Dodge Hellcat Challenger Crash....

Dang, can you image buying the car of your dreams and then wrecking it in less time that it takes to buy it? At $60K or more per car, that is a very expensive lesson.

If I ever spend $60K on a car it definitely won't be a dodge. That's almost as bad as buying the $60K luxury Kia.

All vehicles are going up, the higher trimmed 2015 F150's have MSRP 50-60K. Its crazy. And people are spending it because they want the latest and greatest...theres virtually zero discounts on them right now people are paying sticker.

People love buying stuff they can't afford.

You may have if you grew up in the glory days, 1968 - 1971, of the Charger & Challenger. Driving one of those machines was and still is a fantasy come true.

I'd rather spend $60K on a Hellcat rather than gay Corvette, Camaro, Mustang or the European junk!

Do you know why GM & Ford tint their windshields? Because without it, the constant glare of the Dodge taillights in front of them would cause blindness.

There is nothing gayer than a Corvette. Even the name is femmy.

My oldest brother graduated in 71 and he had a friend who had I believe was a 1969 GTX, had a couple rides to school in that machine back when I was prolly in 6th grade or so........ :shock: :shock: .....I wish I could afford one of those today....

Yay.... and 10 years later they had to get saved by the K Car and the Mini-Van.

And for what it's worth, the Corvette, Camaro, and Mustang of today are sad, sad shadows of their former selves also. Baby boomer men and their first wives are the primary markets for these. For Dodge, the primary market is whoever can't afford Ford or GM products.

To each their own, and if it's on your bucket list, gitty up.
