Yup the age old question why not the Hellcat, these kids don’t know what it takes to get a 40k vehicle, let alone a 60k-80k and have a home and bills on top. Keep it up, that SRT looking hard
@@coryleeboxing3047 the 300 SRT8 is discontinued but can be had in $20k range. 17’+ Jeep SRT are in $50-$80k range so there a bit different markets. But both are classics
My main reasons I like the SRT jeep is 1. The steering wheel, 2. The 6.4 sounds amazing exhaust note wise, 3. You can touch 11s naturally aspirated, 4. It’s cheaper, 5. Dual exhaust, 6. Red brembos 7. 6.4 once forged pistons and rods can make 1300whp.
I just turned 30 and I'm in a lease (I've always leased) until March 2023. I'm already looking at SRT/Trackhawks to buy when I get out. To be honest - it's smart you bought this one as it won't count against you like a lease does when you go to apply for a home. The problem is used SRT's are similar cost if not more than cars like a used Porsche GTS, New Model Y, etc. It's hard to swallow "but it's a v8" when you're facing that lineup.
Yeah I couldn’t lease one of these the payments were just ridiculous cause they lease so poorly. Used SRT was my budget since I was buying a home and I couldn’t be happier I mean I’d love a Trackhawk but with time mine will be just as fast and built how I want it. Hope you get one the used car market right now is crazy and now that they announced no more SRT engines these cars will hopefully increase in value
Bro what? i’ve never leased a vehicle. I personally never saw the value in it. It always seem kind of scammy right from the beginning when you’re putting down all that money upfront on something that you’re just renting and I’m not educated on obviously cause I never leased ,I don’t know all the rules but I always like to modify my shit and I know people do modify their leases I just didn’t want to deal with that headache. But this is the first time I’ve ever heard of it affecting you applying for a home. How does it do that
@@TRICKYBYRD When applying for a mortgage, underwrites look at car loans vs leases completely differently. A lease payment, as you described it is exactly that - “rent”. At the end of the lease, your vehicle is worth $0. When you own, underwriters look at it as additional equity (although cars are a depreciating asset).
I agree with you about the Trackhawk NOT standing out from the SRT. I love the Jeep SRT8 dual center pipes. Since Jeep did discontinued for the SRT models, they should have brought it back for the Trackhawk. For the cost of the vehicle, Jeep should use higher quality material for the interior dash panel, which often peels. I cannot figure out WHY the JEEP SRT front license plate isn’t centered. The side location takes away from the look of the vehicle and is just hanging there. I like the interior lighting of the newer Mercedes and the lighted car emblem that projects onto the street, next to the vehicle. I know these may be considered fluff, but both would be a good look for the Jeep SRT and/or Jeep Trackhawk.
It’s a stop n go license plate holder so it looks like it’s just hanging freely but it can easily be removed for car shows and pics but I’m usually just too lazy to do it. It looks better on the side then the front imo. I wish new York didn’t require the front plate cause I honestly hate it. Debating just removing it entirely and taking a chance with cops. I agree they could have done some cooler stuff for both models but it’s all about what’s under the hood. Just gives me a reason to customize it to my liking lol.
I'm 18 right now and really love the trackhawk and SRT i have about $15k saved up so far but i don't feel like I'm financially stable for a commitment of monthly payments like these, started from 0 last year at 17, no parents, no house, no license, new country and nothing but $200, for now I'm just enjoying others with their beauty's till it's my time, keep it up tho ✌🏽
Wow to have that money at 18 is great man! I agree with you to blow all that on a car and trying to keep up high monthly payments isn’t smart but do what makes you happy. If I were you I’d keep saving and invest in some real estate or something that can help you make $ just my 2 cents but thanks for the comment! 🙌🏻🙏🏻
I think u could finance a used srt n put atleast 4500 down then monthly payments gonna be like 600 as long as u make atleast 2000 a month u should be good
I say definitely save more brother and get the car if if truly makes you happy. I had a scat pack at 20 working a normal job, i first saved 28,000 in 2 years by myself and threw 10,000 down with payments a 300 and had insurance under my parents so it was low around 200. It all depends on your situation bro but this market is a bit fucked Rn so at least when the time comes look for the right deal. Good luck brother 🙏💙 And I now own a CLS63 but would deff get the SRT before a trackhawk jus cause a JEEP with 700 Useless. SRT procharged is the right around a stock trackhawk for 10-20K less. Deff a win bro The Jeep looks sick btw @lago
You’re doing it the right way man, people can’t get out the way of their own egos. As long as you like your car bro, that’s all that matters. It looks good
Hope this answers the main question I’ve been getting lately. We are going to be doing some pulls in the cammed & bagged SRT real soon so stay tuned! If you are new here subscribe to the channel so you don’t miss it! Thanks for watching!!!
I make 81k a year at my primary job and have a rental property that pretty much covers my mortgage. Definitely couldn't afford even a SRT. I've a 2007 4runner right now 😁 trying to get a 2nd,3rd rental property so in 3/4 years I can get toys. Keep grinding and enjoy what you've got ignore the haters and happy birthday 🤙
Man if you don’t go get a srt You make 80k a year and you have a rental property that covers your bills You are doing good in life stop being a miser and spend some of that money you can die in your sleep tonight and never really get a chance to live your life to the fullest
Good idea man... Save your pockets and still having fun, my redsport Q50 was totaled definitely looking towards srt Jeep it has perfect amount of power don’t let those fools fool you 😂
me and you are very similar. I'm 27, bachelor, have a pretty decent job and I'm into cars but I don't earn enough to just go all out. You hit the nail on the head when you said "budget baller" lmaoo. I'm trying to save up enough for a down payment for BMW X5M. Its an addiction once you hear that V8 and get to experience how fast it is. I want to stand out and be unique too. I'm looking for one with the red interior. Anyway, I'm super happy for you and I hope you're still enjoying this beauty.
