he turned off his camera, slapped his son and went threw the the river, I know you did.
ltwargssf R he deserves all of it
Probably said "You're a pussy just like your Dad""
you know we are old... when our kids stop us to do somthing silly or fun lol
Jose That's why dads need to drive fun cars alone 😆
Dodge hellcat: The only boat that doesn't float.
dump the clutch 454 and the Generic Motor Crap 454, the only boat anchor engine
dump the clutch 454 lol this was epic
I mean it's a boat but it's still the fastest🤔🤷🏻♂️
Arne Hurnik they made the chassis to look and feel like a muscle car first performance car later they just want them to go fast in a straight line if you buy one expecting it to be good on a trw ch first of all your an idiot second your missing the point and third no one wants the challenger ti be a tiny sports car that goes on a track
Kristopher Klassen Let me guess, you're a "mopar or no car" kinda guy? Hate to tell you but the glory days of mopar are gone and all you can get now is an overpriced and oversized fiat.
This is what the Hellcat should have been all along. That new dark red looks perfect on it too.
But it isn't plum crazy. Dodge is probably the best when it comes to colors.
Tommy chastising you is absolutely priceless! Please keep that clip and use it again in the future; outtakes or otherwise.
LMAO x 10 😂
I always wonder when you see on the news people that get themselves into bad situations that need assistance and you wonder what where they thinking? This provides a really good example of the mindset of those individuals.
Tommy needs to chill
I understand what he is saying. He made good points of not being their car and all but he did sound a bit wimpy.
Tommy has no chill. You take that water at 2mph and minimize any splashing and there would be zero issues.
I'd rather push through it a little harder because you'll push the water out of the way... going slow the bigger the possibility that it'll come through the door seals.
Don't do it. Turn around. Go back. Unless you have a Jeep and even then move slowly. A few drops of water is all it takes to destroy your car.
Toyota owners, Toyotas hate, hate water. Many many Toyotas suck in air BELOW the wheel line. Don't do it. Not worth it. Most manufacturers will NOT COVER hydrolock under warranty. Even Jeep looks at Jeeps on a case by case bases.
fatboy19831 actually they are most salvageable; along with Hondas. Flush and replace fluids and you're good.
What a wonderful time to be alive! 🤗
Scott Paulson too bad middle class is dying off
Passenger and driver arguing back and forth about doing something stupid, and potentially vastly entertaining... "Do it!" "We're not going to do it!" Mirrors my own life very closely lol
Back in the eighties my friend had an '82 0r '84 Toyota 4x4 pickup truck. We were off roading and came to a spot where there was a stretch of about a hundred feet of deep water, looked to be around 3 to 4 feet deep. He asked me if he should go for it and I said," I wouldn't if I were you". He went anyway, and the water was up to the windows . He had 34 inch tires on the thing and it was coming over the hood but we made it. It was brand new and he gave no shits. Vivid memory.
Man I’m glad I found this video! I had an appointment yesterday at my Dodge dealer to finalize the paperwork on my Demon but cancelled it after watching this. My sales guy started crying on the phone. When he asked why, I sent him this video. Thanks!
+grayboo212 So how much over sticker were you paying for the Demon? 😉
$1000 below invoice plus my green slip from Chrysler! If you go to Ebay right now, there are 3 people selling their “allocation” for this car. 1 guy claims he received 2 allocations and is using one for himself and selling the other. Then in another auction it appears it’s the same guy (brand new Ebay account as of a few days ago and the auction format is nearly identical as the first one I mentioned) claiming he received 3 allocations and is keeping one and selling the others. The auction price is just to ensure you get to order the car. You still will need to pay for the car itself (supposedly at MSRP).
Lmaoooo yall drilling Tommy and it's funny asf... 😂 Nice Channel dad.
Dreams money can buy
Two things i noticed about the new widebody hellcat: New spoiler (doesn't have the indent of the regular challenger spoilers), and new wheels which look amazing!
