I just love this car for so many reasons. It's big, obnoxious, and powerful. It just screams 'Merica.

[mainscreen]

the reason i would buy this car is mainly for the looks and power, i dont care which other cars are faster, but they dont beat the classic look of the challenger

Love watching him lose his mind when going WOT in every video. Great car, thanks for the vid.

[raymondbillups]

His face after he floored it, made my day. I could imagine his excitement after that.

I have a scat pack that I use as a daily driver 8 miles each day it is absolutely the best part of my day hearing that exhaust upon cold start I know other cars are faster but a 392 hemi is what I need

Reaction to the pull, priceless Matt....lol Great review on the sweet spot in Challenger line up. The 1392s are sick on the street, and the dragstrip, Scavenger 1320 has won championships with his.

Something else worth noting that you couldn't know; it's very safe. I'm a medic & firefighter, & I've responded to a few wrecks with challengers and they resist intrusion into the passenger compartment very well.
I also have personal experience- in 2011 in my wife's SE I got lightly T-bone at an intersection I was transiting when somebody jumped the light. No injury, light damage to the passenger door and the airbag deployed. October 2022 my SRT8 got T-bond and totaled. The vehicle that got me right on the beep pillar was traveling at highway speed as I was accelerating from a stop. If I had been on duty when that tune dropped I would've expected the driver of the vehicle that was struck to be dead or have severe injuries. thanks to modern engineering the driver that hit me was just shook up and had a couple of minor bruises, I had to be extricated but the lateral/transverse structural member designed to resist intrusion did its job extremely well. The driver door was shoved in about 10 cm which forced my elbow to break a few ribs, and the lateral energy transfer caused for pelvic fractures. The energy of a little over a ton of a mass traveling at highway speed also caused coup & counter coup resulting in a minor subdural haematoma. Despite the fractures and the brain bruise I was out of the hospital in a couple of days!

😁 That red one is OK, but it doesn't stand out like my yellow with the bumblebee stripe! Do you know when you come out of the store and you can't remember where you parked? *_I don't have that problem!_* 😂 and counter crew I was out of the hospital in a couple of days!

I love how you can watch any Scatpack video on YouTube and everyone has the same reaction when they mash the throttle. Pure joy.

"very big, beefy, feels great in your hand" that's what she said

I watched this video like 3 times before I pulled the trigger on my Scatpack, one thing I cant tell you is the car gets really good gas mileage on the highway I took mine in a 1000 miles trip and it got 29 mpg and the car is very VERY comfortable. The other thing is, Matt isn't joking about those ticket pockets. It does 0-speeding ticket in about 5 seconds so get ready to have the judge tell you he is already bored of seeing you in court tryinf to dismiss tickets.

[MrSlowestD]

Yeah, Dodge is really kickin ass with this car. Def. stays true to the muscle car roots, unlike the mustang/camaro. Very cool car, I like that they're in their own little place, not the dick waving sports car competition of the other 2.

Money shot! 8:27 ; P So which one do you like better, the shaker hood Hemi with leather, or this 6.4L?

[HarryTwatter]

Can't believe they put 245's on this car. That would be the first upgrade for me.

[stokes]

U can get blind spot monitoring with the technology package which also includes rear cross traffic alert, and adaptive cruise control

Good review Matt, I lost it when you nailed the throttle the first time and lit up the tires hahaha! These cars are so fun, I have a 2015 Scat Pack Shaker and I absolutely love it. Mine is the manual and it's so much fun to shift with that 392 HEMI roaring under the hood. Not sure if you're aware but you can get leather and perforated suede seats in the Scat Pack if you option the Scat Pack appearance group which adds a bunch of extra cool touches to the car. Cloth seats are standard. In regards to pricing, one thing to consider when comparing it to the Mustang and Camaro is that it's a larger car so it makes sense that it's more expensive. I know both of them handle better than the Challenger due to being smaller and lighter but like you said in the video, the Challenger is by far the most useable car out of all of them. Mine is pretty well loaded and cost $49k which sounds like a lot at nearly the price of the SRT, but he Shaker is a $4, 500 option and I don't have the Technology group or the automatic trans. The Shaker is worth every penny haha. The size does take some getting used to but it just has such a great old school muscle car feel to it. One way to improve the handling is the put a strut tower bar in it, I did and it made a big difference in the responsiveness of the steering. It's not a canyon carver, but it definitely feels more eager around turns. Check out my videos of it!

that leaf bothers me in the rolling shots lol

[gkoli]

Your videos are the best! Your excited always brings a smile to my fave and your videos are on point! Thank you for all the hard work you do on your vids

I had an opportunity to drive 2015 challenger v6 for just over a month while my 16 WRX was in the shop. My conclusion was it takes time to get used to, by the end of second week I didn't mind the blind spots, automatic transmission is little rough in manual mode, v6 was very impressive as far as performance and fuel economy hwy driving was well over 34mpg. Great infotainment system, not a single time I had to manually reconnect my phone, WRX always drops my connection. Overall it's a great car, I will definitely consider this after my lease is up.

8:26 This, ladies and gentlemen, is one of the top three reasons we love muscle cars: *_SMILES PER GALLON!_* 😁
The other two reasons are the sound, and the cachet. Being able to tap the loud pedal and make annoying people disappear behind you is pretty important too.
