You should have asked any mechanic whether you should buy an electric car. They would have said only a fool would buy an electric. I guess you'll realize it soon enough.
I like the hellcat more but the tesla is cool and i respect the decision, it is your money like you said but i am hopeful for a future classic muscle car too
I didn't exactly hate it but damn, you were living my dream, driving THE hellcat. Of course now that I've seen the acceleration on the plaid, I'm good! Congrats Donut! Enjoy the fuck out of it!
Both of Donut's videos about the car DO NOT show the acceleration as good as it actually is in real life. I highly highly recommend you just at least get a ride in one, somehow. It will seriously take your breathe away. They are incredible cars.
@@tylerpetro lmfao you couldn’t pay me to get in one of those absolute death traps… not to mention they are built with such horrible quality parts might start coming off as you drive down the road! Happened to two different ppl I know….
He doesn’t seem as boozy about his ownership of the Tesla as literally any other Tesla review I’ve seen and I can’t help but feel his excitement radiate to me. It looks like a lot of fun!
Almost guarantee it’ll break in a few months. Teslas are of such shit quality, literally would rather have a Hilux from Afghanistan or a Fiat. God help Donut to if someone ever hits him in a serious accident cause he’ll probably end up burning to death, lithium battery fires are near impossible to put out and burn so rapidly there won’t be time for first responders to do that anyways.
Congratulations on getting the Tesla Plaid! There should be a hidden USB port either in the center console or glove box where you can plug in a flash drive to save any video footage from the cameras.
Don't worry about it Donut, even if you regret buying the Plaid (which you won't) you can just enter launch mode, hit 88 mph in like 2.5 seconds, go back in time and just stop yourself from ever buying it. But in all seriousness The Plaid hilariously out classes the hellcat in every aspect.
Haha except it’s environmental impact! Tesla’s are a huge scam! Ppl don’t realize just how bad they are for the environment! They are also built extremely cheap! Oh and good luck ever getting it fixed when it does break and they all break! Buy a diesel and you’ll be doing more for your pocket and the environment!
@@primitive7634 imagine falling for an oil companies lies this easily lol Let me guess, you also think the wars in the middle east had nothing to do with oil and were purely about democracy?
Huge fan of the Tesla, sad to see the hellcat go especially with Dodge discontinuing the Hellcat line but at the end of the day its your money and its your money. Congrats on the purchase!
The USB stick is to put in the USB slot inside the front glove box. This allows the car to save video footage from any and all of the cameras around the vehicle for security or dashcam purposes. You can also use a portable hard drive to have more storage.
Re-Charging: Most new owners don't know this; so feel free to school them.. but at the older Tesla chargers (called v2 chargers like that was), men's urinal rules apply; don't park next to someone unless you need to :) the deeper logic of it is they have a number and then an "A" and "B" which; 1A and 1B share a power source; so if someone is in 1B; you can part next to them in 2A and NOT share a power supply. If all the non-shared spots are full; then it becomes a guessing game as to who will finish first... but absolutely don't pull in next to someone who just arrived unless no other options.
@Dakota Reid They all come with a standard 120volt level 1 charger, the charge time is 20-40 hours though depending on model. The level 2 will charge it in 10-12 hours, I believe that's the fastest charger you can get at home.
its nice when one of your friends gets something new you don't go to flex on em. you let them enjoy it! only reason i wouldve kept the hellcat is cause i heard you mention it was some special edition, may be worth alot more to some dodge lunatic in 15 years
Donut you rock man!!! Don’t let the haters get to you. If you’re a true driving enthusiast, nothing ( without a shitload of money) can beat that car. Congrats on the new car and keep up the fever dream. Very entertaining.
Cody, I love the fact that you are in a position to do something like buy that car. Anyone who hates on you for it is doing so out of spite, ignorance, jealously, or an otherwise unnecessarily negative mindset. I know myself (along with tens or hundreds of thousands of other people) enjoy these vlogs, seeing this side of you, and even living vicariously through you. We can't all buy a Tesla, Hellcat, or Raptor, but watching you buy one and enjoy it gives us some happiness and entertainment. Buy the car, spend the money, take the trip, be spontaneous, and live your life to the fullest. If you have haters, it's probably because you've succeeded. No one likes to spread hate more than those who chose to be ordinary in a world full of extraordinary opportunities.
Congrats donut! It's a good choice going electric, especially with gas prices skyrocketing. Still gonna miss the hell cat tho, just play some supercharged v8 noises when you're driving around lmao.
@@deadnorth8648 everyone think the power lines that havnt been upgraded in years can handle everyone charging at once. And of course the power companies wont ever raise prices lol
If you are in a financial position that you can afford a Hellcat or insert any other fast new car here. Then you are in a position that the cost of gas isnt going to be a deal breaker
Honestly this hurts too see because a dodge Challenger is one of my dream cars, but the future it's looking bright. I respect you're choice, at least you didn't downgrade.
