  • 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.

    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

    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

    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.

      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

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

      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. 😎
