Don't know about new Dodges. After buying a 05 quad cab 1500 4x4 5. 7. with 50, 000 miles 8yrs ago. I've been pulling a 20ft enclosed trailer with 2 SxSs, and a loaded bed. I know l should have a 2500 for such a job. It now has 170, 000 and going strong, the engine is amazing, I have to say. Aside from the interior having some broken things. To be honest I take my two 80lbs dogs everywhere, think they broke the driver's door window control by standing on it. And of course my Daughter broke the dom light, you know women, press as hard as possible without looking. hahaha But really after only driving Fords, I was impressed by how well this truck held up. It's sad to see manufacturers loosing their pride in building a long lasting vehicle.

Hey Scotty Kilmer, I drive a Huyndai Sonata 2013 GLS, my vehicle clocked 270000km on the meter, runs fine. I use it for uber and lyft and iam going to sell it with in 6 months as it will not be applicable for uber next year. I have a small issue which bothers me a lot. When I turn on the heater on front defog setting, my vehicle tends to vibrate. It stops doing that when I shift the air conditioning to front or any other settings. But once i shift it back to front defog the car starts to vibrate again. It also stops doing that once I speed up to 60 and above KM/h. What can I do to stop that and does it effects me in the long run?

The RTs 5. 7 is rated at 370 and the SRT8 models 6. 1 hemi is rated at 425 HP, and is what I have in my Challenger. I know Scotty doesn't like Chrysler products, but it has been a very good car and have had no problems with it. I've been a Mopar enthusiast for forever and my first car was a 68 Charger, so I can't really accept it as a sedan and like the 300s much better. Although the new ones are pretty damn nice for a four-door, and especially in 392 or Hellcat trim

With the Charger's output numbers, it's all actually just a ratings thing. That V6 does actually get 305 horses as per the equivalent Challenger, which while holds better value years later, is a grand cheaper brand new, and is the more reasonable comparison to the Mustang, being an actual coupe vs. a 4 door sports/muscle car. I absolutely love these cars. This, the Challenger & Abarth 500 are the best vehicles that have came out of the Fiat/Chrysler merger.

Ive had my 12 Durango Pentastar V6 since April 2012 and Im still on my original headlights, directionals, taillights and break lights. The only thing Ive needed was a new cabin filter when I thought that my ac blower was making noise. The V6 is fuel flexible and in that I live in Florida Ive used e85 a few times when hurricanes made gasoline availability scarce and my Durango became a vegetarian. I drive it like an old fart and I havent had any problems.

Scotty. I have a 2018 Charger SRT 392 with the 6 piston front brake calipers (Brembo. I'll be needing new rotors soon and the only ones I can find that are decent quality, cost 1000-1300 per rotor It's a 2 piece rotor. Do you know anywhere I can buy a good quality aftermarket rotor that doesn't cost an arm and a leg? Spending 3000 on a brake job is not affordable at all. Please comment.

the police use a v8 version of this and the police ones are kept very maintained. i saw one the other day next to a newer charger and the 2014 police one looked brand new still, all shiny i need to hire the police mechanic for my charger lol, i have a hellcat red eye and that thing drives smooth with the pretty good power around 840hp (let's not talk about the price) lol

I got my used 2017 v6 charger 2 years ago when I had to give my tacoma to my brother who was going to college. So far, it's been a good car, but its had some nasty radio glitches, I had to get it replaced under warranty. I'm a little worried about ling term electronics reliability, but other than that it's been great so far.

Scotty likes to show people's lifestyle by showing how dirty his client's cars are. Used cans and messy trunks. Dirty rear seat areas. If I was one of these customer's I DEMAND A VIDEO DISCOUNTSeriously, I am impressed about 138K miles on a RWD 3. 6 V6 still-working Chrysler more so one that appears slightly neglected.
