Yea, I think Chargers and Challengers are the cheapest in Detroit, in comparison to other Cities across the Nation. You can get a Scat Pack and RT in Michigan for like 30k-35k which is quite a bit cheaper for what those trims normally run. I thought they were giving’em out free at one point I saw so many 😂
A lot of my friends in New Orleans wanted a scat pack but none of us could afford one. Somebody’s crazy cousin from Detroit said he knew how to get them way cheaper and he proved it. Insane that kinda opportunity still exists in the market
I own a 2022 challenger scat pack. The line "he gets home later than intended, because he loses himself in the drive" has happened to me so many times and I never even acknowledged it until now. I felt it so much it brought a tear to my eye. Sometimes you just really need it.

Well, you could back up an institution and not be 100% in line with what they think, plus at the end of the day, the cops enforce the law, the lawmakers are the ones that aprove or disaprove on said law.
@@s.alliende3524 enforcing immoral laws makes you every bit as complicit. Without cops to blindly enforce, corrupt politicians would have no power. Either cops are supposed to exercise judgement in their duties or they're mindless robots who will enforce all laws without question. You can't have it both ways. Police should just enforce any law no matter how reprehensible it is and just blame the politicians? Curious where you draw the line between "jUsT dOiNg tHer jErBs" and being oath-breakers, enemies of freedom.
@@GridIndustries i dont think i get your point could you be a little clearer? One thing, cops arent there to be the judges (propper judges i mean), they can only respond within the boundaries of the law, if the law says A, they must enforce A, but naturally, there is always a cop who would let some things slide, or there is always the choice to leave the force if you find ot to be corrupt or not to your liking, or say against your ideals.
2drs suck, honestly. They are an absolute pain in a parking lot even if you never use the back seats. They don’t look any better anymore due to how high the belt lines have got for rollover protection and how aerodynamic sedans are now. Coupes other than dedicated sports cars don’t mean anything to most people anymore. You might as well be asking why nobody offers a landau roof or t tops anymore.

Seems like it would be a bit boring to me. It’s not manual. It looks the same as every other regular Charger unless you really focus. It’s not a two door coupe and it doesn’t have a cool PoV hood view like say, the Viper. It has a ton of power but it’s legally unusable for the most part. At least when you’re risking your life/license in a Viper or foreign exotic you get a unique look sound... this just sounds like another American pushrod V8. It’s not bad, but when you factor in the high upfront cost and high fuel consumption, it doesn’t seem like it would be warranted to get more than the 5.7 Charger. Same look, sound, interior... They don’t turn my head when they roll by.
@@jared2880 I mean it’s just personal taste/opinion but I’ve driven the 5.7 and it’s a freakin dog compared to the 392. As far as sound is concerned it’s just a nasty big v8 that is the last of its kind, and with an exhaust setup it sounds so much meaner. It’s a very usable car if you get bigger tires on it which it desperately needs just like the hellcat. Great brakes, reliable engine and yes gas mileage is not great but who tf enjoys cars and thinks about gas mileage? Pretty counter intuitive, since most cars will get shit gas mileage when you drive them with any kind of passion.
@@jared2880 And as far as “exotics” a viper wouldn’t be in that category since it’s domestic and literally a dodge....but I get what you mean. Vipers are definitely more driver focused and Manual only. But they’re not sedans so kind of a different purpose. But my brother worked for a Ferrari dealer here in San Antonio TX, and has driven pretty much every exotic there is to drive. If all you want is image and a hole to throw your money into sure buy a Ferrari 488 or Lamborghini huracan, be my guest but those are cars for posers and are boring asf after about 5 minutes. Not to mention you look like an asshole 24/7 in them.
@@Blazerghost For cars the definition of "exotic" is not set in stone, but a car being domestic alone does not make it not "exotic". I consider the Alfa Romeo 4C to be exotic, but a power addict might discount it due to it only producing ~240 HP. To me the Viper's limited production, focus of purpose, design influence (help from Lamborghini w/engine), and it being one of the few American sports cars with 10 cylinders make it exotic to me. It's not "regular', or something you see often, or ever. On your last point about being a poser and having an image and a hole to throw money into, I consider most people with a Scat Pack Charger to be in line with that description- if it means not using the car for its "intended purpose". The purpose of the SP Charger is to do run after run on the drag strip up to 175 MPH... I bet 9/10 people don't take this to a drag strip or ever go past 130. These also take a pretty penny to buy and daily driving this would absolutely bleed you out of gas money.

