- The Mac Haik Dodge Demon 170 belonging to the Deployed Service Member bombs at Mecum
The highly controversial 2023 Dodge Demon 170 #1965 that was sold from underneath a deployed Active Duty Service Member around Christmas 2023 has finally gone to auction. @TKsGarage and I descended upon Houston, TX to see off the car that allowed us and @ocmotivator to take the fight to dealers for customers wrong in their deals.
In this video I will go over the backstory of how this played out in the background being one of the main architects behind its fate.

This whole deal still pisses me off. Someone with a dump truck should go get a giant load of fresh cow manure, back up to Mac Haik flowoods front door, and dump that 💩 so thick, you can’t even walk through the front doors!
Wait so if it only sold for $152,500, how much “proceeds” actually went to charity??? Sounds like they lost money on it.
I think it went for about 65-70k more than any of those cars should ever sell for.
No the car is objectively worth 120k
Not in. Virginia anything under 10k is a new car
@@fulcrumsee5968 No, it isn't. What makes it worth that much? Hype? Horsepower? I can buy a drag car professionally built with 2400 horses right now for 100k. So what exactly makes this car worth more than that? You can't drive it on the highway.
@@moralobjection4836why can’t it drive on the highway? Who sells 2,400hp drag cars with a factory warranty? Price is dictated by the market, what people are willing to pay for it.
@@moralobjection4836This is street legal, has a warranty, and is actually a cool car, it’ll always be a rare and cool Demon 170, something like a heavily modded Hellcat will always just be a heavily modded Hellcat, people are going to still want the 170 over that
The Demon 170 ship has sailed 😮
I got mine for just a bit under MSRP and I take my kids to school in it. It's just a car to me
The demon 170 and greedy dealerships with stellantis destroyed dodge
Along with the lying Dodge CEO Tim Kuniskis.
Butter, you look ok in the photo. Once again, congrats on your new car! Thanks for standing up and helping to make things right!
Very well done video, great editing and documentation of the story of this Demon 170, this was definitely historic. Great job to you, TKs Garage and OC Motivator and the others that contributed to the success and positive outcome of this situation.
Going to a Dodge dealer today it's worse when you go there just a ghost town and barely any customers and so much stock on hand it's crazy.
So are you saying their ice vehicles aren’t selling?
@@diegoharo7943 barely anything is moving off that lot
Because they're holding the prices at a high level
@@VerifiedVIPMember just like their CEO they just don't get their customer base anymore especially for the overall quality vehicle your getting not worth it
Never buy a Dodge Again.
I believe in you on the weight loss man! You got this big dawg💪🏻
Lmfao the motortrend pop up was hilarious. They are always in their feelings lol 😂
Not getting a Dodge is the best thing that could happen to anyone.
dont mess with that OZEMPIC......lol treadmill sir
Straight poison! For real
@13:25 You know she loves that Dad Bod lol
All I hear is how crazy it is to pay over sticker on these 170s . However now it’s a bust when it goes to auction and only goes over 20-40k over sticker. What’s a deal at this point ???
Mac haik didn’t even get a slap on the wrist. Show me them getting a 1 model year ban on banshees and then we’ll talk
I think every dealer going to have a 1 year ban on Banshee's because no one is going to buy it
Feels weird to hear of this challenger yet again.
Math is backwards on BaT vs Mecum. Bat sold price is what is listed $156,500 plus fees of $7500 = $164,000. Seller nets $156,500 minus $100 fee.
The Mecum price listed includes buyer fees already and they are $152,500 plus fees totaling $167,750. Seller nets sales price of $152,500 minus fees of 10% = $137,250
The biggest car hoax i've ever seen
Kinda wish they had F6 Bright Metallic Green as an option. I would have thought Pitch Black would bring a higher price. Plum Crazy looks like a desirable paint scheme. What would you call a premium colour?
Stellantis needs to be removed from the American market all together with these harmful to the brands strategies. They still have tyme for the hemi's to be used in the Chargers, Challengers, 300's and Rams 1500 DT. They screwed up when they stop making smaller affordable cars which can be ev's and hybrids which cut's those emissions penalties
Everything but the Ram, has already been discontinued.
Butter, people have found out the truth about the Demon 170...it is a one trick pony. The average buyer would have a better all around ownership experience in the Challenger Super Stock.
