You absolutely need to theft mod it so it doesn't get stolen without it being a massive hassle to the thieves. They're stolen in no time in broad daylight no matter where you are. A guy went to fill up at the gas station and coming back from the john it was all gone. I'd suggest covering up the vin number under the windshield too as they can program a key from that. A remote controlled kill switch is best because an accessible kill switch is no longer enough. they know all the spots. Remove the trans release as well.

[@volvo09]

I can't believe how many of these get stolen. Every time I see these in street takeovers I know it's somebody's baby that got stolen.

[@speedyme200]

I thought about an actual key style kill switch somewhere underneath the dash

[@devintiebout]

Also consider an OBDII relocation. They can't program a key if they don't know where the OBD port is! I have a manual scat pack. So I can't stop someone from popping the car into neutral, but I can stop then from programming a key and driving away with my car.

[@johnb4183]

Removable steering wheel.......

[@DesertStateNevada]

Yes, for example IGLA pin code system, compustar which can be paired with the IGLA, hide/relocate the OBD port, remote off switches, hide/disable the neutral release level, locking lug nuts for ALL lug nuts, and even tracking device detector. And I'd recommend MOPAR owners get all of these and not just pick one and think they're good. Overall this is like $3K but its the best investment anybody can make.

Lol the bogan joke made this Aussie laugh 🤣 Ans I can totally understand why Wizard made the choice... Vipers are a nightmare to get right when you fit panels from other cars. You don't want one that's been in an accident. They were all hand built and can cost a fortune in labour when you want them looking new again. Not to mention the sheer expense of those hand built panels. It takes a real top notch body shop to get them looking sharp and the people who have those skills do not come cheap. Things can get out of hand real fast and Wizard doesn't want the ongoing headaches. I can totally understand that.

I like Grimmes, saw over on Jake's channel first, and he's an honest straight up mechanic, and has helped a lot of people out. You drive whatever you like Wizard, it's your money. What's Mrs. Wizard's favorite car? I am working on a 1954 m38a1 jeep willys, has all the 24 volt wiring intact to go fording. My dr. told me i needed to be as active as i can, because i have progressive MS, causing muscle wasting on my entire left side. The muscles on my left, are half the size as on my right side, and i have weakness, numbness, and dexterity problems. I can't feel my hand, so it gets aggravating at time's doing stuff. I thank the Lord that i can still work on car's, and am not in a wheel chair. I have wanted an old army jeep for year's, but could never find a decent one i could afford near me. Luckily a guy bought the jeep from the governot in the 80's from an auction, and never road titled, which saved it from the salt killer here in Michigan. He drove it on his summer property up north, so it has 37,000 miles on it. He passed away, and i bought it for a good price from his daughter. I put two batteries in it, and all the electrical stuff work's, and it cranks real smooth. I took the carb off and rebuilt it, but it was really clean, and i could have run it. I am putting in new ignition parts, and making sure everything is good before i fire it up. I like the video's you do of the scammers, there are a lot out there, and you seem to be honest and fair to the people who come to you. It's unfortunate that people who don't know anything about car's buy stuff without having it checked out. I worked at a Chrysler dealership back in the early 90's, and the lease vehicle's that got turned in without ever having oil changes was crazy. The dgi car's will be destroyed from that now. I would never buy a leased vehicle unless there were legit service record's. People seem to have less of a conscience than ten or so year's ago. Keep on driving what you like, and billing Tyler for tearing up car's for you to fix lol. G-d bless from a lady in Michigan.

Congratulations on picking up probably the last true American touring sedan! They are fantastic cars! Why everybody wants to go to a front wheel drive based eco-box with a battery is beyond me! My wife picked that color for my scat packChallenger! I love the color. I love the cars. That car is a keeper because you can’t buy anything like that anymore. You could’ve purchased a Chrysler 300 but you wouldn’t get the 392! Congratulations Mr. Wizard on pulling a rabbit right out of that hat!! Wishing you all the best!

[@DL-ry3qg]

lol! Glad you like it but… it will be junk in 5 years if you drive it

[@santiagotorres9653]

Say what you want, but it’s still a downgrade coming from the viper

[@ForTehNguyen]

older vipers are kind of a pita to own, very difficult to find parts, just has typical old car problems. $2500 windshield if you need a replacement, etc.

[@inse728]

Who cares… man is happy thats all that matters.

[@guitarguymi]

How so? Present your argument instead of just saying things.

[@cali2468]

​@@guitarguymiIf you have to ask why a Viper is better than a 4500lb "one trick pony" which used the same chassis for roughly 15 years you don't deserve an answer

[@JCIIIBULLET]

This coming from someone who has probably never owned or even sat in a Dodge Viper🤔😂

[@BigJoe2.0]

Bought my scat pack used last year with 54k miles. I got headers and tuning done soon after, about 4k miles later its still going strong!

