The interior on these new Dodge are a huge step up from previous models. Kudos to Dodge.
The T/A Challengers were known for road racing. That’s what T/A stands for (Trans Am). They called it the T/A so they didn’t have to pay royalties to GM for the use of the name Trans Am.
Inbound Light I thought they called it that in honour of women everywhere!
Agreed NOT drag racer. Road courses.
You test drove the 2018 mustang gt in rain and the 2018 challenger 392 in the rain. Do you watch the weather channel?
😂
Your videos/ review are always straight to the point great video
Thanks!
i love that bumble bee ! thanks for always reviewing the different classes of challengers and giving the specifics .Party on Wayne ! hahaha
unjaded2 bumblebee? It's a ta not a scatpack
just talking about the color combo
Staying Yellowjacket, love my T/A 392...
Probably the next car I’d choose if I didn’t have a 5.0
I really want the 2018 Mustang, but the Challenger (having ridden in one) has so much more head room AND back seat leg room for hauling the kiddos around - which is a requirement at times.
+27Zangle very true!
Get the Challenger man, I guarantee you won't be disappointed. It may be bigger and heavier but it's far more practical, it's arguably safer in a crash, and if you want it to handle better get yourself some front and rear strut tower braces, subframe connectors, and lowering springs.
My wife's brother rolled his SRT8 a few years back at a high rate of speed. He walked away like nothing happened. It was totally destroyed with only the engine, trans, and some interior pieces salvageable.
27Zangle Seems like that's exactly what you'd want with kids in the car
27Zangle then what are you waiting for? Mopar just solved your next car
His videos never disappoint!!
+Ron Hickman Thanks!
Awesome. Love your videos. Your joke about the bass and "massaging seats" was a good one. haha Stay gold!
Love the color combo...and love V8 challengers..
Can't wait to get mine!!!!! I'm gonna go with the White/Black.....
Yeah ..... Drew such an awesome review buddy soo much power in that beast !
Jose
"Staying Gold"
Thanks Jose!
Damn sounded like a after market system, would ya say? Had some great bass
most definitely! Challengers always have done pretty well for me with their sound systems. The Shaker system in the new Mustang GT was pretty nice today too! haha next video tho!
Gold Pony damnnn with the little sneak peek lol! Shaker 1000 or 500.... I got a 500 and it's pretty damn good. Bass could be deeper. Clarity could be slightly better but solid! Look forward to the next video! Great work Andrew!
Looking forward to the Mustang GT review... Wednesday-ish release??
Hey, hey! ✌️
I have a 2018 392 Challenger with TA package. My dream car! I just found out I need a new battery rotors brake pads and set of tires and maybe blinker assembly! I think I'm being railroaded by the dealership.
This ain't jump change on this kind of car I just had a uconnect system put in and my head is spinning.
Interesting car. Nice review too like your style
+Luke W Thanks, appreciate it!
Great review. I would love that hill start assist with the manual. Good job!!!
Thanks!
The 'Trans-Am series' is an automobile racing series that was created in 1966 by Sports Car Club of America (SCCA) President John Bishop. Originally known as the Trans-American Sedan Championship, the name was changed to the Trans-American Championship for 1967 and henceforth.
Butler in Beaufort Sc has a 2021 ta 392 out front. Had to swing in and look at her. Wasnt a six speed and outside my price range at over 49 thousand. Sweet though.
Great review as always.
Thanks!
Because of you I bought a V-6 Mustang. Now I'm interested in this T/A.
Love these cars. Have you noticed any issues around the skip-shift in 1st/2nd ?
nickdangr Skip shift is normal on all 392 manual transmission engines and the Hellcat. It happens between 18-21 mph at around quarter throttle or a touch less. It will force you to 4th, but if you feel 2nd locked out, let up off the gas for a split second and 2nd will open up. 2 ways to cure it. Either accelerate a little harder from first to 2nd or buy the Speedlogix skip shift eliminator. It costs $20 and it takes away the skip shift forever. I had one installed on my scat pack. I had a shop put it on because its much easier to do when the car is on a lift, but you can do yourself on your driveway if you have small jack and mechanically knowledgeable. Good luck!
Matthew Stephan thanks!
