I've owned Mustangs for nearly 20 years...I'm very happy with my 21 Scat...Dodge is definately a force to be respected.

Hey dude, you missed a few things: The T/A was a package on the Highline, much like the A66 340 package (it would be an R/T option in '71), it carried a JH23 prefix, and 1411 T/As came in automatic. That fourth trim level was the Jx29 Special Edition! In '71, the Deputy was rumored to have its own vin trim level, the JL21, I've never seen one. The '72-'74 cars also got their taillights from the Diamante show car. Well done, my dude!

Thank you for all the time and effort it took to make such an outstanding video. I personally am a Mopar or no car man. My family only owned Chrysler vehicles so I was literally born into them. I like the way you addressed the short comings when it was warranted and praised it when it was deserved. It was truly a honest video about one of the most iconic cars made. Thank you sir, job well done.

Fantastic video man! I just bought a '21 Scat Pack Widebody (my first new car in 26 years of driving), and it was great to learn a bit of its history. As a lifelong gearhead, I knew the Challenger's broad strokes, but you definitely filled in the details with the Ken Burns treatment here. I sure appreciate what must have been the ton of work that went into this.

This video was very well crafted, narrated, and put together. I remember over the course of last year I was searching for my dream car (Dodge Challenger RT) during the last call and I would ultimately come back to this video over and over again just for fun as well as for comfort. I succeeded my mission last July (2023) and I must say this video really fueled my inspiration even more along the way. To this very day I still watch it and any content you put out I ultimately vow to support, even the NBA stuff which is also another one of my passions. Thank you for your continuous inspiration and knowledge. Looking forward to all of your work of the future. 👑 Thank you !

Wow! Amazing video, man! One thing I want to add is regarding the yellow turn signal / daytime running lamps and how you feel they look wrong. I really respect your opinion but want to add that most of us Challenger owners actually love them as we can see our fellow owners coming at us from far away, and also in the 2016 and up it’s still there along with the halo. You can turn them on or off depending on your personal preference. Again, really great video, man!

Addendum: The next step by Dodge was made: The *RAM TRX...* ...I *love* these guys at Dodge!

This is an EXCELLENT video! I've been a MOPAR man since I was a kid, having a huge crush on Challengers in high school when Cudas were more popular. I always thought the Challenger had sexier lines, and the snorkel scoops was the shit! Late 70s early 80s you could find them for about $500. to $800. in good running condition. I think the yellow turn signal "head lights" may be a nod to us old school guys. We had no neon or LED, just yellow fog lights. Long before neon came along, we'd mount yellow fog lights behind grill, or under grill facing the ground to light the road like a yellow "red carpet". I also made custom "shades" or black out light covers for any car. I was given a not running 67 Barracuda for repairing an elderly woman's Mercury wagon in my 20s! Also love Dodge trucks. Great video, thanks for keeping music tasteful and lower volume than your voice, some people don't know if they want to be a DJ, or talk about the subject. Please do one, if you have not already, on AMC: JAVELIN, AMX, SRAMBLER, and AMC/JEEP EAGLE WAGON and 4X4 AMX. And if possible, all HURST cars, like early 70s Pontiac Gran Prix, 75 Oldsmobile Cutlass, and all others. THANK YOU!

I have a 2017 Challenger T/A in contusion blue. It's one of only 33 I believe. Something like 60 contusions blue T/A's were produced and it's a 2017 only color.

The reintroduction of the Challenger is a Cuda. Except for 2 elements. The Side Body line & the dual hood scoop hood. Other than that it's a Cuda particularly because the hood has a header panel. Even the rear of the car looks more like a Cuda than a Challenger

Your modern V-6 would have smoked a stock 340 from the 70's and with the AC blasting and an automatic transmission and you still would not spill one drop of your coffee from the built in cup holders. It also will get upper 20's on the highway. Try that back in 73.

Great production!!! Well written and presented. You should update the video including the last call editions and their back stories. Also about Stelantis and their electrification strategy, common platforms and powerunits and the future of Dodge and Challenger name plate. Again, excellent video. 👌

Sadly, the only Challenger I ever owned was an '83. On paper, if should have been a good little car. (Hardtop coupe body, 2.6L OHC engine, 5 speed manual, rear wheel drive, 4 wheel disk brakes) I think they called it a Challenger because it was such a challenge to keep it running...lol

Great video , I am a muscle car guy, Mopar first. Challenger is cool. The Demon is a Monster when it comes to Drag Racing Dodge knows more than anyone else, as well as Ford and Chevrolet. The Euro and Japanese manufacturers have no history in Drag Racing

Good job fam. I saw 1 hr video length, and said this can't be the typical bs on here where the uploader disguises their lack of knowledge with music and flashy edits. I was not disappointed. Keep it up.

Those of us that were car guys in the 60s and 70s had access to these great cars when they were used and cheap. Mine were a Charger and 70 Mark Donohue Javelin...the car I most regret selling. But back then they weren't so valuable.