Lol I feel you bro it’s definitely an addiction. If you can afford it that bmw x5m is bad ass. When I used to live in queens my neighborhood was mostly rich Russians and they all had one. The sound on them is intoxicating lol good luck bro!
nice jeep mang i gat older than yours i luv it, slowly building it and throwing money at it a little at a time is part of the pleasure of owning it keep putting out content
Smart guy. Take care of life expenses first, then the fun stuff. I traded in my last muscle car for a 5.7 Challenger Classic with a 6m. I wanted to drive a stick again. I paid my dues(old guy) so I just bought it straight up. Slowly modded it not to look like a hot wheel’s freak but mechanical. Prices are rising too fast. 1.5 years since I bought my Magnuson SC and they are 2k more!
As a fellow Jeep SRT owner, what you have is enough! I have a used 2014 and haven't had any major issues with it, except maintenance upkeep. It's a strong vehicle and does me good and nothing against the Trackhawk owners. In my opinion, unless you're heavy into drag racing, how much power do you need or can you use on the highway?
How much power does one need? A LOT more power than 420 whp in a 5400 lb truck lmao. So one needs to be a heavy drag racer to want more than 420 whp? That made me lol literally with STUPIDITY!!!!!
Right there with you guys 😂 Got my SRT for 65k should of took the used trackhawk in the 75k to 85k and tuffed it out till I could refinance with a lower apr 🤦🏻♂️ would of had 30 to 40k equity rn
got my 2017 absolutely fully loaded destroyer gray charger hellcat in 2019 from security dodge, small world lol....GREAT dealership they replaced my defective $2,000 radio a month ago for $200 complete with free install! everyone else was asking ~$2k install included. currently 22.5k miles on the hellcat, bought it with ~21k miles.......but bad ass jeep! have a black fully loaded 07 srt8 w/ 58k miles on it as of today and NOT selling
You got some nice rides! Wish I could afford more than 1 at a time but maybe in the future lol. Security is a good dealership and they always have some crazy cars on the lot. I like the old school srt8 the used car market is crazy and eventually all these hemis will most likely be worth even more once everything goes electric.
I live in SoCal and trying to find a new Trackhawk is like trying to find a 4 leaf clover. California hates gas guzzlers. I bought my 2019 Jeep SRT because I realized really quick that using 707hp on SoCal freeways was a joke. You never make it past 35mph hahaha. I'm happy with my buy. It cost me about $80k when all was said and done. I'll be installing a Procharger in the near future. Happy birthday. I'll turning 40 in a few days :(
Lol a good Trackhawk with low miles is hard to find over here too. It’s a lot of sketchy dealerships who got their hands on them. Totally agree there is no point to have that much horsepower on New York roads either I’m usually in bumper to bumper traffic and if there is open space you can bet there will be a pothole coming up or a cop waiting for your ass lol. 40 is still young man! Let me know how you like the pro charger when you get it. I heard good things about them!
Tengo varias cherokees...y me decidí por la srt 2018 en lugar de la trackhawk porque el motor es más grande y se le pueden hacer muchas mejores ... el hellcat 6.2 ya está casi al límite de lo que puede dar. Excelente video! Saludos desde Monterrey, México.
Yo I feel you man I'm in the same boat ....want a unique srt with a wicked exhaust and paint job .....having a family and so forth its hard man ....not going to the track so 700 hp or more wear am I going with that
Lol that’s exactly how I felt when I bought it. Not sure where you live but I can’t even use my SRT power most of the time there’s traffic all over Ny lol
Lago_SRT you are a smart man and think exactly the way that I do. I have a 2014 GC SRT and love it. Even though my wifes Trailblazer SS is faster I still love my SRT. Good luck with yours and keep us posted.
Lago_SRT keep the build vids coming…doing it blue collar old school style is a hell of a lot more fun and satisfying when you Cruz your car than just buying it in my experience. In my opinion I think you dodged a bullit by not getting that HellJeep. I just picked up a 16 with 47k miles and a part timer just for the sole purpose of dumping a stupid amount of money into this thing and not feel it. I’ve done this all my life with all my builds and let me tell you man…it’s pretty fuckin cool riding around in a built machine. Keep up the good work
People can call me a brokie or whatever but honestly, anything above 600-700+ horsepower is really unusable in the street. I wouldn't wanna spend a whole lot of money on a car I can't even use most of its potential with and that's why I really like that these Jeep/Durango SRTs and Charger/Challenger Scat Packs are available, at least when it comes to Mopar
@@Lagolifestyle I was able to rent a 2015 SRT in June and that was the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever driven. God bless Turo because that thing was incredible. I was actually driving on the Taconic towards Bear Mountain and Woodbury when a trooper stopped me and gave me my first ever ticket lol, I seriously need to get one eventually because the speed and practicality combined is just too good of a package
Thx for the vid bro it was nice to see your wheels up close and even though you're running 22's there's still a lot of meat on them. Hopefully I'll find something I like because I def want 22's and good luck with that supercharger for me I love that it's naturally aspirated it was one of the selling points for me.
Ha. I had a 94, ole boxy, then I had had a 2004 absolutely decked out and got t boned. Still my favorite car ever and that was damn like 20 years ago now and I have always always wanted the srt It was just always had a reach with the gas prices getting crazy like Ty they did for the first time I just never bit the bullet but I finally did today. I can’t wait to get it shipped in and I’m pretty sure this will end up being my favorite, but yeah, pretty much got the same Car story with some randoms in between.
@@Lagolifestyle it's funny that's exactly what I said to myself when I said fuck it I'm doing it. I'm getting old enough as it is and I'd hate to be just an old man thinking about shit I should have had or done. I got enough of that already. Dope ass TRX by the way
I currently own a 2012 mustang 5.0, 2019 mustang 5.0 pp1, 2019 Raptor supercrew with custom bed rack that holds extra spare, 10 lb powertank, max trax extreme boards, pro eagle big wheel 2 ton jack, beaver shovel (my bed is basically useless now), and a 2021 jeep Trackhawk. I can afford it so it’s no problem. I absolutely love my Trackhawk. It’s insane! The launch is insane. I’ve beat so many cars on roll races too. On a freeway roll, it’s actually only a little faster than my 19 5.0 pp1.The supercharger whine is addicting. I absolutely love the Trackhawk. I’ve never owned a vehicle that has made me this happy. Never. And I’ve owned a few sports cars. It’s just the fact that it’s a big comfort 707hp suv. What I do not like. I hate the ugly Trackhawk emblem in the rear. I’m getting it ceramic coated Tuesday and will have them apply 2 Trackhawk emblems on the side (just like the Durango hellcat has). I want to buy another emblem for the front. I just don’t like the lack of cool emblems. I’m not an emblem freak. But I need something nice. I initially hated that the brembos were yellow. But they grew on me day 1. Look at the prices now. Markups are insane! Markups are 25-50k now. Lol! I had to pay 4k markup but have zero regrets.
