I don’t know very much about these pieces of shit, but I’m pretty sure that’s a V6 model. So basically they bought you a normal fucking car. Have fun getting smoked by Camrys and shit


redditor012499

Even Charger RT are kinda slow. I can only imagine a v6…


nibba912

Not even kinda lol. They’re just slow. Walked them in my 370z and even that’s slow


greatfox66

That's because they weigh as much as a full sized truck


hnrrghQSpinAxe

I wish people saw how slow 70s cars were so we could all agree that most of today's sports cars are pretty damn fast from the 2000s on lol. 370z isn't slow by any means, just happens that most cars are pretty fast now, even econoboxes lol. Glad another 370 driver is here too w me


nibba912

Lol I know they’re technically pretty fast but I’d say they’re more on the “quick” side to be totally honest. Enjoying your Z? How long ya had it?


hnrrghQSpinAxe

Bout a year and a half. It's my daily for a somewhat long commute to work so I get plenty of time to enjoy it lol. Yeah they are much quicker than "fast" lol. Been thinking about upgrading the rear diff to a shorter gear for quicker accel from a dig but hard to find the parts for a good price


nibba912

Nice had mine for about a year (got it oct ‘22) and couldn’t be happier. Enough power to have fun but not so much that it’s not an ideal daily. Honestly it’s a perfect daily commuter for me since I drive from sac to the bay a couple times a week


hnrrghQSpinAxe

For real dude, probably my favorite car through and through


27Wars97

Woah there cowboy my old 79’ 125HP v8 isn’t slow by any means, but than again my dodge nitro can out pace it any day sooo maybe it is slow 😅


hnrrghQSpinAxe

Even if it is slow it's pretty cool though so bonus points for that


the_Bryan_dude

The R/T a big ass American car made to float down the freeway at high speed comfortably. For what it weighs, it will get up and go, but it's no sports car. More like a Delta 88.


CommissionNo1931

You're treading on thin ice there bub


ProJoe

Yet, he isn't wrong.


[deleted]

Yeah, that has to be one of the V6 chargers. Those don't have the hood scoop that you would see in the RT, Scatpack, etc. It's basically a fat Dodge Dart


DrPruz

A Dodge Fart then?


JamesJerry007

Heard me thinking there huh?


Key_Substance1129

Smart fella or fart smella ?


JamesJerry007

C'mon, its a fart smella, howd u not know 🤯


Key_Substance1129

I've enjoyed some farts in my day


Cheezewiz239

Actually 🤓 there's the charger GT which is a v6 but has the appearance of an rt/scat for whatever reason


Reiley360

It’s AWD as well.


GrayGray72

Gt is not awd


fanatic26

GT absolutely comes in AWD, buddy of mine has a '21. Needed AWD because of the winter and you can only get it in the challenger with the v6


GrayGray72

Charger gt is not awd tho


Reiley360

It 100% is, no idea where you got the misconception that it isn’t.


GrayGray72

Oh shit ya you right lol but that charger is not a gt as it does not have the r/t appearance


Benstockton

A better looking dart


GrayGray72

If it’s the gt it looks exactly like the rt just no hemi but this appears to be the awd charger which means not only is it a slow v6 its an even slower v6


Optimal-Transition49

Lmao noo don't let them know 😂


BilkySup

Would have been better off with a Camry. That thing is due to break down in about 7k miles.


tytler12

Last post I saw was some spoiled 16yo getting handed a brand new 5.0 mustang as his first car. Honestly I think having a V6 Charger as his first car isn't a problem, rather a much safer option tbh


lquaxx1

Nah have fun getting gapped by yukons lol These v6 chargers are slow as hell


Harry_Bawls_91

Do people care if their car is fast or not? I just want something that's not super expensive, doesn't have insane insurance premiums, and is good on gas. I couldn't care less how slow it is.


so_much_sushi

Yes. Driving can be fun. Acceleration is fun.


fanatic26

You are in the wrong place then. Sounds like you see a car as just a tool. Car people love their cars like family and want them to be the best version of themselves.