Sorry i missed you driving around my stomping grounds. Think i drove my truck through that same puddle that day. Dont worry tommy that spot is better than i used to be
Here in Arizona we have the "Stupid Motorist Law" for those who drown their cars in flooded areas.....but it does get you the views.
Erich is a badass. Has raced everything from Neon ACRs to 300 SRT8s to Hellcats. Gear-head engineer.
I think I said it before but I'll say it again. Tommy was a great addition, great father and son duo!
Wow I wished we had some of that rain here in So Cali. What a beautiful sight to see. Its hot and dry out here in the IE.
Will rain get into the car from hood heat extractors and functional hood scoop; how is it channeled away from the engine?
I'd have to agree with Tommy on this one Roman. If it was yours, I'd say do what you want but remember what happened to jalopnink, banned!
Living in Indy - I know exactly when you were here - it rained like crazy most of the day. Too bad!
I have a Hellcat, getting wider rubber on the rear was easy on a car without those garish flares. I replaced the wheels and was able to get 275's on the front and 315's out back. Stock it made 687 hp, add 15% for the drive train and it's making est. 787 hp at the crank. That Demon is making a lot more than 850 hp on pump gas.
even if dodge demon sinks like titanic and everyone is laughing.....i still like it.
Great video! Roman makes for great content :D
You must have been in Indianapolis the day we received a foot of rain in spots. Had to detour a few times for high water that day myself
you can get a used hellcat right now for under 55k but you never know what you're really getting.
Tommy is right. You don't drive an 80K car through that much water when it isn't yours. You want to take a risk with your own car go ahead!!
I tend to agree with Tommy. Cats don't like water didn't you know that haha.
Will the older 2015-2017 models be getting the update go get that new look on the screen?
you cant hate a v8 car, that always sounds amazing
Y'all were already in the speed boat
I like the intro of the conversation go threw it get some momentum and coast three
Hm. The "keyboard warriors" just spouting off. *REALITY* is the Hellcat is just fine, wide or narrow. Quality & performance are fine. BMW? They've their share of problems. Google "BMW catches fire", or "BMW driveshaft failure". 🤔 Hellcat chassis based on Mercedes E-class. Even the supercharger pulley has "Germany" on it.🤔 Hellcat ZF 8 speed same as BMW 7 series.🤔 Dodge=Winner!😉
I know I'm supposed to be paying attention to the car, but man... that infotainment system looks great.
I'm glad he listened. That water would have probably came inside. I mean it does have the headlight air intake but I dunno.
Here when I heard the word wide-body I thought this was a Weight Watcher video. In all seriousness how many will be made and what's the starting sticker price?
So when is the Scat Pack getting flares? Looks soooo much better they should just apply it to every model including the V6s.
he has good reason to worry. The hellcat has air open air intakes at headlight level. pretty good reason not to tank it in a puddle
The son earns my respect... I like responsible people.
Ramzi Khazen he'd probably been ok but I agree with you.
LMAOOOOO yo son had me dying
@5:04 is it me or do u guys see the body frame is off right where the two panels suppose to meet above the reflector!??
Tommy's definitely got a point! I wouldn't do it either... Even if it was mine
Wow!!! sure glad I saw this...I'm going to scale back to one of these...or just keep driving my '97 Subaru S/W...
pull a wheelie and go through it
Mr EOS its not a demon😕
Lels Derp no... It's not
Lels Derp no its not
Mr EOS no, it's not lol.
you guys need to chill it's Vin Diesel style xD
On a normal hemi in like a 300c you would hydrolock it because the air intake is low with the factory air box. Anything more than a foot of water and you are taking a big risk once you start plowing through that water and it builds up in height. You shoulda done it!!! Haha
The TFL crew calls it the Hellcat or the Demon so much (not complaining), I feel like someone who's new to cars and/or this channel would never know its actual name is the Challenger, and that the names we hear are just trims.
Drive through it backwards. Did it all the time in my Sentra. Just don't stop.
Is he using the black or red key?
Tommy is right this time.
