats why Ford and Chevy are making more muscle cars and giving the "Green movement" the finger... No wait 🤣 unless you can make more dead dinosaurs to supplement the gas reserves that are "running on fumes" those things are living on borrowed time. Ford and Chevy are shifting cause they know if they dont... They would end up in Pontiac City.
Its all about power and that V8 noise... The kind of thinking that killed Detroit. 🤣
@@dbcooper8607 You could have said something we haven't been hearing since the 80's. They are making high powered electric vehicles. If we'd had sub 2sec 0-60 electric engines in the 80's I have bought 1 of those too.
@@LouieSmithSenior Like you've heard about Lithium ion batteries for electric cars in the 80s dumdum. Even EV cars in the 90s use a different type of battery. We've come a long way since the 80's, have you had your glass of Ensure today Sir? Still using the superfluous 0-60 dumb-speed criteria like youre actually racing cars, but just to humor the gas yokels - Tesla Model S P100D 0-60 in 2.3 Seconds. Even the GT500 takes more than 3 and a half seconds. I'm sure they're gonna go back to their insipid argument that "Well.. gee... Uhmm it doesnt have that mustang sound duh uhhhm"
Three Great American Muscle Cars, wasted on a boring long road trip. No Drag Races, No Driver switch comparison. The trio's chemistry is uninteresting.
I thought it was interesting how 3 of the most interesting cars in a video could put me to sleep.
I hate people that can't understand what they read, this video isn't meant to have Spirited Driving.
The words "Road Trip" is literally in the title of the video, if you want to see "some spirited driving" go watch a different video.
There are plenty of other videos of people racing these Amazing cars, but people just had to choose a video that literally has in the title "Road Trip" and start judging a video for something it's not.
I for one didn't mind this video it's calm, it's peaceful, watching these amazing cars drive normal through the beautiful scenery was a nice welcome change of pace.
Like I said you want to watch High Octane Performance Racing, there are plenty of other videos on TH-cam for that.
But don't hate on the video for something that it is not meant to be.
Don't dislike the video for what it isn't and like it for what it is.
For road trips....nothing beats the old school comfort feeling on the Challenger man !
I like the interior of a challenger, its spacious! Too bad the exterior looke like a boat.
The guy driving the challenger looks like he’ll be asking you’re 3rd grade kids if they want candy
Andrew Baca whats wrong with candy
Ohhhhhhh lol
what kind of candy?
@@ctgilcrest KIT KAT
This channel just popped up on my TH-cam suggestions as I watching the zr1 review from everyday driver again for the 100th time glad it did I subscribed and clicked the bell and thumbs up love the channel
If you're trying to emulate the old Top Gear or the new Grand Tour, you are in the ball park but that was at least 15 minutes toooo much yap. Refine and minimize the banter and you'll be getting closer.
Halfway through the video, I thought the exact same thing.
I enjoyed it but top gear ..... not really
I’ll be a Mustang guy until I die but I really love the Charger for the practicality. Challenger is really great as well.
Ford and GM worked together to make the 10 speed transmission. They nailed it. Whish they would come together to make a complete Special Edition car. Could you imagine?
I enjoyed a bucket of crawfish to this.. overall rating for the video: 10/10. Thank you for the beautifully crafted video. This is a wholesome video
I love the design of the Ford Mustang GT 500 and the Dodge Challenger hellcat but I don't like the fender flares on the Dodge Challenger.The Camaro is amazing on the road course.
Just would like to thank u guy's for the road trip. I like the challenger better because I'm 6'3 & I fit comfortably in it 🚘
Stop leaving out the charger, that is a muscle car as well. Probably the most iconic from the late 60’s
technically the charger is the only muscle car that is left and still exists right now... these cars (mustang, camaro, challenger) are pony cars!...
The two-door Charger is iconic and always will be. The four-door Charger is an entry-level muscle car for rookies/beginners and explains why you’ll see more of them than the Redeyes/Demons. The latter cars are for actual driving, street or track: hence the “SRT”.
I don’t think these cars will leave, with advancements in tech they can get more eco friendly and still put out insane numbers without being electric
Decent video until the Climate Change lecture at the end. I guess mining lithium and coltan are so much better for the earth and human rights.
Yeah, their snowflake definitely shined through there.
more pollution is made creating electric cars and lithium isnt a renewable resource and mining lithium is bad for water so elon musk isnt a savoir of the eviroment
@@garyjohnson6858 yeah, oil fields are so much better. Doesn't hurt the environment at all and is such a massive renewable resource.
obviously.
All that beautiful scenery wont be the same with endless charging stations
It’s all about what you love to drive. I got a 17 Mustang GT Premium but I like Camaros and Challengers/Chargers as well. Ultimately, I don’t recommend none of them for long road trips. I usually drive my Camry for those.