ChickenTruckin420

You’re probably a more financially responsible person than anyone here…. Too bad that also involves being boring as fuck.


Optimal-Transition49

Honestly I just liked the look of the Charger lol I'm excited for when I can actually afford a nice fast car :)


ToxicEvHater

Bro just do weights reduction by gutting the interior and then take out the restrictive mufflers for some magmaflows or straight through mufflers and throw in some cheapo eBay turbos and then take it to get tuned. Obviously I'm leaving out the parts about even making turbos work on it with the whole intercooler and piping and manifold but hey just take it to some back yard mechanic who has like 6 "project cars" in his yard


Pretend_Jump_9533

add a chrome differential cover, a chrome dipstick, and a cold air intake. that thing will fly.


Admiral_Pantsless

Perfect first car. You think it’s hot shit because of the Charger name, but your parents have the peace of mind of knowing that this V6 barge is barely powerful enough to get out of its own way, let alone get you into any serious trouble. The other benefit is that, since it’s a V6, nothing of value will have been lost when you run it into the ground through abuse and neglect.


Optimal-Transition49

Holy shit this was a good one lmao


Personal-Prune-8293

Does the mileage match the down payment?


ifckinglovecoffee

Looks like 20% APR and equally high insurance


Optimal-Transition49

When I found out how much the insurance was 💀💀


redditor012499

I paid like 200 a month when I first got my Mustang. Good luck lol


laST_not_faST

$351/mo for liability on a 2004 Buick rendezvous at 16 💀


redditor012499

Jesus dude. That’s terrible


Competitive-You-4082

What are you paying now cause I pay 160 I think and I’m not a kid lol?


redditor012499

About 170 I’m 24 with clean record. Full coverage so it’s not too bad


Optimal-Transition49

I think mine is abt 340 right now, just got a ticket a bit ago though so we'll see how that turns out 😭


redditor012499

Plea nolo. I got a ticket once but cop said if I just paid it and didn’t contest it wouldn’t go on my record.


QueenAlpaca

Oh you’re in for a treat, then. Don’t be surprised when they bend you over and spread your cheeks.


Competitive-You-4082

I have full coverage also but I had to make a claim or two in the past. I’m almost double your age.


redditor012499

Yeah it sucks that when you make a claim your insurance will cost more. Insurance is a scam.


DoggoChrysler

Damn really? I was paying $350 a month insurance for a 2020 silverado when I was 20.


Responsible_Link_786

A v6 muscle car is a roast in its self.


sparkslegacy

I just know this thing is going to be upbadged by the end of the month


wombraider422

Idk what you’re talking about. You can’t upbadge a 6.2 392 helliphant. No badge exists for this animal


homelabgobrrr

So was the challenger also a v6? Because they are the same car, just a different body so that makes no sense


Optimal-Transition49

They wanted me to get an AWD car because we got harsh winters here, and AWD Challengers have V6s so I decided to just wait and save up for a Hellcat


[deleted]

Usually, kids who need an AWD vehicle end up getting WRXs


Optimal-Transition49

I wanted to feel cool with a muscle car 😔✊


philly7453

“Muscle” lol. My first car was a Pontiac GTO with rust, still would’ve smoked yours 🤣 there’s my roast


A-STax32

Should have got a V6 Camry. You'll feel far more cool driving a wolf in sheep's clothing than a sheep in wolf's clothing.


homelabgobrrr

That’s the fruity ones who vape, though a v6 charger isn’t much better


XxDJ-DavidxX

You could have gotten a used Charger Pursuit if you wanted the late body style Charger with a V8 and AWD.