On your last point about being a poser and having an image and a hole to throw money into, I consider most people with a Scat Pack Charger to be in line with that description- if it means not using the car for its "intended purpose". The purpose of the SP Charger is to do run after run on the drag strip up to 175 MPH... I bet 9/10 people don't take this to a drag strip or ever go past 130. These also take a pretty penny to buy and daily driving this would absolutely bleed you out of gas money.
@@jared2880 I mean have you driven a 392 or hellcat?
Marc Alaimo did such an excellent job portraying Gul Dukat in DS9 that they screwed up their entire last season over it.
DS9 held up way better than TNG and I really appreciated the reference
DS9 is best trek
@@DarthBane22 I only saw ds9 about half way though when it first aired. I didn't really remember anything about the Dominion War, or the fact that it went on for The Entire Series.
@@robertshelton3796 a while ago I started rewatching the Trek shows with my wife (except for TOS). By episode 3 of TNG the phase "roving rape gangs" is used for the second time. I didn't remember the show I watched after CBS Sunday Morning with Charles Corralt being so Brutal.
(I was just a child!!)
I am literally in the middle of watching DS9 so that end bit is just... mmm yes
Holy shit, that DS9 reference at the end got me
“The color, it’s called Hell Raisin”. Just perfect lol
Ok, love Roman's Star Trek rant at the end
it does come with a manual. One in the screen and the other is a book. But many scat owners cant read
Scat Pack Fiat Stepchild:
You made it, self. You got the nice house and the cool car. You got the cute wifey and the obedient kid and they have the latest iphone and the latest playstation. Your friends all acknowledge you got your shit together. Why aren't you happy like you were when you were 19, drinking heaven hill and sunny D in a knockoff solo cup and playing black ops 2 on your roomie's 360? Why does 2013 still feel like yesterday?
Not funny, not owned by fiat anymore
@@PlutoTheLad
1 Fiat Chrysler ended January 2021
2 because it was bought by Stellantis, which now owns both brands.
@@notablediscomfort Eh, not really. Stellantis didn't buy anything - it's more like Fiat Chrysler didn't want to upset the French by admitting they bought up PSA, so came up with the "Stellantis" name for the newly merged companies.
I love this comment
@@markmiller3279 I really wish that name wasn't so sterile. Stellantis sounds like an anxiety or sleeping drug. At least get something like Atlantic Motors, give it sort of a 20s vibe. Yeah, it's already registered. Buy the name. It's just some dealer in Georgia, USA, how expensive would it be?
The Deep Space Nine reference at the end...yeah... validated.
why am i up at 6 am, and why is there a new regularcars video waiting for me?
Because work lol
Worked as a lot boy for a summer had two of these there and they were by FAR my favorite ones to drive
I LOVE the Gul Dukat DS9 reference at the end! I knew you guys had class, not only Star Trek but REALLY GOOD Star Trek! I’m at Season 5 of watching the DS9 series for the millionth time, DS9 was amazing, I wish we got DS9 movies or just more Trek, Enterprise was getting decent when they canceled it. Those... things... that have Trek in their names is NOT Star Trek, at all.
Props for the Gul Dukat outro
That was so nice of Goofy to lend Mr Regular his Scat Pack
I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one on a DS9 binge.
The 2020 Dodge Charger Poop Missile
"...appreciation of the occupation of Bajor..."
More beautiful lines were never spoken lol
"is there a single statue of me on Bajor ?" "I would guess not "
Dodge Charger Scat Pack, brought to you by a Monster addiction
Filmed in the winter on wet roads and 485 hp can break the tires loose at 40? That's really something special there
The only color a Scat Pack Charger should come in is “Wrong-Hole BROWN”
This comment deserves more than 9 likes
or "I had Red peppers" red
The “Where were you father” bit bodied me 🤣🤣🤣💀💀💀
I don’t know if I’m going to watch this! I love the Scat Pack. Rented a 2019 & fell in love with it. I’m saving to get one!! Least it not dead quiet & it doesn’t go zoom zoom or vroom vroom, it’s growls & roars hell ya!
