- 5 Reasons Why YOU Should Buy A 2006-2010 V8 Charger RT
These are my top 5 reasons why I think you should buy a V8 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, or 2010 Dodge Charger. Whether it's a RT or a SRT8, these cars are awesome if you can find them for a good price. The vehicle in the video is a 2008 Dodge Charger RT with the Road and Track Package.

A lot of people requested me to make more videos over this car! Let me know if you have any requests, ideas or etc. Thanks for the support, and I hope you can enjoy my opinion on why you should buy one of these things 💪🏻
I got this same car with the exact same after market exhaust. I need a front seat, and some new tires with minor repair work. Otherwise that joker will hang with the best of them
@@GB-cj3ok these cars are classic man! Hope yours comes together soon!
@@Chowcago Just washed it today and got it looking good, A friend of mine named it Black Knight back in 2013.
@@Chowcago are the srt8 6th gen chargers hood?
Good
This generation of Charger's in my opinion is definitely the meanest and most aggressive looking! Looking forward to more videos!
Thank you so much man ! I got 2 more charger videos coming soon, along with a couple other ideas! I appreciate the comment!
I hit you with a sub !
@@Chowcago as did I my man! Can’t wait to see them when they come out man!
I just got one three weeks ago let just say I’m in lovvveee😍
So excited to hear that 🤙🏻 what color did you get ?
I bought one 4 years ago for $3900.00. I still have the car and I absolutely love it.
im buying one today, 2008 3 grand 162 k miles. yours still works?
@@abehdts5170 Yes it does still run. It had 106,000 miles when I bought it, now it has 133,000 miles. I feel like I'm still getting my money's worth. No real issues mechanically. But upgrades are cheap AF. Maintenance is cheap AF.
@@abehdts5170 how is it? Just seen one 200k for 4,000
The problem with these is the mpg, gas is too expenses now
Even my car that is a v6 it's also expensive now to run if you commute with it
Do you still have it?
I truly love the 06 body. I loved when they brought it back, it truly had that new but classic charger look. I’m looking for one currently. Somewhere between 06 and 10 actually lol
I gotta one 5.7
You ever find yourself one ??? Thanks for the comment !
Loving the car wash clips!
I have on 06 rt with the r&t package and it has 192k miles runs great. And has been nothing but reliable.
@Harrison Dudley lol you trying to jix the man
@@marlikwinnin he’s not lying tho lol these generations are problematic lol
I bought my charger 2008 RT gold "beige" all stock, with 21k miles this old guy in 2019 sold it to me. it was sitting in the garage long story short it was a steal at 10k cash, it has 87k miles on it now me and my wife drove it everywhere during the pandemic all across California, Nevada And Arizona. Best Time of my life! all in This Timeless Dodge Charger! Thought I'd Share my charger story. its still all stock all i added is a Mopar Cold Air Intake which makes it look beast af under the hood! def a must! 💯
Thank you for the comment! More Charger videos coming soon! Im definitely considering a Mopar Cold Air intake, did it increase performance at all?
I fell in love with this body style since my aunt has one and I hot a v6 2007 v6 charger as my first car and now just last week I got a daytona charger. I believe this is the most aggressive looking body.
This is by far my favorite Charger body style! Looks mean rolling down the streets.
The. V8 charger has grown on me over the years. Currently own a 2v mustang for a fun car but wouldnt mind having one of these for a daily. Hardest part would be keeping it stock.
A dream car of mine is a 88-92 5.0 hardtop mustang lol that will be in my garage one day
I love the fox bodies
Bought a 2011 one last month. Best Car of my life. I am from Germany and here it´s pretty hard to get your hands on a decent one. Awesome car.
A white 2011-2014 RT is definitely on my list for future cars 💪🏻 congrats on the purchase !
Congrats G! Bet you turn lots of heads
I agree. I've had one for four years. And I miss it...
Got an 07 rt for my 16th birthday and I love it, incredibly fun and can’t wait to make this thing fast
how much u pay for insurance?
@@static1539 320
I bought my Charger RT in 2007. Black bare bones RT. I absolutely love her. Still have her and only 52K miles. Garaged. Never seen snow. Babied her whole life.
Only issue. She smokes bad when you first start her up after sitting for a few days.
Mine has apparently been garaged it’s whole life too, but it’s still been driven every winter… so that explains the small rust spot starting to form. I’ll have to get it cut out and fixed soon
@@Chowcago
Chicago winters are hard on these. But I was fortunate to inherited a old Saturn for winter. That car was a winter tank !!! No snow ever stopped it !
I'm going to look at one this week! I'm so excited! It's been my dream car since I was 12 heehee
Hell yeah! What color are you looking at ? I’m always interested what colors are peoples favorite on these chargers lol.
I hope
You get it
It’s my dream car as well😍😍😍an I just got me one three weeks ago 😁😁😁😁😁😁
@@LKYNNLKYNN congrats Jennifer !!!! What color did you get ?
Bought my 06 RT with the RT package with 72k on it... loveeee it
Yes! There is something about these old RTs man, love it too !
Just bought one! fire video my guy
Thanks man! Congrats on the car, you will love it 💪🏻 what year ?
