You know damn well someone will bring their garage queen 170 to cars and coffee with the parachute mounted to it.

Haven't seen one do 150 yet so thats a potential big waste of money
I was thinking about a parachute, but I don't have a Demon...

Wow and already big up to $170K! People are crazy!

Has an awesome spec though.

For comparison, a 300 mile Super Stock ($85K) and a REWBJB ($65K) and neither met reserve.
Both not reachin reserves...guys better plan on keepin em...(and drivin em)

Financing a car for 15 years?

And I feel stupid for going with 6 year terms, which I usually accelerate to 4.5 to 5 years with ~125% payments.

Same as my house, I'm paying enough to turn my 30yr mortgage into 20, and in about another year or so will pay even more to get to ~15yrs.

Saves me almost $100k in interest if I recall.
Been there, done that! The only difference, back when, car loans were 3 year and home loans were 15 - 20 years. I always made sure, the money went on the principal, not an early payment. I remember, the 11- 13% home loans, we were very lucky, with a 9% loan...

Are they still wanting over msrp on 2022 hellcats?
I haven't seen any new 2022 Hellcats, but the 2023 Hellcats are discounted, maybe a couple thousand, but the Redeye, generally, remains over about 5 to 15. I believe they will be negotiating, in the very near future. I have a 2022 red Redeye and had some inquiries, only 1200 miles.

My current loan is 2.875, I can't even imagine paying the going 7%+ rate on new loans!

I won’t get into details here, but I’m pretty familiar with the Road Vultures… I may even have some memorabilia kicking around from them, HA, and the Outlaws. And there was always a Knuckle in his collection, my younger brother has it now.
That’s quite the introduction to the culture.
I’ve been to the club houses, trap houses, blessings, all sorts of stuff. Kind of wish I remembered more, kind of glad I don’t.
I know them dudes

If you need a chute, you need a cage.
Have your fab shop build the chute mount for you.


Also, Dodge had a Redeye at NHRA events this year that had the parachute mounted to it with Weld wheels etc.
So, I'm thinking DC will be offering parts to make your Hellcat run 150+ here in the future.

Hmmm, just saw this. So suddenly there will be 40 more available????

Hornet and Challenger sales will put the dealer into a drawing for an allocation.
Sounds like a big ADM dealer could potentially land even more ADM Demons.

I texted GM of my local one. He is aware but doesn't think he will get one. But I will get a call if does. So there is that.

This stuff always goes to the high volume dealers.

This is why you can normally get a better deal at one. They want the bonuses and perks that come with the volume.

I'm not sure if it competes with the Trax, but if it does, Chevy is taking Dodge's lunch money in this segment.

Chevy can't keep those puppies in stock. 25k loaded, AWD, 30MPG, and all the infotainment junk that cars have today. Its been a huge win vs the Toe Nail

Using that site, the Trax sold over 12k per month July-September (last month of posted data).
Dodge is fucked
Stellantis believes that they're vehicles are special and deseve high prices.

There's was a time that 7% was cheap.
When we were buying our first house, mortgages were 17%. We ended up with $40,000, 1040 sq ft ranch on an 11% land contract with a 3-year ballon.