1/4 mile in low 12s, not 14s... You can do 14s in your v6 Altima.
Yeah... sea level, prepped track, professional driver, best out of 5.
@@calvinnickel9995 not really, keeping traction control on and flooring it would still land you in the 12s
I assumed someone beat me to this. 14 is NOT fast. 12.4 IS!
Common Mr Regular...
That intro applies to any fiat/Chrysler product that passes by me. “Sure, you’re fast and loud, but I’ll be the one who wins the race in the long run.” ~2005 Toyota Sienna
And to be honest, probably in the short run...
Those oddly shaped intakes in the grill must be for plug and play first responder lights.
"and a feeling of chaos unavailable from any other manufacturer" and that's why we love you FCA.... and hopefully Stellantis. Especially now that these things are actually reliable. meaning if you can afford the tires and gas, this thing won't bankrupt you
on a personal note, I do like the SCAT pack idea, but the SRT's are so well done, I'd always feel a bit cheated if I got it.
"Where haave you been faaaardther!" I can't even XD XD
Was that a swede impersonation?
Towed one of these the other day, had just hit a Benz with the dealer plates still on. Chargers are endemic here 🤣🤣
OMG the DS9 reference at the end had me 💀. Dukat was SUCH a good antagonist in that series
omg the ds9 reference ❤
"Scat Pack" Dodge- it's a wink and reference to the Bluesmobile that was called a "shlt box" Dodge in the Blues Brothers..
9 minutes in and Mr. Regular hasn't talked about being a band geek yet. I have to stop to say I am impressed. Don't let me down now.
"Join the Scat Pack club!
T a k e a Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii"
Dodge Charger: The official car of sticking it to the Aussies that no longer have a decent RWD sedan anymore. Seriously, if we can’t get the 300 here why not this?
My grandfather actually came up with the Scat Pack name when he worked marketing for Dodge back in the 60s. Of all the car names to coin...
what was his inspiration?
or better yet check his Web History.
Sitting on the toilet and open up UA-cam to find a new RCR video.
This is a vibe.
I seriously might have pissed with the "Where have you been father???". 😂😂😂
I love the Gul Dukat bit at the end
RCR always makes my day. Cheers guys! :)
Thanks to Roman's outro, I am now picturing Gul Dukat driving a Scat Pack Charger. That's a HELL of an image. I like it.
that colour is seriously gorgeous
4:57 Without a limited slip diff; the inside wheel spins (the one that does no work), with a limited slip diff; the outside wheel spins (the one that is already doing all the work turning)
Wow... That ending was an unexpected departure from the beginning of this episode
“Uh, they know that means something else now, right?”
Thank you Roman, I’m glad I’m not the only one who thinks of “that”.
This Charger is getting more beautiful every year, I love it! This narrow body looks better than the widebody Hellcat
I agree, if it said Pontiac on it and was less reliable I would buy one.
@@_RiseAgainst 😂
Sells person
"Sir would you like the ScAt PaCk with your car?"
Me "Sorry im not into that...freak"
Scat pack charger. The most popular car for the impound lot in Atlanta GA
And in Detroit Michigan as well... let's keep the states coming along....
Wait till y'all see copart and adesa...these things are EVERYWHERE
I appreciate the nuances of the occupation of Bajor.
2000 miles on it? Oh man, he's getting close to that new trans mileage.
Would be a solid joke 10 years ago but the ZF8 is amazing
ZF has had a lot of problems with its transmissions. Particularly the 9 speed.
But yeah... the Dodge transmission jokes from ten years ago are why almost all of their vehicles use ZF.
Wow, you don't know anything about the zf8, or all the other cars that use the same tranny.
Man the comments in here are just as good as the video. Domestic violence car, guy who finances one at the dealer for 13 % APR car, guy who just got out of the military car, etc... all so spot on!
Scat Pack: for when your monthly car payment is more than rent.
Fantastic DS9 reference there at the end! I aspire to have an endless supply of pop culture references like RegularCars has!
The dodge Charger Scat pack. The official car of that guy in the office who laughs at his own jokes in hopes someone else will join him in laughing.
Your snow comments are why I have the AWD GT version of the challenger haha. 300HP is fun in the snow when you arent scared of flying off a mountain pass lol