@@Chowcago 2008 it’s an ex cop car & has the 5.7 V8 hemi. The previous owner also installed those beautiful red & black RT seats. I love it so far, might make a video on it myself 👍
@@EasyBreezy let me know if you do! You have my support ! And yes these seats are a must , gives it a awesome look and feel!
@@Chowcago Yesssir I got you. Keep grinding 💯
@@EasyBreezy thanks brother ! Subbed to your channel, keep it up too, you are killing it!
Keep makin more videos fam🙌🏽💯
Thank you man 🤟🏻 got some updates coming on the Charger soon
Looking to buy 1 now lol. Great vid
You won’t regret buying one man, something about them is special!
Heck ya great video
Thank you so much! Got some more videos of the charger coming soon, other car related vids soon! I’ll send you a sub, thanks man!
Beautiful. & the pup. 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you bro! I just posted another new charger video yesterday.... the pup makes an appearance ! lol
I have this same car and I love it!
Man I know I’m late too the comments but I got 09 R/T that I bought in 2019 w/70k on it & I’ve loved every bit of it so much so that now I have 2 chargers both 09’s a torred red SRT & a Stone White R/T the look these cars have is timeless
I miss my base 07 R/T, what you have there is an R/T & R/T. Only downside to these is the cheap interior but it's definitely more spacious than my current 2021 Scat.
One of my favorite cars
Thank you for the comment! More Charger videos coming soon!
Can’t wait for the next vid
Same
That dog is amazing
Just picked one up today
A buddy and I just bought a 2010 5.7 cop car for $500. so excited for it to come in!!
Awesome deal man! Keep me updated
Crown Victoria?
❤❤❤looks just like the one I'm getting next week
Might buy one pretty soon, wish me luck!
Heck yeah let me know if you get one 💪🏻
I Still have my 2006 Top Banana Daytona (bought new) with only 50k miles on it.. Love the car..
What is considered good mileage for these first gen chargers? I’m looking at a 2007 black one like yours with 89’000 miles for 10k flat? Decent deal? I’m coming from driving Lexus cars so I’m used to reliability.
nice videoI might be late but wanted to ask this someone selling me an 2010 and 2012 rts price almost identical which would you get and much more reliable less issues? both in great condition and low mileage
Mine definitely still turns heads. I have the 06 rt sitting on foose 24” rims a 2400w system and metal flake red paint (don’t remember actual color). Getting ready to throw a supercharger on it.
I'm just too attached to the back end of my 2013, though the 6th gen grew on me more than I expected
My next Charger will forsure be a 2013 White RT ! Hopefully with the red interior haha but the 6th gen is still my favorite
I have a inferno red 2010 Charger people still give me compliments on it! I'm about ready to retire it from being a daily driver though
i just bought a white 2010 v8 for my first car a few months back and i love it (: pretty sure i have the same rims!
how much do u pay for insurance and how old are u ? kinda need a reference
@@static1539 it’s about $300-350 if i’m on my own plan, not sure of the exact. it’s under my dads name now so i only pay for half of my insurance now but yep around 300 if i was on my own
@@static1539 get a police package 5.7l v8 I’m 21 and my insurance is only $115. Granted I’ve never been pulled over or been in an accident
I like the white one as well! I like the white in 2011-2014 body styles too.
I have a silver 07 RT Charger 140000 miles runs beautiful clean
silver is an underrated color on the chargers!
I got an 07 srt8 plum crazy. Yeah, the body style does look meaner than the new ones. I still run with the best of them on the street.
I miss my SRT8, I enjoy the plum crazy color too!
I agree with you on the mener look for the 2008 dodge charger 2:11 and it is also my favorite my dad has one and I like it so much. hey Mabey if he sells it ill bye it off of him
Buy lol
Would love to hear your thoughts on the srt8, I own a 09 challenger srt8 and despite the problems I've been having (it's the dealerships fault) I love it aside from when it gives me headaches
I’ll be making a vid soon on my opinions on SRT8 vs RT, but to some it up, I think the RT is the better daily driver, but I wish and plan to get a SRT8 to keep in the garage and bust out for summers, because they are awesome! All of these used cars seem to have a higher price (probably from COVID) so once I find a cheap SRT8 again, I’ll be buying it and keeping it.
Keep it , don’t sell it
I have an 09 RT Challenger with 257+k miles and honestly has given little issues like the fuel pump oil pressure sensor A/C alternator but it runs great with the normal maintenance ever since I pulled out the dealership
Jus had my a4 totalled this seems like a reasonable upgrade not too much $ for a ton of car
I have a A4 as well, both are awesome but I definitely prefer this! Thanks for the comment
U added a Dr. Evil vibe to this, holding ur dog like Mr. Bigglesworth😂
😂 rewatching it I definitely get those vibes too hahaha
I'm still waiting for mine to leave the workshop due to some rear swaybar bushings that my uncle, who's a mechanic, hasn't been able to find...
As I live in Mexico the stock ones apparently do not fit properly and it takes zillions of years for the parts to arrive. Mind you it's a 2009 RT.