Good for you man! Trackhawk is an absolute beast and if I could have went back and done it again I think I would have just waited a few more months saved up some more cash and got one myself. Now it’s impossible to get one for a reasonable price or one that hasn’t been beaten to shit lol. Good luck with the hawk bro! 🙌🏻
@@Lagolifestyle speaking of beaten to shit! I have 3,023 miles and my oil life percentage is at 0%. I’ve beat this thing so hard that I already need to change the oil!!! Lol!!! It’s black black!!! I can’t tell you how many times I’ve launched it!!! Lol!!!! I leave it in sport mode daily. For no reason. Yeah, I would not buy a used Trackhawk. Everyone that buys one beats on it. So it seems like.
Idk if you still have the jeep but vicrez has a crazy clean oem looking widebody kit for Jeep grand Cherokee with front splitter for 1500 lord that kit is sexy
La neta llegue a tu canal viendo comprar una y no me decido cual pero creo que me iré por la srt8 para ponerle un turbocharged y armarla a mi manera, gracias por este video bro🤙
I’m with you I got a 15 srt jeep I spent 11k on a procharger set up I’m about to forge the 392 then I can make 1k hp I paid 42k for the jeep so 10k for motor 11k for procharger so I’m still 20k under price of a stock hawk
Dude, since Dodge is not longer making SRT’s I’m looking for one since they’re holding there value a LOT. 2015-17 are going for about 60-65k sheeeshh. Although I’m not quite sure of getting one because of them being used and most of us that have fast cars we always step on them.
Yeah you have to be careful I’m pretty sure the guy who had the SRT before me beat the shit out of it and was putting regular gas in it instead of premium and most likely why I ran into issues. If possible try to get a really low mileage one or have some good extended warranty on it like a certified preowned. The used car market is crazy Good luck!
Hey bro, nice content appreciate the time you take to make these and upload for us. Could you do a mods list? For instance, your stance is awesome are you running different tires/rims and are you lowered? Would love to have my car look like yours. Thanks !
Hey man I appreciate that! I pretty much go through all my mods in the videos but to break it down I was on air suspension which was a kit by air lift performance, 22 inch velgen wheels with lionhart 305/35/22 tires.
@@Lagolifestyle thanks for the quick reply man! Noted. Will watch your videos. Two quick follow up questions: would you recommend a kit or perhaps just some lowering springs? And would 315's work for the tires?
@@awalehb I believe I saw someone running 315s on their jeep but I’m not positive. Air bags are the winner for me the ride comfort is amazing and love how you can adjust it. Sits perfectly when riding around you can air it up fully if you encounter some bumpy roads and bag it when parked or at a car show or if you just want to show off lol
I got a good deal on mine. 2015 srt 55k , Color Gun metal. Not gonna go crazy but I’m looking to put an intake and possibly a more aggressive exhaust system.
For me right now it’s the price, but I feel like I’d regret getting the SRT over the Hellcat that’s why I’m hoping next year the hype dies down so I can cop the Durango Hellcat
Yeah I def had some regret and should have waited to get the TH but live and learn and now I got a TRX so I’m happy! The market seems to be resetting so you may be able to find something soon
Nice video. I can barely differentiate the track hawk from other jeeps myself. Damn didn’t realize those track hawks are selling for 80k used with all those miles on ‘em. Crazy. You’re renting but that’s gonna change soon? You gotta move out to LI and represent! Jeep is looking fire 🔥🔥🔥
Yea they are still so expensive and will probably go up in price since they announced they have no plans to build anymore 😱. I am coming back to LI hopefully very soon!
I just came across a new 2021 Trackhawk at a dealership about an hour and a half away from me. $122,000! 🤯 I mean, yes, sure…it would be incredibly fun to own. But not in any way practical for 99.5% of the population. One, how often could you *actually* put it to even 50% of what it’s capable of? And two, put that money into appreciating assets. Very few people actually have the disposable income to afford that kind of vehicle. For those who do…good for you. Enjoy the fruits of your labor and/or luck and good fortune. But most people can’t even really afford the $50,000 vehicles that they’re driving.
I had to do it my man YOLO. I’m lazy and got older and don’t feel like dealing with the building process anymore. I barely have time away from kids so I just went travkhawk route. But either way SRT is a nice turbo build in my opinion.
Yea brotha. I got tired of German expenses and decide to be all American on this. I’m in NY area definitely see ya around!keep up the post I will subscribe
Agreed, to me the srt n traxkhawk has always been pretty much the same thing if you don't got it like that then it's definitely not worth trying to go broke owning a track. I'm gonna try n finance a 2014 srt for the first time I got 20k saved up n make 1300 a month currently. Gonna upgrade it little by little like u The goal for me is to get it to 500hp.
That’s the smart move and who knows down the road with the used car market you may be able to cash in and upgrade. Like you said no point going broke to just own a car and barely be able to put gas in it lol. Good luck bro any year SRT is bad ass!
My SRT Cherokee has a built 6.4L from HHP/BES Racing, unfortunately not a sleeper with the Cam in it. What Lowering Springs do you have on your Jeep ? Also if your interested I have a low Mileage D1SC ProCharger with Race Intercooler for sale. May be keeping her N/A and not boosting. But let me know if your interested. Already have @$20Gs into the engine and redoing suspension/lowering, and some customizing, etc. Den
I bought mine because I couldn't see spending another $30-40K basically for a different motor, I could spend less than that and build my 6.4L to make the same power. I do all my own motor work so I can save a ton on labor, just need a shop to dial my mods in.