I sold my 2022 hellcat with only 3k miles on it, and made money on that sell. Realized by 2025 gas will be above 12 dollars a gallon and didn't see the point of keeping it. I didn't race it, didn't track it, so what's the point of it. Flipped that money into my bitcoin and other stocks and 3x'd my bag. It's not worth it.
Pretty Sad as that car is amazingly beautiful
How? It’s still over msrp
Yes it was…..just seemed it should have sold for more
Outside of the motor it’s the same damn car since 2015 nothing that special imo
That color alone would make it worth far less in my opinion. Everyone wants the bright colors. I’m not sure the miles makes any difference. New cars sell with more miles on the odometer. Maybe if you’re a collector and you’ll never do anything with the car but keep it stored forever, then you’d want one with 5-10 miles but the car is technically a new car and if you’re going to drive it at all, 54 miles, who cares. I think it’s color and options that hurt the value.
Bruh don't put yourself down for being focused on helping family and others. As long as your health is A-Ok and you are aware to get sum more movements into your daily routine you are on path called change🤜🏾🤛🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
It’s the color tbh f8 hype went down really fast
Historically, charity cars go for big money. Was this car being advertised as such for the several military organizations that were advertised.
It's ok, just cut the butter out butter. Lol we all go to seed in our latter years.
If I’m not mistaken several of you RUclipsrs made mention you wanted to buy this car. 🤔
that dont make sense so dodge took the car from a dealer who was going to give it away in a challenge because it belong to a soldier then they turn around n auction it off Jesus whats going on it this world im so lost
No, the dealer unwound the deal on this car from the customer they sold it to and tried to sell it back to the soldier at a markup.
Dodge stripped an allocation from the 20 days of HP contest just incase the dealer was still up to shenanigans. And the soldier ultimately decided on his new car because they couldn't work out an agreement
Cold dipping caused me to lose 30 pounds and Brazilian Jitsu.
Ok fatty!
Well they know it's going to be a jinx for who ever gets it LOL
The 170 is not as “desirable” as the original Demon.
dealer in so cal has 14 brand new one 2018 Demons never driven or titled
@@youtubecarspottersguide1got the name ?
Huntington beach cdjr they wanted $125k over sticker
Would have done better at Mecum next month at Indy.
😁👍
"Chief Bortherhood Caretaker" #LuvItMayne 🫡💪🏾🏁Ⓜ️💯
The original dealer created a bad fib regarding the car from the start, even though it ended ok.
Otherwise I think the car would have sold for more?
Who is this soldier i been hearing about? 🤔
How does a soldier afford a car like this?
Everything's paid for in the military, down to the housing. They don't really have any expenses.
Pay in a combat zone on deployment isn't taxed, and you have no expenses. It's not uncommon for guys to come back with 50 to 100k in the bank
@koenigseggkid1678 no necessarily true. While they have access to on base housing they don't earn whatever the housing allowance is if they loved off post. Plus they do still have all the normal bills a civilian may have. My guess is this person was a high ranking NCO or officer cause no one who's lower enlisted is affording that car unless they outright buy it
@@damianstevenson5942he probably just has a fat monthly. Seen it a lot while in service.
if I remember correctly because I've been following this story the soldier has a business and the way I understand it's a pretty successful business and then if you want to include but he makes being in the service
It’s crazy these motards are sad that the demon149 didn’t went for $200k lol.
I love my demon 149 I'm finally about to hit 500 miles so I can play with it
The color didn’t help. How about some 70’s avocado green appliances for your kitchen while you’re at it.
I liked the color. It seemed fitting to the infamous story and its original owner's background. The subdued look is more sleeper in attitude than the bright attention grabbing colors most choose.
I lived through the 70's so I did laugh at that. We had green appliances. They weren't the most attractive but they did work for decades. Thank god it didn't have shag carpet, tassels and bean bag chairs for the passengers.
But a CB with a whip antenna would work. Pusher bars/brush guard? Woodgrain panels and chrome trim? Maybe a lift kit and 4 wheel drive to give it a touch of AMC Eagle? Manual transmission and steering. Chromed bumpers, mud flaps, Cragar wheels with Mickey Thompsons and an 8-track AM radio. 😎
All of you RUclips's negative publicity on this car which turned into a negative story is what hurt the price nobody wants to buy a car with a negative story And green is the worst color in that car
An overrated boat anchor.
Loved my 2019 Challenger Scat Pack Widebody and sold in 2021 for $3K more than I paid new. Drive a Tesla now.