I'm so glad people say the demon is too heavy. That just give me a better chance of getting one
Looking at the other cars, w/ how much water was being pushed and the Hellcat having induction at what would be the inner headlight location it was wise not to attempt it.
ive gone through a bit deeper than that in a less powerful challenger. not much problem just dont stop.
I would have been super angry that I couldn't go on the track because of the rain.
Looks very nice with the wide body. Maybe they will put a Viper engine in it next!
Hall monitor son said ankle high dude .
this is good information and for the more mature crowd
I really like those wheels on the widebody hellcat
I was planning to get one at the end of this month
Tommy Saw Jaws one to many times this summer on Showtime and now deathly afraid of Great White Sharks!!! He thought there was a 35 ft Great White In That Water!!! 😁😂😄😂👊👻🎃🐈😅😇
Hopefully that argument with the nerd was scripted.
Alright guys, so where is the Regal GS Coverage, I'm waiting for that!
Didn't it rain last time they launched the hellcat?
I don't understand why FCA does not sell Dodge in Italy, great muscle cars.
67claudius you don't know how taxes work here in Europe and how much the fuel costs
Yet here they sell several sports cars.
Dodge Challenger in the US costs $ 35,000, or € 30,000 in Italy.
Formerly Dodge could only sell in a couple countries and were a US brand. I think only North and South America, and the United Arab Emirates. I think they expanded a bit due to the Fiat merger and can sell in most countries not apart of the European Union with left hand drive.
67claudius dude.... i lived in vincenza....muscle care are sold there
oh gosh darn it! I was just about to walk out my door to a dodge dealership and purchase a 2017 dodge demon srt!!
Whether Tommy was right or not doesn't matter... he sounded really whiney and needs to chill out. Roman was right, if a dang Cruze made it then y'all could have too! Also, that wasn't something that I, personally, would have kept in the final video...
TFLC your son is wiser beyond his years! Glad you listened to your son otherwise you might have inadvertently bought a Hellcat! LOL adults listening to the kids!
Dodge should have added an extra inch to the flares in the back and ran a 315 or bigger it would have gave the car more of exotic and muscle look at the same time
the fender flares dont slow the car down! its the tires...its all about rolling resistance...the flares might be 10 percent of the equation at best which leave less than half of a mile per hour
0:51 “This is asinine” 💀💀
when does it start
I love the dad son banter here. I probably would have gone through.
But tommys right. 70k and not yours. Turn around.
Go fast enough and it should hydroplane right across that little puddle..
Psychics Tommy
"Alright Tommy, you're right I'll turn around.... *FLOOR IT* "
What a beautiful machine! Love it!
Sir I want this car in india how much cost can you say me
that looks like a Demon badge on the front quarter panel.
Oh yeah, THIS is the one thing that will stop me from buying a Demon. Not the nearly $100k pricey tag.
Priceless
That's bumper F-ing high! Lol
That little puddle would be fine to cross as long as you go nice and slow. No large wakes.
The car in this video is not a Demon. It is in fact a Hellcat Widebody. Basically same look as the Demon, minus the motor and drag radials.
*Here at the Indy 500 home of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.....*
Bruh
If you spend 2 or 3 extra grand, couldn't you tune the hellcat into the demon?
Just when we want to test if the Hell Cat can go through ankle deep water he stopped it so now we never know.
Lol when dodge sees this, they’ll never want to give you a car for review again
Tommy is actually RIGHT about not drinking into that water
I agree, dont hurt the hellcat! Lol
Oh yes I was collecting all my coins I put into jars to head to the dealership and get me a demon, saw this vid I had to pause for a quick 10min to watch it
The boat I mean challenger finally in its natural habitat
Manual widebody hellcat, perfect setup
I’m glad they changed up the hellcat a little bit, and even more happy about the demon. That just means you’ll be able to go buy a 15 hellcat with lower miles on it for cheap. It’s still a dodge which means depreciation at its finest !
It's the 20th. You said you would upload the video of the Demon vs Tesla/Subaru. I want to see a 1000 HP Subaru race a 840 HP Demon.
I just took possession of my Florida based Demon on Friday. I paid a whopping $93,768,98 for it with zero miles.