@@Lagolifestyle currently I'm saving for a forged bottom end along with a new cam, something with a lob but not to aggressive. I have a set of headers and green cats that will be going on in the spring and changing out to a full 3" exhaust with 5" tips. I've also been doing some research on putting a hellcat supercharger on it because it's a little more unique then doing a whipple.
I’m going with this over the charger srt because if I’m going to invest money in a vehicle and going into debt, my goal is to have a vehicle that will help me out w in the future when I plan to have a family
Smart move man! No point to put yourself in financial trouble for a car. Use your $ wisely and when you got some spare cash you can spend either save it to upgrade later on or build that charger out!
If your gonna build it. it’s a waste to buy the track hawk. For what you pay if you do your own mods you will get more power. (Even if your paying a shop) They are basically the same vehicle minus a supercharger and some stupid ad ons. Still sane diff same trans same motor base.
Appreciate the info but ended up going a different route before I got to the stage of supercharging it. Needed to upgrade to something bigger and unfortunately couldn’t see it play out
Cam across you video. I'm looking for a 2018 Rhino clear coat color myself. Same boat as you want a trackhawk but those prices are crazy. Found a Rhino srt with 42,000 on it for under 60$k it's my dream car in wanted one ever since they released them.
@@Lagolifestyle I can't bring myself to spend 100k$ on a beat on Trackhaw. The Srt is defiantly the move & like you did I can mod it if I want more power. Would you say the srt is reliable? It would be my daily. I'm going to go test drive it on Saturday 😁
Yup I’m a new subscriber now I was thinking of getting a Jeep srt or trackhawk but my friends were saying nope definitely not a trackhawk where in the hell are you going with that in NY lol but a co worker of mine has the glc amg & another just got the basic glc 300 but features are insane. A third friend sent me a glc Benz but the srt is calling me I’m a 6’4 giant 😩 I’m coming from an Infiniti m35 and she did me good for 10yrs time to let her rest lol
I’m 23 just bought a condo(so building equity) and have 2017 Audi A4. I’m thinking on trading in my A4 for an SRT but am questioning how much space is in it. I’m 6’6 245 lbs and my A4 is cramped to all hell. I really like srt but I don’t wanna pay an extra 20k if I’m not gonna be comfortable, and also how is the power stock? My Audi has stage 1 APR tune and gets 0-60 In about 4.5 so I’m just wondering do you think it’s worth it to trade or should I stick it out in the a4
Damn for 23 you’re doing great and there’s plenty of space in the SRT it’s a pretty big SUV so definitely will feel like heaven compared to your A4. Stock I got the SRT 0-60 to 4.7 and with prime conditions you can probably get it to almost 4.5 so plenty of power and enough room to lug friends and family around with no issues. It’s an amazing suv in my opinion
Honest opinion guys I’m 23 always been in love with scats but it’s so much hype on them police pull them over everything I thought about getting a 2014 srt jeep just to pay off them trade in to get something better bad idea ?
A used jeep SRT should hold its value pretty well but if you can wait to save some more and get the better ride I would. If I could go back I would have just saved up more and got a trackhawk. Cars also aren’t great investments imo but I’m also financially irresponsible when it comes to mopars lol
Good afternoon my brother who install the front carbon fiber for you because I really need help with mine I have the same one if you can please give me a hand with it and show me how you did it I will appreciate it
THEY HOLD VALUE CAUSE THEY STOP MAKING THEM ..TRULY THEY ARE OVER PRICED BY AT LEAST 10,000 NO WAY ..2018 STILL SELLING FOR 70,000 + THOUSANDS AND 2019 WITH 50,000 MILES LIKE 80,000 WHAT AND THEY RAN TOO THE DIRT .. NO WAY
I think it definitely was beat on and that’s why I ran into issues and pretty sure the guy who leased it was putting regular gas in it instead of premium but you live and you learn and I’ll definitely not do that again!
Damn bro sorry to hear that. This is why I have not bought a Jeep SRT but its my favorite car is because people beat on those cars and I could not afford a new SRT with 0 miles and they don't make them anymore. Bro what issues did you have so far?? The worst issue I think that SRT has is "Semi Lifter & Camshaft issue" Which requires to replace or rebuild the engine.@@Lagolifestyle
@@romankartsev220 yeah I had lifter failure so I planned on supercharging it so I rebuilt the motor with forged internals and cammed it but then Covid hit and I was having tuning issues and really wanted a TRX so was able to sell it and pay off what I put into it and still have a down payment for the truck so in the end it all worked out

I just turned 30 and I'm in a lease (I've always leased) until March 2023. I'm already looking at SRT/Trackhawks to buy when I get out. To be honest - it's smart you bought this one as it won't count against you like a lease does when you go to apply for a home.
The problem is used SRT's are similar cost if not more than cars like a used Porsche GTS, New Model Y, etc. It's hard to swallow "but it's a v8" when you're facing that lineup.
Yeah I couldn’t lease one of these the payments were just ridiculous cause they lease so poorly. Used SRT was my budget since I was buying a home and I couldn’t be happier I mean I’d love a Trackhawk but with time mine will be just as fast and built how I want it. Hope you get one the used car market right now is crazy and now that they announced no more SRT engines these cars will hopefully increase in value
Bro what? i’ve never leased a vehicle. I personally never saw the value in it. It always seem kind of scammy right from the beginning when you’re putting down all that money upfront on something that you’re just renting and I’m not educated on obviously cause I never leased ,I don’t know all the rules but I always like to modify my shit and I know people do modify their leases I just didn’t want to deal with that headache. But this is the first time I’ve ever heard of it affecting you applying for a home. How does it do that
@@TRICKYBYRD When applying for a mortgage, underwrites look at car loans vs leases completely differently.
A lease payment, as you described it is exactly that - “rent”. At the end of the lease, your vehicle is worth $0. When you own, underwriters look at it as additional equity (although cars are a depreciating asset).
I agree with you about the Trackhawk NOT standing out from the SRT. I love the Jeep SRT8 dual center pipes. Since Jeep did discontinued for the SRT models, they should have brought it back for the Trackhawk.
For the cost of the vehicle, Jeep should use higher quality material for the interior dash panel, which often peels.
I cannot figure out WHY the JEEP SRT front license plate isn’t centered. The side location takes away from the look of the vehicle and is just hanging there.
