2023 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat Redeye Widebody

[viral thistle]

@final gulch

1. 60 gallon tank with a full tank of fuel will add an extra 350-450lbs to the car and fitting a tank that big in the back of the car is gonna be rough. you're gonna lose all your trunk space and possible even needing to remove the rear seats. highly unrealistic. if you want a car with better fuel economy, i recommend something else.

2. yes twin charging it will cause the gas mileage to decrease drastically. it can make the car any more faster but its not practical whatsoever.

3. after you add that auxiliary tank and twin charge it, you'd probably get 5-8mpg max on a good day.

4. you realistically could put the awd system from police interceptors but its gonna require a lot of modification to the car and you'd have to use a different transmission which may not handle the power of your "twin charged hellcat"

overall, you'd spend 60-70k on the car and an additional 50-60k (generously) to do everything properly including labor

i see that you're only 16 and i know you're not old enough to affirm any of this so unless you're a millionaire, i would not recommend this

[final gulch]

Ik

[final gulch]

I still have a while to go but I was curious on this

[final gulch]

I was thinking that it was also unrealistic, I saw someone get 25 miles per gallon in a demon and I was thinking on what I would get with a redeye

[viral thistle]

is this your first car

[final gulch]

The reason I was thinking about a awd system was due to seeing the hellcat drift many times especially in rainy conditions. It just seemed dangerous so I was hoping that the awd system would fix that and/or make it faster

GG @final gulch, you just advanced to level 1! Chat more to level up and earn top roles!

[final gulch]

Definitely not 😭 I wish

[viral thistle]

any car can "drift" at anytime

ive had my awd audi fishtail in the rain before

[final gulch]

I keep seeing the hellcat redeye being to powerful to handle itself and the rwd system often losing control

[viral thistle]

this is highly unrealistic and i would not recommend it at all, if you want a awd hellcat then get a durango or trackhawk

[final gulch]

I see

[viral thistle]

thats just the driver. ive driven fast rwd cars in the rain before and didnt lose control

[final gulch]

I see

So If I was driving on eco mode and as a normal driver, what range could I get?

[viral thistle]

if it was bone stock then you'll get what the epa rates it at which is 13/22

[final gulch]

I see

Do you think I could use a hellcat redeye as a daily?

[viral thistle]

at your current age?

[final gulch]

No no no in the future when I can afford it and making around let's say over 70k a year

[viral thistle]

i mean anything could be a daily. i know people who dailies zl1's, mclarens, mustangs but it depends if you can afford to daily it

[final gulch]

I see

[viral thistle]

assuming you wont pay the car in full cash, you'll need to account for the monthly payment, insurance, maintenance, gas, registration, and other things. making 70k a year, half your annual income is just gonna be paying for the car idek if it would be worth it at that point

[final gulch]

I see what car would you say I should get instead of a hellcat redeye?

[viral thistle]

well it depends what you want in a car

[final gulch]

Uh

In your opinion

What would you choose instead

[viral thistle]

for a first car id get something cheap and reliable. something you can learn to drive in and if you hit something then it wouldn't cost you an arm and a leg to repair it

get a toyota, cheap and reliable cars

[final gulch]

Well ok yea obviously but when I can afford it, what car should I instead get besides the hellcat redeye?

[thorn mason]

GG @final gulch, you just advanced to level 2! Chat more to level up and earn top roles!

[viral thistle]

thats up to you, its your preference

my opinion is bias, ill just tell you to get an audi

[final gulch]

Ah I see

[final gulch]

R8?

[viral thistle]

god no

rn r8 is gonna cost you more than a redeye. get like an a3 or a4

[final gulch]

Aright I see

I heard many people talking about the Skyline but it is so old is it worth getting?

[viral thistle]

do you live in the usa?

[final gulch]

Yes sir

[viral thistle]

what state

[final gulch]

Florida

[viral thistle]

meh i wouldnt get a skyline. why do you want these cars anyway? are you just trying to look cool or something

everything you mention is either super unrealistic, expensive, or just a stupid decision

[final gulch]

They are just cars I hear the crowd mentioning

I have no idea what they are but when I do a little research they seem cool to me but extremely impractical

That's why I'm here

[viral thistle]

they are all very impractical. im trying to help you as much as i can but you gotta be realistic here

[final gulch]

Yea

I don't want to get a unrealistic car or a luxurious car or a simple one

[viral thistle]

so what do you want? something fun to drive, reliable, gas saver. what things do you want in a car

[final gulch]

All of those and that's all

Ironically the first car I had my eyes on was the prius

[viral thistle]

do you want something new or old

[final gulch]

It has 50 mpg which seemed really cool to me

[viral thistle]

prius is a great choice, my dad has one. 2016 prius daily driven with over 250k miles and he's has zero issues with it. still on original brakes

[final gulch]

New, I feel like older ones may run into more problems

[viral thistle]

other options like the corolla hybrid or camry are also great choices

[final gulch]

Nice the new hybrid also looks cool

[final gulch]

Yea, I have a Honda Accord and it hasn't steered me wrong

[viral thistle]

there you go you already have a good daily driver

to choose the next car you gotta figure out what you can afford

[final gulch]

Yea

[viral thistle]

like i can afford an r8 if i really wanted to but its so unpractical and itll leave me dry every month

i save so much money driving an older car. cheap insurance, parts are kinda cheap (its an audi so its gonna be expensive regardless) but i do all the work myself

its better than paying hundreds or even thousands a month on a car payment

[final gulch]

Yea, the prius seems like the next choice, good mileage, not to bad with comfortness, and it really isn't that expensive compared to other cars. It might just carry me through

[final gulch]

Yea, which company do you think makes the cheapest cars?

[viral thistle]

nissan probably makes the cheapest with their versa but i could be wrong

toyota is a good runner up

[final gulch]

I see

Do you think compact cars are safe? My parents specifically my mother is scared I would get seriously hurt in such small car, the on I'm referring to is the cherverlot sonic

[viral thistle]

you'll be fine, new cars are meant for that stuff

[final gulch]

I see

[thorn mason]

GG @final gulch, you just advanced to level 3! Chat more to level up and earn top roles!

[final gulch]

Aight thank you for your time and for resolving my issue. I do now have a more refined perspective on this matter, thank you!

[viral thistle]

of course, feel free to ping me if you have any more questions

[final gulch]

Aight aight

[brittle cave]

old ones are more reliable

atleast most of them

[rancid elk]

May be the first time in history a 16 year old has been talked from a redeye to a prius

[brittle cave]

Fr lmao
