  • This is Dodge's refinement of their four-door Charger, and one of the first post-bailout cars from Dodge. The guys introduce it to some canyon roads to see if this Charger is more than just a car for rental fleets and law enforcement.

      Bwitched if the owners before you haven’t done burnouts you probably won’t have to replace much of the engine but keep the suspension maintained as it is a heavy car and a lot of power

    for a long term, ownership one can buy a Camry. But This car would a joy to drive on your daily commute.
    I drove this car twice in the past year, and most of what they said is correct:
    1. Car is way more powerful than it should.
    2. Rear wheel drive cars are frowned upon for snow driving. But this thing handles very, very good, like most sedans that are RWD, just like the germans prefer.
    3. interior really nice.
    4. Trunk huge.
    5. people usually get out of the way at nights, as they think its a cop car.

    Yes. The wheels are part of the "BlackTop Package" that was on this press car. In fact this Chargers whole Blacked-out look was the result of that factory option. Thanks for watching and commenting!

    Still have my 2014 Dodge Charger blacktop that looks exactly like this and to this day I still get compliments on the car. People don’t think it’s 10 years old. And while I wish I had the RT or str8 version, I’m happy with my car. Especially after I got custom red seat covers, it looks perfect. It’s my first car and my baby. Been to over 30 states, Canada, and Mexico in it. Nearly 200k miles on it now. I don’t think I’ll ever sell it.

    The Challenger, Mustang, and Camaro aren't 4-door/4-seat family capable cars, which is why we mentioned this car (and its sister the Chrysler 300) as alone in this part of the marketplace - especially as Big RWD cars available at this price point. Thanks for watching and commenting!

Most other car reviews online always make the car they are reviewing seem like its excellent and you should buy it, which is terrible. I'm glad there are people out there just giving their honest opinions, and hopefully the car manufacturers are paying attention.

    I just rented the V6 version for business and put 1000 miles on it through the mountains of VA and TN. One of the best riding cars for the open road with great fuel economy at 31.1 mpgs. On tight mountain roads of TN this car is enormous and takes all your attention. It is fun in that it harkens back to vehicles of yonder like a Ford LTD or Town Car because of the long hood.

    Great question, but as mentioned in the review the segment being discussed is large RWD family sedans in the high 20s- low 30s. The Taurus is FWD in most versions and a FWD Biased AWD in the SHO. Until Chevy releases the new RWD SS, the Charger remains a part of one.

I got 8500 off msrp (44k mrsp) with a .4 % interest rate. I was looking at Cadillac ats, Lexus is350, and the charger crushes then on features and price.

    I snapped up a 2014 Charger R/T Plus w/AWD. Just in time too because I'm not crazy about the design of the 2015. Plus you can't get AWD with a Hemi anymore. That's a big mistake for all the folks in the snow states. So happy with my purchase. Really, really fun to drive and it's a total head turner. People walking, driving, biking always look at this car. Other drivers have that look on their face that says... that's the car I really wanted but for some reason I got this Subaru instead. Not many 2014's left. If you're planning to get one, better hurry.

    • @Rescinded_Rainman
      @Rescinded_Rainman 5 років тому

    and for your next FAQ/Q&A video...I need a commuter car that gets 35-??? MPG highway(I now haz 100mi round trip commute)...Do I settle for 40 mpg and get a used Hybrid(Fusion/Cruze/optima) or bite the bullet and grab a wait for it, Prius?*Shot by crossbolt*...Or possibly a used CR-Z(coilovers, ect)?

    I'm not a Dodge guy (or an American car driver) at all, but you guys sure made me consider buying this car. I wanted to get an Audi, but an older friend of mine told me they're trash; I considered a VW, but he said the same. I decided I might as well go for a Lexus (I'd considered an Infiniti before this, but I learned they're not the best idea for family car) and get it over with. I saw the Charger as a bachelor and not family car, and my bachelor days are coming to an end. This review makes me wonder if the Charger really can go from bachelor ride to family car without too much effort.

    • @MrThat70svan
      @MrThat70svan 10 років тому +2

      It's a good car but not for everyday use!They are fun to play with but before you go buy 1, rent 1 for the week and see how much U like putting gas in it a lot more often that a VW! The VW Passat is bigger inside,built in the USA and is the only car offering a TDI at under $30K The Passat would last a whole lot longer and go to Don'tbuy a dodge.com! Or look it up on UA-cam all the troubles people with Dodge's have! Again,they are fun to drive but reliability has never been Dodge's strong suit!

    • @BreezeeGreenz
      @BreezeeGreenz 10 років тому

      MrThat70svan
      Thanks for that. I won't waste my time with most American cars (I only consider Chryslers for their European look). I'll probably stick with the Audi A4 or VW Passat TDI since I love driving and it's awesome how many miles (I think it's about 800 miles on one full tank) you can get out of those things.

    • @MrThat70svan

    • @BreezeeGreenz
      @BreezeeGreenz 10 років тому

      MrThat70svan
      Totally agree. And the VW TDI (Audi has one too) is probably what I'll get if I go with that. It's simple in style which is what I most love about it. Life is complex; keep everything else simple.

    We completely agree with you. And maybe our earlier response didn't come across as intended, but we do applaud Chrysler for offering a car this big and capable - for some reason that's become very rare. It doesn't mean the size of it can be ignored in a discussion, but as the reviews shows we liked this car a lot. Small cars can be fun, but if that's all the world had we'd be worse off! And we will always recommend a car over a SUV/Minivan etc.

    I'm 58 years old and the coolest car I've ever had was a used 72' Chevelle that my brother and I purchased back in 75'. Never had a new car to myself but beaters to get me from point A to point B. I'm not getting any younger so if I'm going to get something nice I better do it now. After watching EverydayDriver I took a test drive and Wow was I impressed. Ordered a 2013 SXT from the factory a week ago. Can't wait!

    YES! I was hoping you guys would review this one soon!
    So would you guys prefer this over the 300c or even say the Challenger 392? And how would you compare it side by side with say the Cadillac CTS(-V or not)? Or say Hyundai Genesis (sedan) or Infiniti G35, i mean they're entirely different cars but i'd say the closest thing to it in the asian market. Just for your opinions though.

    You guys should do a review on Affordable muscle cars (99-04 Mustangs and F body Camaros and Firebirds). That would be AWESOME.

    @ EverydayDriver @Paul @Todd where is the Chrysler 300c review?? I've been waiting for that review from you guys. I trust your reviews and so I'm anxiously waiting to see if it's a good purchase. 😬👍

    What sort of mileage does the Accord get? Because like they said in the video, this thing gets 31 highway.