I like the interior lighting of the newer Mercedes and the lighted car emblem that projects onto the street, next to the vehicle.
I know these may be considered fluff, but both would be a good look for the Jeep SRT and/or Jeep Trackhawk.
It’s a stop n go license plate holder so it looks like it’s just hanging freely but it can easily be removed for car shows and pics but I’m usually just too lazy to do it. It looks better on the side then the front imo. I wish new York didn’t require the front plate cause I honestly hate it. Debating just removing it entirely and taking a chance with cops.
I agree they could have done some cooler stuff for both models but it’s all about what’s under the hood. Just gives me a reason to customize it to my liking lol.
I'm 18 right now and really love the trackhawk and SRT i have about $15k saved up so far but i don't feel like I'm financially stable for a commitment of monthly payments like these, started from 0 last year at 17, no parents, no house, no license, new country and nothing but $200, for now I'm just enjoying others with their beauty's till it's my time, keep it up tho ✌🏽
Wow to have that money at 18 is great man! I agree with you to blow all that on a car and trying to keep up high monthly payments isn’t smart but do what makes you happy. If I were you I’d keep saving and invest in some real estate or something that can help you make $ just my 2 cents but thanks for the comment! 🙌🏻🙏🏻
Yeah dude you’ll be dead with payments
@@codyquann8171 for sure
I think u could finance a used srt n put atleast 4500 down then monthly payments gonna be like 600 as long as u make atleast 2000 a month u should be good
I say definitely save more brother and get the car if if truly makes you happy. I had a scat pack at 20 working a normal job, i first saved 28,000 in 2 years by myself and threw 10,000 down with payments a 300 and had insurance under my parents so it was low around 200. It all depends on your situation bro but this market is a bit fucked Rn so at least when the time comes look for the right deal. Good luck brother 🙏💙 And I now own a CLS63 but would deff get the SRT before a trackhawk jus cause a JEEP with 700 Useless. SRT procharged is the right around a stock trackhawk for 10-20K less. Deff a win bro The Jeep looks sick btw @lago
You’re doing it the right way man, people can’t get out the way of their own egos. As long as you like your car bro, that’s all that matters. It looks good
Appreciate it bro! Unfortunately couldn’t keep the Jeep anymore but it was a fun journey!
Thanks for keeping it real that’s like 85% of us. We love cars can’t work on them want the monster engine but got bills
No problem man! Appreciate the sub 🙌🏻🙏🏻
@Booby Belly lmao keep grinding bro you’ll get it!
Hope this answers the main question I’ve been getting lately. We are going to be doing some pulls in the cammed & bagged SRT real soon so stay tuned! If you are new here subscribe to the channel so you don’t miss it! Thanks for watching!!!
Nice car brother but why not just save up and pay cash ?

@@elcapo8596 well said brother. Life is short of a car makes you happy then do it! 🙌🏻👊🏻
Respect! Sick truck. The “why not get the ____” question will always be irrelevant!
Thanks bro and you’re right!
Best decision. trackhawks way too overpriced man but if i did have the money i would still rather get the hawk instead of a URUS. Thoughts?
Trackhawk all day nothing is better than that supercharger whine 🍷
I’d want a urus but I’d need a track hawk also
Good idea man... Save your pockets and still having fun, my redsport Q50 was totaled definitely looking towards srt Jeep it has perfect amount of power don’t let those fools fool you 😂
Haha can’t go wrong with the SRT. Sorry to hear about your car but maybe it was a sign to get you in a Jeep 😁
me and you are very similar. I'm 27, bachelor, have a pretty decent job and I'm into cars but I don't earn enough to just go all out. You hit the nail on the head when you said "budget baller" lmaoo. I'm trying to save up enough for a down payment for BMW X5M. Its an addiction once you hear that V8 and get to experience how fast it is. I want to stand out and be unique too. I'm looking for one with the red interior. Anyway, I'm super happy for you and I hope you're still enjoying this beauty.
Lol I feel you bro it’s definitely an addiction. If you can afford it that bmw x5m is bad ass. When I used to live in queens my neighborhood was mostly rich Russians and they all had one. The sound on them is intoxicating lol good luck bro!
nice jeep mang i gat older than yours i luv it, slowly building it and throwing money at it a little at a time is part of the pleasure of owning it
keep putting out content
Thanks bro I appreciate it 🙌🏻🙏🏻
Smart guy. Take care of life expenses first, then the fun stuff. I traded in my last muscle car for a 5.7 Challenger Classic with a 6m. I wanted to drive a stick again. I paid my dues(old guy) so I just bought it straight up. Slowly modded it not to look like a hot wheel’s freak but mechanical. Prices are rising too fast. 1.5 years since I bought my Magnuson SC and they are 2k more!
Jeeze that sounds like a sweet ride! Wish they made more of these new muscle cars in manual!
This car hard af, i love all these big ass cars, super rare to see one in the uk! Goal is to own any baddass car like this
Thanks!
Dude you're like the same type of car guy as me. Never came across someone else with my same attitude towards it.
Appreciate it bro
As a fellow Jeep SRT owner, what you have is enough! I have a used 2014 and haven't had any major issues with it, except maintenance upkeep. It's a strong vehicle and does me good and nothing against the Trackhawk owners. In my opinion, unless you're heavy into drag racing, how much power do you need or can you use on the highway?
That’s a good point I loved my SRT it definitely was good enough for me! Enjoy that Jeep my man
How much power does one need? A LOT more power than 420 whp in a 5400 lb truck lmao. So one needs to be a heavy drag racer to want more than 420 whp? That made me lol literally with STUPIDITY!!!!!