As a long-time enthusiast of slot cars and R/C electrics, I congratulate you on your new toy. Still, that chatter about "driving a stick" hints at some lingering inner conflict. ;-)
Wife hit a deer in our new car. Luckily just a small dent and a unimportant light broke. Have been trying for months to get it into a shop. By far the worst aspect of the Tesla
At least when it's repaired in a shop they might put it together with slightly better than dogshit build quality that all tesla's come with. And it'll all be done in about 5 months if you're lucky
If you haven't in car yet; there is a set of video tutorials; and the manual is also pretty short; 20 something pages for model 3 but will cover alot of stuff you won't know is there.
FROM BATTERY FULL, HOW MANY MILES ON THE HIGHWAY DO YOU GET BEFORE YOU HAVE TO FIND A CHARGING STATION? & HOW LONG TO RECHARGE? I LOVE MY AWD 5.7 L CHARGER COP CAR IN TOWN AND CROSS COUNTRY BUT FASTER IS NICE TOO!
I love how he is trying so hard to justify that ugly ass car 🤣😂.... Next episode donut trades in raptor for Ford lightning... I love your content but learn to take some hazing, you got thin skin for former military
USB stick will go in the glove box so can have the teslacam (dashcam) and sentry mode clips saved; its recommended to get either a bigger USB solid state drive; or one that will upload to your NAS at home when you get back,
They are more costly than your average car, but they are categorized as luxury cars, and in the long run they are soooooo worth it. Fun. Practically zero maintenance. NO GAS!! As a follow Telsa owner, I congrat you on your decision. Let the haters hate.
Congratulations on the new car, I think it would look great with tint but don't forget to smoke the brake lights. Looks killer and doesn't inhibit the lumens.
GREAT DECISION! Had an 08' VIPER ACR in black on black with a solid red stripe over the drivers position, for a minute in my garage. Fast? Got beat in the 1/4 mile constantly. Above 120 mph nothing wanted to play anymore against it. Build quality was abysmal. Ram truck parts everywhere. Fit and finish was tonka truck level. Could not relax with it parked outside, thieves and vandals like flies to a rotten piece of meat. Old school dodge guys spitting on it saying, "F'N Rice!!!" (because of the wing and aero they thought it HAD to be Fast and Furious imported) CONCLUSION : If they want you to keep driving a hellcat, it is because they haven't owned one, just want one themselves, it is THEIR halo car. The hellcat/challengers I've been in are the same animal as the ACR, fun for a minute, but not a long term relationship. TESLA is the same long term, in that they don't value the secondary market, but you will find that out soon enough. Have fun with it in the meantime baby! Give Heather a hug for me, she DOES notice how much you say sweet nothings to the new car as you walk up to it. Lots of women are bothered by the vibe of men lusting hard after their cars. Name it after her and you might have a chance! 😜"Yeah, going to take Heather out and give her a hard ride... she always puts a smile on my face!"
The other thing Ive seen mentioned with Teslas is that any software upgrades the previous owner made are removed and the new owner has to purchase upgrades again.
The bad thing about the new car was the fact that Hellcat values will be way more than those Plaids in a couple years when they stop producing the hellcat
You do you sir. Hellcats are cool af though. My dream car. But agree OLD muscle is way cooler when youre ready to jump into it. I grew up with all my dads muscle cars he's built.
Donut charge it at home! It is way cheaper than going to the super chargers! Make sure u put it In a 220 plug. Worth just getting on put in garage so u can charge.
Not sure why everyone’s upset you bought something you wanted. Must be mad they couldn’t afford either the hellcat or the Tesla. Glad you got something you truly wanted.
If you like the Tesla the Porsche Taycan Turbo S slaughters it in the handling and comfort department, but I think the Teslas is faster in a straight line according to my butt dyno. Drove both back to back at a tradeshow. Not a huge fan of EVs but can't go wrong if you want the ones that perform like the Model S or the Taycan. It's a totally different kind of experience than a ICE powered sports car. If you own a model 3 or Y then I can say you handed you "Man Card" in, but the performance EVs are just as raw as a Hellcat. Just in a different way.
I fired Zay again, got a new car, and didn't realize I had a booger in my mustache until I had already uploaded this video.

Hey Donut! The USB port is located in the glovebox, and the little USB stick is for car horns, Sentry mode, etc.
Just so ya know :D

I’d be interested in hearing about driving time/distance between charges. And did it come with an adapter for home charging?
You need a whole Tesla unit to charge it, not just an adapter
@Dakota Reid They all come with a standard 120volt level 1 charger, the charge time is 20-40 hours though depending on model. The level 2 will charge it in 10-12 hours, I believe that's the fastest charger you can get at home.