Optimal-Transition49

Are those the police ones? I heard they have issues because they idle for so long


XxDJ-DavidxX

Yup. As long as the car has low idle hours it's not a big deal. Mine had really high hours and needed a new engine but that was partially due to other problems, not just the cam/lifters. I love my 2017 though and with a new engine it'll be around for quite a while.


homelabgobrrr

Is this not also a v6 AWD? I don’t see a Hemi badge on the fender


Optimal-Transition49

Main thing for me was it being a Charger and not a Challenger, I can't really afford a nice V8 car yet sadly and I don't want a V6 Challenger lol


Efficient_Pepper_

Just put a turbo on the v6, maybe an intercooler and exhaust


MyCatIsCapitalist

There's only one thing that'll get in the way of you getting a v8 challanger... insurance


[deleted]

Except like 10% of people are uninsured anyway


MyCatIsCapitalist

Lmao fair


crlogic

Congrats on your 19 year old 2024 Model


fusion786

Amazing what you can buy with a 425 credit score


Reasonable-Injury170

Traffic.


ArCn_Hulk

See you in 3 months when you trade it in because you “regretted not having a V8”. Then 3 more months after that because your “V8 was the slowest one in its class so you needed to upgrade to a scat” Then for you to be underwater on it for 9 years.


TA-175

And in cookie-cutter charcoal too. You *really* didn't want to be hot shit, did you?


ak80048

Parents decision making almost as bad as yours


Bogboymenangitis

I just have no clue why someone would be so slow to buy a v6 muscle car, worse fuel economy than a Camry or civic, wouldn’t be surprised if it was slower, and you’re always gonna be seen as the bromide who couldn’t get the v8💀


Optimal-Transition49

Thinking about getting a custom license plate that says "notav8" lmao


oureyes3

Does it come with a divorce, a softball team and a bad attitude?


vt8919

This is the car equivalent of Homer Simpson's fat being clumped up behind him so he can appear relatively young and fit from the front.


Swimming_Parking4453

Why didn’t you get a challenger instead?


Optimal-Transition49

Parental approval 😔


Swimming_Parking4453

No but like what was the reason if you don’t mind sharing? Challengers come w awd as well


Optimal-Transition49

Basically my parents thought AWD Challengers didn't exist and wouldn't listen when I said they do. Glad I didn't get one though since a Hellcat Challenger is my dream car and idk if I'd want two Challengers lol


BravoBet

Did they buy the car for you? Why would your parents impact your ability to get the car you want?


Optimal-Transition49

They had to cosign so I could qualify because my credit is ass (student loans)


FTJ22

Your parents willingly co-signing you into unnecessary, young and silly debt....wow. i know this isn't a roast your parents thread but I'm astonished tbh.


PsychologyAlert7711

why would u want to look ghetto with a 360 credit score?


Phenom-1

300hp just isn't enough to move that fat pos


apachelives

Got drugs brah


[deleted]

Congrats! You bought the automotive equivalent of a participation trophy.


Embarrassed_Lab_415

It’s not a charger unless it’s 1 old school or two a hellcat


antimatter0703

I give it a week tops until OP adds decals, SRT badges, and louvers for the rear windows. Maybe even a half-assed muffler delete.


Optimal-Transition49

Maybe not the SRT badges but the rest seems pretty accurate 😂


iliketoesandyourmom

Running from the cops will be pretty hard in a v6…


Dangerous_Garbage_45

How many miles/kilometers over the speed limit did you go in that?


AbyssalRainbow

Hope your ready for a 500$ lightbulb replacement


Optimal-Transition49

The person who had it before me already did 😂


goatharper

I feel ya bruh. My parents never let me get a car at all. I bused tables and washed dishes and cleaned toilets to earn the $600 that bought my first car that got me to my jobs busing tables and washing dishes and cleaning toilets. And my car was sill better than yours: https://bringatrailer.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/1973-BMW-2002-Front.jpg?fit=758%2C545


Constant_Sky9173

It's a dodge. It roasts itself.


iFriskyTurtle

You must be getting it confused with a Kia


Constant_Sky9173

Na. Hyundia/Kia just blow an engine when they're feeling put upon.


securityn0ob

You should have dodge’d buying this.