You should do a video comparing this to the Camaro SS 1LE
Jose Perez TA will blow it away stock vs stock
love it! this is basically my car that i daily (i know... fuck of i enjoy it, which is what its meant for) but mine is an 8 speed and im in love gas prices suck but its the toll to be the king of the road (most of the time) those damn cats come out of no where
I just bought a 2017 t/a 392 yellow jacket. But my question is when I put my foot into it I'm hearing that hellcat "whine"? I bought it from someone but I doubt it has mods. Is this normal? This is my first American muscle
But...which would you rather have?...the T/A?...or the SRT?....cause.. ya know.. that Laguna Leather...(Which I will order in Sepia this December)
So good-looking and a badass car, but performance-wise is the same as any other 392. Although the new Challenger 1320 has performance components from the demon, and is the quickest naturally aspirated vehicle available on the market. In fact if I ever replaced my SRT8, I would definitely consider purchasing one
Too bad im 18 and i won't be able to get a new hemi because theyre killing hemis by 2020. The only way for me to even drive one is if a nice dealer would let me or if im lucky enough in the future to drive a used one
VIC on ur PC Killing hemis by 2020? Not going to happen. These cars are selling too well to abandon what works.
Robertas S. Well Tim left and the head of maserati is ready to give those that complained on how heavy and big the chargers and challengers are - and that's a lighter less muscley car
Just stfu.....😭😭😭😭 a less muscley car....
Who told you that your mom?
@@kennymoguel2056 no
What’s T/A for? Differ trim? Custom paint?
Beautiful car!
Can you please review the Mazda Miata rf?
Jason Voorhees Hey Jason, you don't fit in there! Get a horse.
Sportsbible!!! Lol
I don't like the white gauge. Too bad dodge doesn't offer different gauge style as an option.
Thanks for the brave review from Silent hill
Fun car.
Definitely 😃😃😃😃!!!!! Lol great review tho 💪🏾👌🏾👍🏾
Makes me sad about my RT
Can you make a 2017 Honda civic review?
Andy Garcia lol
It has air in takes in both head lights.
Dylan Donges one is functional. The other doesn't lead anywhere.
just an observation from an old mopar muscle car collector. doing a video of a test drive of the new TA Challenger in a rain storm is A COMPLETE WASTE OF TIME!!
I almost bought this, but they told me you can't wax the black paint. who buys a car u can't wax???
I'm guessing the black paint is more of a decal than paint, that's probably why you shouldn't wax it. I wouldn't let it stop me from buying this car. And besides, less waxing mean less maintenance/work for you.
Thats not the 392 Thats the regular T/A. 2018 TA Has 275s all Around and pattle shifters standard
Hmmm...get back to me when you test it on dry land.
супер
WHY IS EVERY TA REVIEWED A MANUAL?
richard button why would someone buy an automatic performance car???? Who cares watch the video
Come to Canada, Most of them are Automatic lol. You have to pay for the manual.
richard button k have a 8 speed auto its a beast
trex31 they're a lot of reasons people buy an automatic. I would list them for you but you're head is probably too far up your ass to understand
Scottie Odle okay name calling is cool. I understand that there are reasons for purchasing an auto such as drag racing, city commuting, and over all ease of operation. For me how ever, for me me not anyone else, i love being able to run the gears whether its a slow car or fast car. And dodge isnt known for making the best transmissions. Mine went boom on a stock cummins.
lard ass dodge...5.0 is better. go on a diet Fiat
How come the 5.0 slower 🤔
@Larry Niles I second that
NO REPLACEMENT FOR DISPLACEMENT
Hahaha! Jealous?
T/A was a track racer, Scatpack was a drag racer
Tezale Hall they both handled equally poorly.
Robertas S. Maybe, but at least they tried, look up history of the T/A for 1970 & The AAR Cuda smallblock 340, stiffer springs, and better tires, now the T/A from today vs scat pack hellcat inlets for air, different trim, optional 6 piston brakes thats about it! so the scat pack and the T/A are identical except anybody lookin at a T/A or Daytona Today is willing to pay more for nice features out of the box, The Scat Pack 4 bang for the buck buyers and cheapos, I know cause im one of them.
There a was also Sema T/A concept from a few years ago that got alot off ppl excited they removed the back seat added rollbar as well and side exhaust i believe, thats car ppl where hoping for but it wasn't in the cards for the current platform.
