5 things that SHOCKED me in Owning a Dodge Challenger RT

[@ryderkick3899]

I have a 2019 Dodge Challenger R/T Hemi, the car is intimidating looking. A lot of people tend to not be interested in racing something that looks fast and intimidating. I said A lot, not all. For the record.

[@twiceonsundays]

I have the same experience! Most people cower away from V8 Challengers in general because they're not quite sure what kind of power you have. Non-Challenger owners don't really know the difference between a 5.7, a 6.4, and a 6.1. They just know by the sound that it's a V8 and it looks mean. For all they know, it could be a Hellcat.

[@soletakenrt2920]

I agree challenger is actually very good in the winter with proper tires

[@jaimebeltran6783]

What tires do you recommend for the winter because I have a dodge challenger R/T but winter is coming soon and I want to be ready

[@mortonzhu4537]

Getting my new rt this Wednesday

[@kingkamvoty]

My favorite thing about it is when I’m in the fast lane on the highway and everyone just get out of my way lol

[@lambjack1]

Good video Dude. I'm seriously contemplating one and I'm 6'2" also.

[@jasonlee5368]

Mexico has a CRAZY race scene

[@luke4010]

Thank u so much for this video! You always give the best info on your vehicles and experiences with them. Its super helpful!!

[@russbrittain4651]

Sounds really good love the color very sharp looking car

[@WRuiz10768]

I got my R/T last week. Fell in love with it when I drove the SXT (a loaner). It's slightly bigger than the Grand Cherokee that I traded in.

[@djz3bra]

Your rt vs a cammed ram would’ve been a great match lol, granted he has a cam, it’s still a ram, a big ass truck, you would’ve had aerodynamic advantage. That’d be interesting for sure

[@Smokebox_345]

I’ve noticed that with my rt , if your first at a light most people will let you go first or stay back a little

[@jondoe4444]

I’m also in the Buffalo NY area my challenger was a beast in the snow this past winter

[@S4MHAIN_YT]

That’s great to hear lmao, I’m very close to that area and am picking up my 2016 RT plus tomorrow!

[@kingmb]

Purple is the best. Plum Crazy is he perfect shade of purple and my wife agrees. I too have been searching for plum crazy Challengers and I haven't come across any used 17-19's, and very few new ones either 18's or 19's, and even fewer still with the options I want. I worry about the size of the challenger and I've been concerned too with driving it down my skinnier street and trying to fit it in parking spaces.

[@OmegaGreedAK47]

Yeah the sheer size was something I had to get used too, but once you do it's not so bad.

[@XoeCox]

I’m in Texas in a place that does not snow much at all. It may snow here once every three years. When it snows or we have ice on the road our whole city shuts down. I mean no school, work or anything. I can’t imagine driving in snow.

[@argeliocornejo3262]

Snow where am at every year Amarillo Texas home boy just saying

[@dychejs]

Thanks for the review. Am considering the RT but might go V6. Still debating. Love the info on rear wheel drive btw. I grew up in Montana and everyone that had rear wheel drive just drove in the snow like everyone else. No one complained! You just get in your car and drive no matter what. :)

[@AVR-hf1rl]

I had a sxt for 3 yrs loved it but there's nothing like the sound of a v8

[@AVR-hf1rl]

I did end up getting an R/T

[@dychejs]

AVR 1961 How did the R/T compare with the SXT?

[@AVR-hf1rl]

@@dychejs Well they are the same except for the motor if your not looking for the sound of a v-8 I would go with the v-6. The v-6 is much softer ride v-8 is much harder. what I would say to do is rent them for a day that will tell you what to do

[@grsslgcy32]

I live in Montana Rn Lol and I drive a SXT charger I love it, but I wish for the RT

[@gardemisegades7299]

My scat pak gets 24 mpgon hwy, shaker hood well worth extra cash as is biger tire and brake package, my car is only one ive ever seen with factory hood pins, why people dont order pins ? Never have seen 1 at a dealer with . Got mine in gomango orange the black and orange color contrast is killer

[@deplorable7575]

What you you estimate you mpgs while driving a steady 75 mph. And do you have manual or automatic. Thanks

[@kd-jj1rn]

That has to suck driving your beautiful Challenger through the salt covered roads, it's understandable most people don't have the choice I'm in a unique situation where I bought a challenger and kept my Volkswagen due to the fact that would not receive much of a trade-in deal decided to keep it as a beater car and drive it in the bad weather, but great video good content!

[@nick5965]

I notice the same things as well I live in upstate NY as well

[@z3lasandur]

Thank you my friend 😊

[@jimmydasilva467]

What’s some good winter tires? My scat pack has the stock tires on and I’m going to using it in the wintet

[@OmegaGreedAK47]

I did a video a while ago on the Atturo AZ850 tires. I liked them on the challenger. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iXutZ4imoZKjgrs

[@MohsinexploresCanada]

I have ordered a 2022 RT. And I hate how it looks exactly the same as GT. I would prefer to have it look different from the V6

[@srtmetal7647]

Small world. I'm close to buffalo and shopping for a Challenger lol

[@deadlyredly]

im a Wrangler Challenger guy too !!!!

[@davidhubbard7573]

they DONT the sxt doesn't say hemi on it anywhere

[@PPHerman]

I rented a V6 challenger… it cost $60 to fill up the tank here in NY-metro area…. It’s a great car. But I can’t see nothing out the back window. Not safe for that reason tbh.

[@malachigrey4895]

Lol my rear view fell off and I never bothered putting it back up

[@Sumbuddysumwhere]

People love to pull in front of mine in a hurry so they can drive 5 under the speed limit. That is only half as annoying as all the fart cannon exhaust hondas.

[@davidhubbard7573]

you looking for compliments oh you a baller in other words

[@reginalddyson9716]

20 MPG in an R/T? Tuning? Best I could get was 14.

[@tshearn624]

I have a 2015 RT with manual 6 speed and everyday use I average 24mpg.

[@Kauffman578]

I guess the rt has a ticking noise is that a recall?

[@timnevils5414]

Honda civics know they stand no chance against a Challenger

[@paulmarclalonde3834]

Most cars don’t Nevemind a 110hp ricer

[@xUltimatexInstinctx]

@@paulmarclalonde3834 owning a civic doesn't make you a ricer. Have you seen a type R? They're no joke!

[@davidhubbard7573]

dude your car sounds like mine and its a rt challenger 6 speed i hate automatics

[@AVR-hf1rl]

I did a mid muffler delete much louder

[@davidhubbard7573]

its more aggressive looking