Hey, Car Wizard congrats to being on TV! I was bouncing up and down in my seat "Wow it's Car Wizard getting 'big ink'!". Glad you're getting the recognition you deserve.

[@fivevenomstyle6337]

We rented a Charger GT, it had a Trac pack something, 300 hp I think. Took a trip up to Leavenworth, WA. I enjoyed it immensely, it was very nice.

[@DoctorHemi]

I have a 2021 Challenger Scat Pack w/6-spd manual trans (see icon photo) and I just love it. Like you, I've owned a lot of cool cars over the years, but I said exactly the same thing. "Of all the cars I've owned, this one is my favorite." That 392 has more torque than GM's LS7 (which is a 427).

[@johnkendrick7304]

Man, I absolutely love that car! And I'm a car guy from way back. Sweet ride

[@volvo09]

I would love to have one

[@jamesdelong6401]

Love how the factory made that spot out for the speaker. Can't wait to hear it

[@davidp5229]

Your hood cred just went up.

[@jonmeek3879]

Thank you for the continued updates on the Dodge. Very much appreciated.

[@endall39]

I'm totally down for an audio upgrade series! I like the space saving idea, but I have to say I'm not so sure about the free-air subwoofer setup you're talking about. If you want to keep the sub where that hole is, I'd have him build a wide, shallow box (of the right displacement) and a shallow design subwoofer. Then, use a dense foam ring between the back deck hole and the speaker. also, sound deaden the crap out of that back deck. Lastly, the best minimum aftermarket upgrade is to do what you're doing, plus install a four channel amp with two channels bridged to the sub, and 75-100 watts each of the upgraded front speakers. Use an Audio Control LC2i to convert the speaker level signal rather than the unit you showed. That will give you a clip indicator, more bass control, and better signal input control . Rock on!!!

[@volvo09]

He just wants a radio upgrade. It doesn't need to "bang"

[@whitef67]

I have been using V1 Gen2 for years. Add a smartphone app for full control. Best detector setup.

[@NVRAMboi]

GRIMES!!1!! FTW with the wicked sense of humor. Wizard, I can already tell it will be pointless for me say that this beauty needs no vinyl decals (even ones for funny/obscure humor). The look of this car resides on it's unmodified simplicity and direct presentation AS IS. Thanks Wizard. Fun video. PS: Bonus points for the Mustang jokes.

[@i_Nihil_i]

That happened when I got my SLK. Driving on i70 at 80 was a dream

[@Roddy451]

Valentine 1-Gen 2 owner here. It is a very good detector when combined with the JBV1 android app. The next option is the V1 Driver app for iPhone. Even when using the JBV1 app, it can get a bit hyperactive around shopping centers. Uniden may offer a good option that will have GPS built-in but I can't remember the model. As for Australia, John Cadogan pronounces it "Astraya".

[@kbrown1350]

Those are great cars but their association with those that you describe is exactly why normal people no longer want them.

[@aaronbrodrik6764]

Been watching your channel for years, I recently bought a charger, didn't expect you to get one! Thought you may say theyre unreliable. I love my charger!

[@JStryker7]

It doesn’t need more power, but it definitely does need a massive supercharger

[@Whatchamawhozit]

I have a last call 2023 RT Blacktop Edition in Sublime Green, it has every toy except the sunroof (which i would never use) and the Harmon Kardon audio system. I was thinkiing of upgrading my Alpine and you just gave me some ideas... thank you. and Yes, like you, I love my Charger, however, she is a garage queen/Driveway ornament. Had her 9 months and she only has 1700 miles on the clock. NGL I alsohave a 15 Grand Cherokee Summit Hemi and I LOVE driving that and it is my daily, 9 years and a 173700 miles later and she is still going... So far I only have done a control arm, sway bar, and recently replaced the transmission with a unit with only 32k miles on it. The old 172k mile trans was jolting between 1st and 2nd, it still drove fine but that 1st to 2nd shift was harsh unless I used the manual mode and paddle shifters... I figured just replace the trans and be done with it.

[@Danny508pr1]

have my Daytona 392 now for 6 Years no issues. love it.... only 42k miles

[@benjohannsen7208]

The dude that rocks a Dart talking smack on a 392 😂😂

[@TheSlugger76]

Love the color!! Did they lower the front? Can’t wait to get a camera ride in car

[@SuperMcgenius]

Regarding back shelf, subwoofer, stiffening the back shelf with some sort of brace and a Dampening material will improve response and punch of bass.

[@Torquematterz]

It's so funny to me that the Wizard has the two biggest take over cars, a G35 and a 392 lmfaoo

[@chrisschultz6129]

The cracked windshield is quite common on newer dodges; it’s believed to be due to improper assembly (missing bonding) resulting in excess vibration which results in broken windshields.

I have a dark maroon one, same year, only 41000 miles on it.
