    Sorry we are late getting this video up! Lori and I are on the road at media drive events this week and the hotel we are at currently has super slow wifi! Thank you so much for understanding and taking the time to watch. We really can't do this without you. Let Dodge know in the comments section how you feel about this Demon 170 and if you are happy with the electrification direction they are going in for next year. They will be reading these comments!

    In 1970 my biology teacher bought a new first year introduced Challenger, blue in colour with a white convertible top. I’ll never forget the day he drove it into the school yard. He got the 383 engine, not the 426 HEMI engine as that was a few hundred $ more. A lot more those days. I was hooked on the Challenger from that day. 53 years later Dodge does not fail to amaze me with this 2023 Demon Challenger !

      The dealerships will literally frontrun the future appreciation of this car and use its rarity to justify doing so. Anyone buying any flagship in hopes of flipping it in the future for decent profit is going to be sitting on them for a long time. With the way things are going in the US I wouldn't at all be surprised if this car is no longer road legal in the future. Clearly they are trying to put ICE vehicles in a chokehold and I can definitely see regulations that would keep this car from being legally registered because of how much fuel it consumes. They could also impose heavy taxes on fuel in the future which would essentially make this car too expensive to recreationally drive.
      Stellantis took a really poor approach in getting the 2023 flagships into enthusiasts hands and the only people who will benefit from it are dealerships who have limited allocations that are able to completely gouge the consumer for ridiculous markups.
      I'm sitting on the sidelines in anticipation for when this market flips over. Lots of people with 1k+ car payments that are underwater due to egregious markups. I personally don't think this climate is sustainable. Fingers crossed that there will be huge saturation in the secondary market in a few years and banks or dealerships are begging people to buy their diluted inventory at a more realistic price point🤞

They too are able to keep with EVs and in this case, absolutely destroy them. This is one of those cars I would love to park this in my garage.

    Just so weird to think about how this is it. Will be strange 5,10,15… years down the road to see what becomes of the vehicle world. Seems we’re getting some some “last call” models from different automakers. The new Z, Manual Supra, the dodge lineup.

      @@rrf6747 I think sales on EVs will keep going up and up, especially if they get more affordable options (even though affordable is a lost word these days). They are being pushed so hard, and most automakers seem to be jumping on the ship because they don’t want to be behind. What will be interesting is to see what happens are things like where are all these chargers going to go, are apartment complexes going to have wires running everywhere, or California asking people not to use electricity, maybe that’ll happen in other states, or when these batteries start dying where do they all go. I think we’ll be with EV for a little but hopefully too many problems arise and they die off again, though I bet it will make a switch back to hybrids. Honestly we should’ve focused on hybrids instead of jumping to EV. I will still always dream of owning a beautiful V8 combustion engine

    I'm not crazy about the idea of "electric muscle cars". Something about gasoline engines gives cars a beating heart, soul, and sexiness that electric just can't match. Society is overcorrecting in the direction of electric. Hopefully, someday people will wake up to reality and understand that we can find a way to be environmentally responsible while still having fun once in a while... and bring back real gas-powered muscle cars again!
    I would be happy with an electric (or hydrogen) car as my daily driver, with a gas-powered muscle car for a little weekend fun. The balance of the universe means responsibility with enough room left for some occasional moments of pure joy!