Regret not getting a Trackhawk when they were in the 70’s
I know you and me both. When I went to look at them it was either brand new or in the 85k or over range used
Right there with you guys 😂 Got my SRT for 65k should of took the used trackhawk in the 75k to 85k and tuffed it out till I could refinance with a lower apr 🤦🏻♂️ would of had 30 to 40k equity rn
You got a Boston Rob look going on there…….but Boston Rob wouldn’t drive a beast like that! Beautiful SRT…..I’m loving my 2016 SRT. Good vid
😂 Not sure what a Boston rob is but hope it’s a compliment lol. Thanks bro 🙏🏻
got my 2017 absolutely fully loaded destroyer gray charger hellcat in 2019 from security dodge, small world lol....GREAT dealership they replaced my defective $2,000 radio a month ago for $200 complete with free install! everyone else was asking ~$2k install included. currently 22.5k miles on the hellcat, bought it with ~21k miles.......but bad ass jeep! have a black fully loaded 07 srt8 w/ 58k miles on it as of today and NOT selling
You got some nice rides! Wish I could afford more than 1 at a time but maybe in the future lol. Security is a good dealership and they always have some crazy cars on the lot. I like the old school srt8 the used car market is crazy and eventually all these hemis will most likely be worth even more once everything goes electric.
I live in SoCal and trying to find a new Trackhawk is like trying to find a 4 leaf clover. California hates gas guzzlers. I bought my 2019 Jeep SRT because I realized really quick that using 707hp on SoCal freeways was a joke. You never make it past 35mph hahaha. I'm happy with my buy. It cost me about $80k when all was said and done. I'll be installing a Procharger in the near future. Happy birthday. I'll turning 40 in a few days :(
Lol a good Trackhawk with low miles is hard to find over here too. It’s a lot of sketchy dealerships who got their hands on them. Totally agree there is no point to have that much horsepower on New York roads either I’m usually in bumper to bumper traffic and if there is open space you can bet there will be a pothole coming up or a cop waiting for your ass lol. 40 is still young man! Let me know how you like the pro charger when you get it. I heard good things about them!
@Booby Belly stealerships always trying to rip you off
Tengo varias cherokees...y me decidí por la srt 2018 en lugar de la trackhawk porque el motor es más grande y se le pueden hacer muchas mejores ... el hellcat 6.2 ya está casi al límite de lo que puede dar. Excelente video! Saludos desde Monterrey, México.
Congratulations on the SRT!! Thank you
Love my jeep srt 🔥🔥great video haaamie
Your Jeep is 🔥🔥 thanks bro 🙌🏻
Yo I feel you man I'm in the same boat ....want a unique srt with a wicked exhaust and paint job .....having a family and so forth its hard man ....not going to the track so 700 hp or more wear am I going with that
Lol that’s exactly how I felt when I bought it. Not sure where you live but I can’t even use my SRT power most of the time there’s traffic all over Ny lol
@@Lagolifestyle facts especially on the van wck lol
@@thejuggernautlou3881 😂😂
Lago_SRT you are a smart man and think exactly the way that I do. I have a 2014 GC SRT and love it. Even though my wifes Trailblazer SS is faster I still love my SRT. Good luck with yours and keep us posted.
Appreciate it bro 🙏🏻 and I’ll definitely keep posting videos
Lago_SRT keep the build vids coming…doing it blue collar old school style is a hell of a lot more fun and satisfying when you Cruz your car than just buying it in my experience. In my opinion I think you dodged a bullit by not getting that HellJeep. I just picked up a 16 with 47k miles and a part timer just for the sole purpose of dumping a stupid amount of money into this thing and not feel it. I’ve done this all my life with all my builds and let me tell you man…it’s pretty fuckin cool riding around in a built machine. Keep up the good work
@@AC-yi3qb I couldn’t agree with you more and I appreciate the support I’ll definitely keep the channel going!! 🙏🏻🙌🏻
People can call me a brokie or whatever but honestly, anything above 600-700+ horsepower is really unusable in the street. I wouldn't wanna spend a whole lot of money on a car I can't even use most of its potential with and that's why I really like that these Jeep/Durango SRTs and Charger/Challenger Scat Packs are available, at least when it comes to Mopar
Well said I can barely use the SRT horsepower in NY unless I take it out at like 2am on empty roads lol
@@Lagolifestyle I was able to rent a 2015 SRT in June and that was the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever driven. God bless Turo because that thing was incredible. I was actually driving on the Taconic towards Bear Mountain and Woodbury when a trooper stopped me and gave me my first ever ticket lol, I seriously need to get one eventually because the speed and practicality combined is just too good of a package
@@Justin_GFM haha yeah those SRTs will get you in trouble it’s hard to drive it without a heavy foot lol! Glad you enjoyed it
Solo disfrútala! Esa SRT está 👌🏽😍 enjoy bro👍🏼
Thank you 🙌🏻🙏🏻
Thx for the vid bro it was nice to see your wheels up close and even though you're running 22's there's still a lot of meat on them. Hopefully I'll find something I like because I def want 22's and good luck with that supercharger for me I love that it's naturally aspirated it was one of the selling points for me.
Yea the 22s aren’t bad at all even driving on these shitty roads. They look good too since the Jeep is so big but the squat on the 20s is what I miss!
Ha. I had a 94, ole boxy, then I had had a 2004 absolutely decked out and got t boned. Still my favorite car ever and that was damn like 20 years ago now and I have always always wanted the srt It was just always had a reach with the gas prices getting crazy like Ty they did for the first time I just never bit the bullet but I finally did today. I can’t wait to get it shipped in and I’m pretty sure this will end up being my favorite, but yeah, pretty much got the same Car story with some randoms in between.
Life is short enjoy whatever that makes you happy!
@@Lagolifestyle it's funny that's exactly what I said to myself when I said fuck it I'm doing it. I'm getting old enough as it is and I'd hate to be just an old man thinking about shit I should have had or done. I got enough of that already. Dope ass
TRX by the way
@@TRICKYBYRD exactly bro I can care less what anyone says I do whatever I want to and I’m glad you went for what made you happy. Life is short man!
I currently own a 2012 mustang 5.0, 2019 mustang 5.0 pp1, 2019 Raptor supercrew with custom bed rack that holds extra spare, 10 lb powertank, max trax extreme boards, pro eagle big wheel 2 ton jack, beaver shovel (my bed is basically useless now), and a 2021 jeep Trackhawk.
I can afford it so it’s no problem. I absolutely love my Trackhawk. It’s insane! The launch is insane. I’ve beat so many cars on roll races too. On a freeway roll, it’s actually only a little faster than my 19 5.0 pp1.The supercharger whine is addicting. I absolutely love the Trackhawk. I’ve never owned a vehicle that has made me this happy. Never. And I’ve owned a few sports cars. It’s just the fact that it’s a big comfort 707hp suv.
