A bit of US trivia: that car is set up for use in California. You can tell because one of the red lights on front does not flash.
Interesting, any reason for that..?
@@TestGearJunkie. I think it goes back to the earliest police cars that had one big red light on front and that was it. The law should probably be updated.
@@01cthompsonYeah, could be. To be honest the mere thought of forward facing red lights is alien to me, we have red lights on UK police cars and other emergency vehicles now, but they're only rearward facing.
@@TestGearJunkie. In the US each state can have their own laws regarding the lights. In my state of Connecticut you must yield to red lights on emergency vehicles, but not blue.
@@01cthompsonThat's weird. Here, it's blue lights always, red is mainly only used on emergency vehicles after they have stopped at an incident, I can't recall ever having seen flashing reds on the move, but I could be wrong. But one rule is paramount, red must never be shown towards the front of a vehicle.
This is the actual car I took on my wedding day, a surprise my wife had organised for me.
I had the pleasure of having Chris as my driver so I can say first hand that the car is a monster and a masterpiece.
Fantastic start to a fantastic day so thank you Chris
We need these in the UK,they look very cool.
They are awesome! I drive one here in the United States!
I’m Canadian and hearing him call the charger ginormous is very funny. The local cops here hate the chargers because they say they’re too small and hard to get into because of how low they are. They prefer the FPIU but hey I guess it’s all about perspective.
Or...maybe your donut eatn popos can ease your on the donuts. It's a very big car
Good to see you, Ben! Looking forward to this one!! And now seen it. And loved it! Amazed that you can actually hire the American police car in the UK.
A real US police Charger would is equipped a little different than this one. As you mentioned, there would be a partition between the front and rear seat but there would also be no gun rack between the front seats, the back seat would be molded plastic to make cleanup easier, and there would be a laptop PC pretty much in place of the two walkie talkies. The way the one show is equipped would be more consistent with an unmarked or detective vehicle. Also, only the police package Chargers have the shifter on the column, the rest have it on the console. It's done this way so that an aftermarket console can be fitted for all of their equipment without having to account for a shifter. It also keeps the officer's hand closer to the steering wheel and the hand held radio mic closer to their mouth if they need to use it while turning the vehicle around.
We use this car in the US quite a lot in the States that have long roads, and forever winding Interstate exits. The 270 brake horsepower, 400 bhp motor is designed t o take massive abuse, and MASSIVE DAMAGE. I have seen plenty of these Chargers take hits to the engine and keep on chugging(Bullets, that is)...
I'm loving that car sending much love and hugs to you and the family ❤❤🤗🤗🚔🚔
I moved to the states a few years back and this was the first vehicle i bought but it has the 6.2 engine..lookswise its a beast and in a straight line its mental .. if only it could go round corners like a bmw m3 😂
Only 5.8 0-60. BMW police cars in the form of a 3 litre diesel are faster than this.
Haha I know it's crazy.. my 6.2 did it in just under 4.. the car is heavy as hell so it didn't corner so well
That model Dodge ceased production in 2023, it was the last four door sedan police car of any make.
US Police now use mainly Ford and Chevrolet SUVs or light trucks.
The SUVs are as fast as the sedans, and carry more equipment.
I rented a V6 Charger once and that also was seriously fast. Nice car!
Did you undertake there Ben? Love the content and love seeing you hopefully we'll ❣️
Good to see my valeting van in the background. If you get chance visit Ace American autos.
If you do a deep dive into this plaform’s ancestry you will find a Mercedes E-class in the family tree
Would love to see ya hop across the pond and do some videos there!
Only thing missing is the laptop computer mount. Otherwise, pretty close to what we got overhere.
That’s a beautiful vehicle
I still prefer the explorer interceptors. They teach us to keep it in low gear mode when running code.
Ben great video lovely car obviously US rules are different for police 🚔🚓
Good review.
Wish i could find the video he’s talking about where they push a greyhound bus up the hill
I’ve seen that combination of red and blue lights on Sussex Police cars. Only a couple of times, definitely seen it though.
The red light in the light bar will be on the back, not the front.
It’s actually an offence to display a red light to the front of a vehicle.
Probably blue and Amber, they use them at Gatwick Airport for use Airside
Ive seen a Poice charger.in Wakefield
5:50 I always though Jason Bourne deliberately jumped into a police Chevy Impala in Bourne Ultimatum because it's a tougher car knowing he'll be crashed into A LOT!
Off topic: What is that SUV in the background by the building? It looks like an 80s Chevy S10 Blazer. Or, maybe a Hurricane. But, the turn signal on the quarter panel isn't correct. The grill doesn't look quite right either. I had an S10 and it was one of the best vehicles I ever owned.
GMC typhoon
@@danieldoran199 Thanks. I knew it was some kind of storm. I never saw one in person.
JUST OFF A650 MORLEY. GO PAST ALL THE TIME ON WAY TO M65.
Nice one Ben is this a HEMI like the State Troopers use or just a normal bog standard V8?
Yes, although the civilian and pursuit 5.7L HEMIs are both the same. The police package cars could also be optioned with a 3.6L V6
@@madmatt2024 nice
What i like about the american cars is the fact they're disposable and replaceable and they are mean over here in the mid 00s we had diesel astras that would get left by someone in a corsa in the states you had new shaped chargers and what was left of the crown vic fleet but your bog standard crook in a iroc z couldnt out run them 😂 i know we've got budget cuts but there was a time bens old units used to have scoobs and evos
how do you make so little power out of a V8 ?!
God knows
If this is the place in batley Leeds, there’s some right cars there 🫡
Batley is not in Leeds .
It is located at Gildersome next to the roundabout that takes you to the M621 then onto the M62.
Gildersome is roughly 1 mile from Morley and both are under the Leeds postcode of LS27.
@@gazza9463 yeah there’s the ikea at other side of motorway, driven past it before when filling up at bp
what year model is this
16 I think
@@BenPearson1965 makes sense. i only ask because the chargers are only supposed to come as V8 AWD between 15-20 so to find one newer would be shocking
11/10 for the trump impression 😎
0:39 that tyre looks a bit low on the inner edge.... oh the irony
Donald B Pearson for president
It's weird seeing you drive on the left side of the car.
I do that all the time, I've got an imported Buick Encore..!
Ben I love your stuff but you should know rolling around in a car, even a police car with RIFs in plain view is silly mate
Those southern boys have Chargers with even more hp that can embarrass State Troopers.I think they have bootleggers DNA only the cargo has changed.
How far can this baby go on one tank of fuel?
5 miles ha ha
All police are over resourced these days
They're not over resourced when you need them though are they? dumb ass
I didn't realise that they were All Wheel Drive
180 my ass…. You would be lucky to hit 150!! Dodge claims 360-390 bhp but they over rate their power. They NEVER would do 3-400,000 miles that the Ford could do.