Charger, Camry same thing
As a former owner of a Scat Pack Charger and Mustang GT, I can say without any question, the Dodge is just special. Nothing like them. No disrepect to the Camaro or Mustang.
Just hold in the the 2 paddles in the GT500 and it drops to optimal gear. And if you don’t get the Recaro seats you can get heated and cooled seats for cheaper.
You mean hold the left paddle and it drops to lowest allowable gear. Holding both paddles holds the transmission in neutral allowing you to rev the engine
ZL1 ALL DAY! NO QUESTION!
Then I guess you’re the slowest of the crew
@@madyx992except he’s not😂
This was great work guys. Subscribing now.
I would be happy to own any of these three cars. I only used to lust after foreign cars when I was younger. Now all I want is a high performance American car!
Honestly with hybrid systems and camless technology the V8 Muscle can go from getting 25-30mpg to 500+HP in a button press. We just have to invest in the tech.
1. Camaro
2. Mustang
3. Challenger
American before foreigners
the Challenger isn't exactly American...based off an old Benz platform, made in Canada by an Italian parent company.
www.allpar.com/cars/lx/index.html
That's why is in third place
Dodge Challenger is truly the best looking one. Also most comfortable
Your opinion
This is definitely on my bucket list
The gt500 is a master piece 😍 the best in my book
Of the three cars, the only driver grinning from ear to ear while driving their car was the Challenger Hellcat Redeye. I’d say it’s the best of the three cars.
Mostly interesting vid. But, I could have done without the proselytizing part about "climate change" at the end, and blaming these cars for it.
Yes, cause in your head the death of Detroit never happened. Unfortunately even Ford and Chevy dont share your beliefs... They cant, or its Pontiac City for two.
You should have used the ZL1 10 speed transmission for a more accurate comparison.
Okay cool review but did anyone notice that donkey has 5 legs
and now I can't unsee it, thanks
I was waiting for someone to say something. Talk about looking a gift horse in the mouth. Or should I say looking a donkey in the groin.
@11:23 for those that are curious lol
'The west is awful big' lol I don't think that was a coincidence.
Natural when you are face to face with a red Camaro ZL1.
Good vid. Lots of bench racing. I'm stuck actually trying to decide which car in a time where dealers are price gouging.
It now also comes down to dealer service and response.
Lol dodge all quiet in the back. Chevy all day!🔥
Lol remember when all the GM employees went on strike and stopped building your brand the line was real quite
I hate brand loyal car guys, these companies literally don’t give a shit about you so why should you only be a fan of one specific brand?
Chevy zl1 all day
GoPackGo literally. I comment on a video and just cause I have a mustang in my profile pic, I get at least one Chevy or Honda guy just going off and insulting me. Even when it has 0 relation to my comment or video
Tadan Dodd I know it’s ridiculous, people get legitimately pissed off about what kind of car you like, it’s your money who cares?
Trying too hard to be like another three guys that do car reviews. Missed it by that much!
Fun video, ill be keeping my 13 gt500 for the rest of my life. Ty, lol.
The zl1 and money left over to smoke the other two easily.
Haha...Yep!
The ZL1 is a track weapon! And a straight line beast too ! Check it's time at the nurburge or laguna seca!
GT500 is the best
Until a GT-R or Jeep trackhawk kills it tbh
J M stock for stock? I don’t think so
J M yea if they’re stock no way bud
GT 500 is just so beautiful can't take my eyes off 😍
the greatest takeaway I have from the this is the road trip map 1:23 into video.
Imho, maybe this is their peak design for whole line up
The maro has always been my favorite of all time 😍how bout yall what's yall favorite car of all
Best show EVER !!!
The ZL1 tops out at 198mph, and the gt500 is limited to 180mph
The gt500 is faster. top speed got nothing to do with that
Video summary: we drove these cars for 1500 miles and then lectured everyone on climate control.
For a long drive I’d have to go with the Charger/Challenger. From experience yes the ZL1 has magna ride but it’s still noticeably stiffer than those. Gt500 is about in between
challengers design is mind-blowing
Next time drive to Houston and have you a nice piece of humble pie.
The charger swinging the air rn
This reminds me Top Gear USA.
Guys Im grinding for a Nice challenger rn as we speak, Pray for me hopefully i get my dream car. I wish u guys look out here in the world keep ur passion💯
You hate people sooooo....no. 😅
Shout out to the mtg shirt hes wearing! "I'd tap that" lol
That ending was intense.
Ok his numbers come to an average of 5 mpg per car. I have a ZL1 and I call bs
The gt500 has stomped that redeyes ass on the strip stock for stock. The gt500 is absolutely faster top end and the gt500 is the best lookin💯
All 3 great cars in their own right and their own history! But for me Dodge is where my money will go to! #797Hp 😍
797 Hp does not mean it’s fast when it weighs as much as it doee
GT500 can be optioned with the upscale package for sound system and less plastic on the dashboard and the heated and cooled Seats’s B&O sound system with woofers
Challenger is the only muscle car now. Mustang and Camaro look like sport cars now. Sure the challenger is slower but it’s design is better
Always a dream of challenger
Challenger has always been the best road trip car of the modern era.