What I do not like. I hate the ugly Trackhawk emblem in the rear. I’m getting it ceramic coated Tuesday and will have them apply 2 Trackhawk emblems on the side (just like the Durango hellcat has). I want to buy another emblem for the front. I just don’t like the lack of cool emblems. I’m not an emblem freak. But I need something nice. I initially hated that the brembos were yellow. But they grew on me day 1.
Look at the prices now. Markups are insane! Markups are 25-50k now. Lol! I had to pay 4k markup but have zero regrets.
Good for you man! Trackhawk is an absolute beast and if I could have went back and done it again I think I would have just waited a few more months saved up some more cash and got one myself. Now it’s impossible to get one for a reasonable price or one that hasn’t been beaten to shit lol. Good luck with the hawk bro! 🙌🏻
@@Lagolifestyle speaking of beaten to shit! I have 3,023 miles and my oil life percentage is at 0%. I’ve beat this thing so hard that I already need to change the oil!!! Lol!!! It’s black black!!! I can’t tell you how many times I’ve launched it!!! Lol!!!! I leave it in sport mode daily. For no reason. Yeah, I would not buy a used Trackhawk. Everyone that buys one beats on it. So it seems like.
Built not bought I am with you bro all the best be watching your progress
Thanks bro! Unfortunately I didn’t get it to where I wanted to I had an opportunity to sell it and couldn’t pass it up
That rumble though 😍💙🤞🏼
Thank you bebeeee
Your money = Buy what you want = Doesn't matter what others think,as long as you're happy💯 = BUY THE SRT JEEP😊

Also great channel content while building it, just keep moving on that direction and you won't be disappointed at all...
Appreciate that bro. Going to keep grinding 🙏🏻🙌🏻
Idk if you still have the jeep but vicrez has a crazy clean oem looking widebody kit for Jeep grand Cherokee with front splitter for 1500 lord that kit is sexy
Haven’t seen it yet but I sold the Jeep and upgraded a few years back.

Gracias amigo! 🙏🏻🙌🏻
I’m with you I got a 15 srt jeep I spent 11k on a procharger set up I’m about to forge the 392 then I can make 1k hp I paid 42k for the jeep so 10k for motor 11k for procharger so I’m still 20k under price of a stock hawk
That sounds awesome and it’s a sleeper which is the best part no one is going to expect that kind of power. Awesome build!
Dude, since Dodge is not longer making SRT’s I’m looking for one since they’re holding there value a LOT. 2015-17 are going for about 60-65k sheeeshh. Although I’m not quite sure of getting one because of them being used and most of us that have fast cars we always step on them.
Yeah you have to be careful I’m pretty sure the guy who had the SRT before me beat the shit out of it and was putting regular gas in it instead of premium and most likely why I ran into issues. If possible try to get a really low mileage one or have some good extended warranty on it like a certified preowned. The used car market is crazy Good luck!
that SRT is a beauty, congrats!
Thank you! 🙌🏻
You seem like a blue collar guy who like nice things and u have ur own mind I dig that bro new subscriber here

I love the badging on the srt but I’d b lying saying I don’t won’t a track but i agree fr it not enough changes to go crazy over
At the time if I could go back I would have just saved some more and got a TH but the SRT was fun to drive!
I went with the svr instead range 2017 70k cad in Calgary Alberta

I just came across a new 2021 Trackhawk at a dealership about an hour and a half away from me. $122,000! 🤯
I mean, yes, sure…it would be incredibly fun to own. But not in any way practical for 99.5% of the population. One, how often could you *actually* put it to even 50% of what it’s capable of? And two, put that money into appreciating assets. Very few people actually have the disposable income to afford that kind of vehicle. For those who do…good for you. Enjoy the fruits of your labor and/or luck and good fortune. But most people can’t even really afford the $50,000 vehicles that they’re driving.
Yes used 85000 with taxes with 26k miles. Just had to pull the trigger all Jeep’s holding value
Wow that’s a great deal! The used car market is crazy right now.
I had to do it my man YOLO. I’m lazy and got older and don’t feel like dealing with the building process anymore. I barely have time away from kids so I just went travkhawk route. But either way SRT is a nice turbo build in my opinion.

Agreed, to me the srt n traxkhawk has always been pretty much the same thing if you don't got it like that then it's definitely not worth trying to go broke owning a track.
I'm gonna try n finance a 2014 srt for the first time I got 20k saved up n make 1300 a month currently. Gonna upgrade it little by little like u The goal for me is to get it to 500hp.
That’s the smart move and who knows down the road with the used car market you may be able to cash in and upgrade. Like you said no point going broke to just own a car and barely be able to put gas in it lol. Good luck bro any year SRT is bad ass!
save another 20 thousand and hellcat swap it.
@@ricoflamma5430oh fr u can do that?
My SRT Cherokee has a built 6.4L from HHP/BES Racing, unfortunately not a sleeper with the Cam in it. What Lowering Springs do you have on your Jeep ? Also if your interested I have a low Mileage D1SC ProCharger with Race Intercooler for sale. May be keeping her N/A and not boosting. But let me know if your interested. Already have @$20Gs into the engine and redoing suspension/lowering, and some customizing, etc. Den
My jeep was bagged and no thanks on the pro charger not sure what I’m doing with the jeep yet but thanks!
I bought mine because I couldn't see spending another $30-40K basically for a different motor, I could spend less than that and build my 6.4L to make the same power. I do all my own motor work so I can save a ton on labor, just need a shop to dial my mods in.
Smart! I wish I knew how to do motor work I would have saved myself a ton of money. What you plan on doing?
@@Lagolifestyle currently I'm saving for a forged bottom end along with a new cam, something with a lob but not to aggressive. I have a set of headers and green cats that will be going on in the spring and changing out to a full 3" exhaust with 5" tips. I've also been doing some research on putting a hellcat supercharger on it because it's a little more unique then doing a whipple.