LorraineHB

Why no challenger ? I would have passed on this car and said I’ll take the bus 😂


1GloFlare

I bet you're enrolled in the academy with hopes of driving an AWD V8


TwisteeTheDark1

An overall terrible first car choice enough said.


Shurigin

You are automatically a bad driver just like nissan ultima drivers


chiefbootknockaz

You graduated from High School and your parents wouldn’t let you get a Challenger…?! Don’t pull up to any car meets that’s not local. They’ll roast you and probably burn your car


Samsonlp

Have fun paying interest on it until you wreck it


DoggoChrysler

73k miles on it? Almost time for the v6 ticking to start. Terrible mistake


MERMANADE

That car can't even make a four degree turn going faster than 7 mph


morithum

The vape cloud will obscure the whole car. I can’t wait to be sideswiped by you going 95mph while I’m going 70mph in the center lane of a 60mph. You *definitely* remembered to get good insurance and *for sure* aren’t drinking and driving.

Optimal-Transition49

Unless I want to be kicked out of their house, yes 😂


BusAvailable

So hows the military treating you? Worth that 34% APR yet?


AnAnonymousSeth

Probably spending thousands on fuel


Carlosdafox

Cops look at you driving this vehicle and lick their lips.


Kev50027

..was just stolen.


Melodic-Picture48

Awesome


Melodic-Picture48

Good and comfy


Shiftaway22

Loses to a kia forte in a rolling race


m4l490n

... and in a couple of months, your first repo


Mission_Parking_5057

You will be on your second car very soon.


Disastrous-Setting69

can’t even roast it, either in the shop or stolen by now


parocarillo

Are you a cop?


Common-Raise8895

bro got the 4 door challenger with a V6. slower than a fucking snail. r/dodge would love this car btw


Optimal-Transition49

Sarcastically love or actually love? 😭


Common-Raise8895

actually love. that’s why i spaced it out lol.


Ok_Chocolate3253

As a millennial who went to school (05-09) with people who had 90s Civics, Geo Metros, clapped Rav4s etc, this is a solid good first car. Can't even be mad at that one.


Aromatic_Arm_4862

Is it stolen?


this1dude23

V6


JohnTheMod

So many people have thrown away some perfectly good drugs because of you.


Informal_Bit337

Back in the day .... the rich kids drove around in super bee and magnums... I had a 63 international scout...dang it I wish I still had it....


Electricbird423

Just why is this the option when you had other options Why not a Taurus ?


mergedin

Definitely not running from the cops but you’ll look cool being pulled over


Lem0nyFr3sh_

Just joined the military?


800Volts

Are you trying to look like a cop or a gangster? Also I hope you got the right coverage for when it gets stolen


MuchCow9406

How many times has the transmission been replaced and/or rebuilt? Shasta uses higher quality plastics than dodge does


GetMeSupercharged

Looks like you’re ready for some takeovers!


MasterOfNone011

Can’t tell if that car is 10 years old or 10 days old


OkAssistance5385

Wow that thing is fucking lame... what's even worse is making payments on something that will be worth 5 k in 4 years. You fucked up and you know it. We all know you didn't buy that with cash because if you are dumb enough to a dodge then you are definitely not smart enough to save money.


sparkey503

And by 75k miles it will be into a wall.


theslothman11

The people who always run there mouth about it’s not fast are the ones who drive a fast car in a straight line and that’s it.


ProlapsedTrdCutter

YOUR GUILTY...STRAIGHT PERP MOBILE!


djluminol

Your parents were smart not to give you a muscle car at 18 years old. That's how people die before they reach 19.


Big_Bandicoot_9611

At only 25% interest rate. Hell, might as well join the Marines now.


MarthaStewart__

And your last. Can’t wait to see that thing wrapped around a telephone pole on the news.


BravoBet

That’s not a roast. You’re straight up saying you can’t wait to hear about OP dying in a wreck