Ford why did you have to go the Ram route with the hockey puck shifter?
All I see is 2 sports cars and ONE muscle car.
Even though Im a proud owner of a mustang currently on jack stands fixing somw broken ac stuff id gladly take a ss or a zl1
this is reminiscent of a Top Gear moment.
Camaro zl1 is the muscle cars
I love it.
The gt500 is the fastest out of the 3 and I would honestly take that over anything
Bro it’s tough because the zl1 looks so much nicer than the gt500. The gt500 still looks far better than the hellcat and looks es remedy agressive. But the zl1 is the most agressive car I’ve seen in my life
Errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr not with that limiter it ain't the fastest lmfao. ZL1 190+, not limit to 180 something.
@@shelbyhaiketic4212nope gt500 looks way better than both plus none asked for your dumbass opinion
I hit the like button in the beginning and then unliked it when climate change was brought up 🙄 this was supposed to be a car review.
Idk where you saw that it was supposed to be a car review. I thought it said road trip.
I’d have either but I’ll go with the camaro if I could chose one
I've got a 2019 gt for my channel. But in all honesty I would go for the hellcat if it wasn't priced so much higher. And now the gt500 is way up there as well.
How much does a full option hellcat (not redeye) cost?
@@NLamki2002 up here the loaded 392 was around 65k Canadian before taxes and fees. Then the hellcats around 80. Redeye widebody I was looking at was 105 and I haven't checked what the new redeyes are worth in a while. I ended up paying 58 for my mustang after everything so it was quite a difference
@@CanadianCruisin 58k for mustang gt?
@@trey1215 yeah 58k Canadian
The front end of the ZL1 is still the same because I’m guessing they didn’t want to ruin the front end like They did with the SS
Anyone else see that donkey poppin' a huge chubby as those pony cars drove by!? 😁
Mustang is such a cool car!
Looks, power, handling Camaro, power Challenger, killing or getting killed during burnouts Mustang
Hell cat best for long drives not track but actual cross state trips like this best seats moon roof the 17 speakers and subwoofers but GT500 is a close second
I must say that I lean towards the challenger as the best looking car of the bunch. And I own a 2020 GT500. All 3 cars are iconic in their own rights. The reviews seem to be pretty biased towards the Shelby for sure.
Heeell nah shelby the best looking
@@frankj9270exactly the shelby is the best looking
The donuts in the gravel were very traumatic for me I may have nightmares over that
I wanna do this in my ZL!, after all my bf and his friend has the Hellcat and the Mustang. My ZL1 is a convertible though
When if comes to donuts in dirt- these three are no better than a 49 VW beetle.
Yea, I’m not sure I would risk gravels and rocks flying in a 100,000 dollar car.. but i guess if you can afford the car, it doesn’t matter.
The ending was so good, loved the concept of this video, so raw just a couple of bro’s driving their muscle cars through the desert
3 goofs nuff said.
Hellcat for me. 👌😍
Guy driving a camaro talking about cheap interior Haha over all GT500 is best by far but I'd take the Hellcat for sure. I took my like back because of the bs on climate change!
Roger Wolfe I would have to say they’re all even in terms of interior quality but who cares
The mustang and camaro are cheaper feeling then the Challenger to me. I do like the steering wheel in the camaro though
Roger Wolfe can’t go wrong with a flat bottom
Roger Wolfe yes the climate change spiel was stupid. I don’t think the muscle car era is ending anytime soon. And if it does, I’m sure as hell not buying an electric car
So what the charger not considered a muscle car
7:03 is it handbrake signal on dashboard ON?
I’m pretty sure In GMs that light will come on if the traction control and stability control are turned off. And if you look at the rpm side you can see traction is off. I could be wrong though.
Why not have an auto zl1. I hate seeing reviews with the 6 speed against autos when both are offered.
This is the first video that I've seen from this channel. The guy in the GT500 is cringy.
Why do chanels keep putting the zl1 instead of a z06?
GT500 has a heated wheel lol got go to menu in climate and it’s a icon on the touch screen with 3 lines takes u to another screen and has a button for it pretty bad set up to get too
They managed to bore people talking about muscle cars. Cured my insomnia.
THE GT500 is a crossplane crank, while the gt350 engine is a flatplane crank, the gt350 is able to rev really high while the gt500 engine isnt able to. They are same amount of liters in both engines but arent the same engine.
Bro why you gotta get me emotional 😅😂💔
No means for all HP without a perfect terrain to deliver them down to the wheel, i am talking about the Dodge
That challenger is so much better looking...