Smart move man! No point to put yourself in financial trouble for a car. Use your $ wisely and when you got some spare cash you can spend either save it to upgrade later on or build that charger out!

If your gonna build it. it’s a waste to buy the track hawk. For what you pay if you do your own mods you will get more power. (Even if your paying a shop) They are basically the same vehicle minus a supercharger and some stupid ad ons. Still sane diff same trans same motor base.
Appreciate the info but ended up going a different route before I got to the stage of supercharging it. Needed to upgrade to something bigger and unfortunately couldn’t see it play out
I paid 81000 plus tax with 19800 miles.. 85000 out the door in michigan

No excuses. You made a sound financial decision.
At the time I like to think I did! Thank you
Cam across you video. I'm looking for a 2018 Rhino clear coat color myself. Same boat as you want a trackhawk but those prices are crazy. Found a Rhino srt with 42,000 on it for under 60$k it's my dream car in wanted one ever since they released them.

@@Lagolifestyle I can't bring myself to spend 100k$ on a beat on Trackhaw. The Srt is defiantly the move & like you did I can mod it if I want more power. Would you say the srt is reliable? It would be my daily. I'm going to go test drive it on Saturday 😁

I’m 23 just bought a condo(so building equity) and have 2017 Audi A4. I’m thinking on trading in my A4 for an SRT but am questioning how much space is in it. I’m 6’6 245 lbs and my A4 is cramped to all hell. I really like srt but I don’t wanna pay an extra 20k if I’m not gonna be comfortable, and also how is the power stock? My Audi has stage 1 APR tune and gets 0-60 In about 4.5 so I’m just wondering do you think it’s worth it to trade or should I stick it out in the a4
Damn for 23 you’re doing great and there’s plenty of space in the SRT it’s a pretty big SUV so definitely will feel like heaven compared to your A4. Stock I got the SRT 0-60 to 4.7 and with prime conditions you can probably get it to almost 4.5 so plenty of power and enough room to lug friends and family around with no issues. It’s an amazing suv in my opinion

@@weqijuana no problem enjoy it! Don’t forget to test the launch control it’s crazy lol
Honest opinion guys I’m 23 always been in love with scats but it’s so much hype on them police pull them over everything I thought about getting a 2014 srt jeep just to pay off them trade in to get something better bad idea ?
A used jeep SRT should hold its value pretty well but if you can wait to save some more and get the better ride I would. If I could go back I would have just saved up more and got a trackhawk. Cars also aren’t great investments imo but I’m also financially irresponsible when it comes to mopars lol
Your so lucky in America in Australia the cheapest used track hawk atm is 123k
Omg that’s crazy but I guess cause obviously it’s an import and hard to find over there they can charge whatever they want
i feel like its the same thing you could always supercharge a srt or twin turbo it or both 🤷🏻♂️
Yea exactly and build it how you want which I think is pretty cool
Good afternoon my brother who install the front carbon fiber for you because I really need help with mine I have the same one if you can please give me a hand with it and show me how you did it I will appreciate it
I had a shop install it I’d recommend finding a good mod shop
I wanted to get one imma see what dealerships have one near me
Nice!
Let me be💯
💯💯
Respect his decision but sounds like it hurts he didnt get the trackhawk. will always be in the back of his mind.
Wasn’t the right move for me at the time but now I got a TRX so I’m good :)
Try to not to move the camera to much.
Love the video I can relate to
Your story on cars.
Thanks man I appreciate it
Honesty I love it
Same!
Appreciate your honesty
No prob I appreciate you checking out the video 🙏🏻
THEY HOLD VALUE CAUSE THEY STOP MAKING THEM ..TRULY THEY ARE OVER PRICED BY AT LEAST 10,000 NO WAY ..2018 STILL SELLING FOR 70,000 + THOUSANDS AND 2019 WITH 50,000 MILES LIKE 80,000 WHAT AND THEY RAN TOO THE DIRT .. NO WAY
You realize when this video was made they were still making them right? They made trackhawks from 2018-2021
Good choice. But how do you know that your srt8 wasn’t beat on?? It’s not a good idea to buy used sports cars
I think it definitely was beat on and that’s why I ran into issues and pretty sure the guy who leased it was putting regular gas in it instead of premium but you live and you learn and I’ll definitely not do that again!
Damn bro sorry to hear that. This is why I have not bought a Jeep SRT but its my favorite car is because people beat on those cars and I could not afford a new SRT with 0 miles and they don't make them anymore.
Bro what issues did you have so far??
The worst issue I think that SRT has is "Semi Lifter & Camshaft issue" Which requires to replace or rebuild the engine.@@Lagolifestyle
@@romankartsev220 yeah I had lifter failure so I planned on supercharging it so I rebuilt the motor with forged internals and cammed it but then Covid hit and I was having tuning issues and really wanted a TRX so was able to sell it and pay off what I put into it and still have a down payment for the truck so in the end it all worked out
Glad it worked out bro. I honestly would take SRT8 over TRX because SUV has more purpose for Daily. I am planning of getting SRT8 later on after my warranty runs out on my Subaru WRX so I am doing the research before to see if I even should get into SRT8

@@romankartsev220 very nice I hope that works out for you!
I’ve been looking at a red one that’s in my area but idk if I’m down for the payment lmao
Haha yeah the payments on these are brutal! My SRT was bad enough but these are a whole different level 😂
🎂🎂🎂🎂 Happy birthday.
Thanks brother. Years are just flying by so quick 😢
Hey I was wondering what percent of tint you put on the taillights.
I believe it was 30
@@Lagolifestyle do you still have this car? I was trying to find your instagram
@@Srtblurr nope not anymore sold it during Covid and got a TRX
how much to fill the tank? Is it 6 mpg city and 8 mpg highway?
It was just an average of 8 I think I didn’t do too much driving on the highway so probably closer to city mpg. To fill up was around $100
are the back seats comfortable?
Idk I never sit back there lol but never had any complaints it’s so roomy back there my dog seems to like it too 😂
Badass video
Thanks I appreciate it!
You can put a hellcat supercharger on the 6.4
Yeah I thought about that
camera steadiness needs upgraded lol
@@TaylorGrayson33 lol yeah I agree