I had my Hellcat Challenger for almost a year. Purchased it for $75,998,98 including an extra set of four wheels and tires with locks in addition to one of the best audio systems on Earth.
Just today I spoke with Kelly Blue Book rep, My Hellcat is now worth.......wait for it.......$51, 258,75 AND my brand new, yet to be unwrapped (still waiting for the Demon Crate) is currently worth.......just for taking delivery by having it towed on a flat bed to my residence. Wait for it.......$72, 5575.00 with the crate not commanding ANY price as it is considered accessories which are basically worthless.
Next year the Hellcat will take another $12,000 depreciation. The Hellcat I drive nearly daily and it currently has 13, 450 miles on its odometer.
I was told the Hellcat would most certainly take a depreciation hit BUT the Demon would only gain at least $10,000. with zero miles and each year it is maintained but not driven Only the first year would see depreciation while the second year will begin recovery until it slighty passes the purchase price in under five years.
Now my 2016 Audi R8 V10 Plus cost $229,345.98 brand new with seven miles on the odometer. It has currently 18,000 miles due to two trips from NYC to Miami where it is being stored for the summer. The other cars in my collection all went down on two semis and right into my underground garage with room for 24 cars in total......21 of those stalls are now full as Miami Beach is now my permanent residence. It cost me $44,000. to have them hauled down in secure airtight trailers to be stored in my recently renovated top to bottom garage space at the cost of $250,000. for the building and another $87,950. for the eight foot high three foot thick solid impenetrable concrete fence and two stage electric gate that opens on demand by a unit fitted under the front bumper of each car. These openers are also GPS units which will work up to 500 miles in the ocean should someone somehow take them out of my 12 security camera garage. On the outside of the garage and the concrete fence.. I have installed 56 - 8 ft tall hedges which will fill out in two years time to totally block all concrete leaving only a metal lined gate exposed that matches the facade of my home. There are also 150 individual vines that will totally attach to every inch of the concrete wall eventually forming huge trunks supporting the year round foliage, The architect and landscape architect have designed a totally invisible garage, wall and gate with four break proof glass skylights that provide natual light for the space. The garage designed will install solar panels which will slide over the skylights hiding them from view as well.
In all I have spent well over $28 million dollars on everything car related from purchase prices, theft deterrent systems in each vehicle as well as the new storage facility.
Was it all worth it I continue to ask myself? The last car of my collection, the second Demon which will be driven every dry weekend in Miami and SO FL, will arrive in early August as I paid close to $125,000 for it as one of the very last vehicles to be sold at a tremendous markup by a Dodge Dealership marketed as being the last Demon produced.
To you, would this all be worth the money I spent on assembling the collection in addition to the storage and transportation as well as two full time well known super car mechanics and one detailer who will all live in the 3 bdrm. 3 bath apartment attached to the house who specialize in full on build outs of any high perfomrance car being produced and driven today; They signed three year contracts with me with salaries of $150,00.00 each for the mechanics as well as $80,000.00 for the full time detailer vehicle PA who will be responsible for keeping all cars dust free and spotless in all areas of the cars. My house help will maintain the apartment housing the three men. Each year they will receive a bonus in adiition to a 4% cost of living pay increase. All seem to be very happy with our arrangement so we wil go from here to see how lnog my car family is taken care of.
Cost being no factor, would you do all of this for the worlds most desired cars? They actually are a part of my family and I will forever care for them at any costl
Crazy or sane....YOU decide
Can decide if this is real or not! Wow man that’s nuts!
That moment when the challenger is in its natural habitat in the water
Cats don't like water
8:05 is that manual transmission ?
lmao....tommy. it's ankle Fing high dad!!!
Just seeing someone talking about taking a hellcat to that situation was painful...
They should have made the hydraulic steering an option. Makes me think the regular Hellcat will be the better daily driver. Nothing worse than not getting any feel of the road when cornering and normal handling of various roads.
why would you drive 305s on the road? Drag tires on wet weather is a no no