If anyone has suffered from this issue please some help would come in handy
Love the dog, that reminds me I need to go buy some more Dogecoin. Great review.
Haha everyone says that when they see my pup. Thank you for the comment!
Great buy about to pick my 07 hemi charger today
Question what's your opinion on the srt8
That's my next pick up next year
I owned a 2007 SRT8 but had to sell it sadly.. It’s actually my favorite car ever, but right now they seem to be super expensive. It seems like every used car is over priced right now., so I will get an SRT8 again when they drop in price. I’m making a video soon about owning an RT vs SRT8 !
Congrats on getting the RT though !
Good starter car, it has an iron block that can handle boost better than newer 6.4s, however, its kinda slow, it loves gas, and its heavy AF. But it is indeed a really good looking car, just wish it wasnt so expensive to mod.
I definitely enjoy it! I had a 6.1, and while it was definitely faster, i enjoy how cheap you can find these 5.7s for, atleast before the car inflation recently lol
@@Chowcago oh dont get me wrong, it is a great choice of a car, I drive one, and I love it, its just that for todays standards they became slow, its crazy how companies make these faster and faster every gen. Id still keep mine over most cars though. Loved the pupster in the video BTW.
Thank you so much! My channel has turned into 75% puppy 15% Charger at this point! And yes, it’s crazy how these 2006-2010 RTs were super fast back in the day, and now I feel like a stock newer Corolla can give me a run for its money lol.
@@Chowcago lol
This is a great car. I drive mine as a daily all over Cali. Mine is the police pursuit and I have just put $3000 into it to make everything up to par. As much as I love i have deciddd to sell it if any of you in Cali are interested. Has about 160k on it I believe and gonna sell for first $10k. It’s a retired state trooper car and is fun. If interested leave a comment with info. Thanks
I have 2007 dodge charger ex highway pursuit car and I love it
Does it still run well? Any issues?
yes it is i agreee
Thank you for the comment! More Charger videos coming soon!
What type of tires are those
Going to go look at a 07 RT, it’s a little over priced but honestly it’s worth it imo, sadly it has like 123k miles but I’ll take care of it to the tee. It will be my first V8 if I like it at the dealership!!
Heck yeah ! I hope you buy it. Truly, all cars ESPECIALLY Chargers are over priced. In my area I still see RTs for 7-10k , I got real lucky. I’ll be posting more videos over the Charger this week
@@Chowcago I bought it, and let me say… WHERE HAS THE V8 BEEN MY WHOLE LIFE!?? It came with a muffler delete and subs, along with a touch screen radio and a 1k$ set of rims. Everything I was going to do to it is done already haha, only thing left is to buy a spoiler, maybe some R/T decals or something. It is so fun though seriously, I went from a v6 acura to the V8 R/T and I never realized the absolute power difference, not to mention my dad picked the acura out so i was never super happy, everyone in my family and my friends have been saying that i seem 100X happier now. Thanks for the video man it really was a huge reason I bought it too!
@@SlickAJay so miles don’t matter cuz I seen a lot of those with over 100k miles for 8k but I’m asking cuz I want one for my first car I have no credit by the way so I can’t buy a brand new car yet
@@_chainlesslilbam_ Miles definitely do matter, however look at the shape the car is in, if it’s clean and clearly taken care of then buy it for sure, however if it looks not taken care of and it doesn’t look good, then don’t waste your money. I paid 9k for mine in the middle of covid and it had 123k miles, however it was in perfect condition. Clearly garage kept by an older man and like a weekend vehicle. GOOD LUCK AND HAVE FUNNN!
@@SlickAJay I think u need to help me out before I get one💀
im looking at almost the same one. should I buy it?
Just bought a 2008 police kit for 6,500 and it’s 130,000 miles looks great!
Good deal !
@@Chowcago yeah I just gotta figure how to make the back doors open from the inside😅
$4500 is fucking insane, I can’t find one less than $10k
Yeah man it’s truly nuts, can’t believe how pricey they are all of a sudden..
Damnnnn. Fireeeee. AYYYYYYY
Thank you bro 🤟🏻
Awww miles he winked his eye😭😂
Hi I have a 2010 Dodge charger RT I am looking for the exact grill and I cannot find it anywhere do you have any suggestions. Gloss black
I think I saw some Black honey comb RT grills on eBay ! I’ve seen them go for 150-250 for the price.
im going to buy the R/T hemi this summer
Hell yeah man! It’s a great summer car, let me know when you end up getting one.
I own the rt/hemi
My 2010 rt has 209,00 miles and I love it to death!
What color 2010 do you own ?
How’s that 5.7 held up
I agree with the look compare to the new ones!
Yes, these just look more aggressive in my opinion. Thank you for the comment ! More charger videos coming soon
Cool dog.
Thank you for the comment! More Charger videos featuring my dog coming soon lol!
What would u consider lower mileage? And how many miles are on the one u bought?
For me personally lower miles is under thing under 100k , I think most would say under 80k though. Mine had 110k when I bought it I believe
found a rt 188k miles wants 4,500 for it, what you think ?
You want an 09 and up. Pre Eagle Hemis had issues
Are they reliable?
Going to get another tho
Wow the prices of these have gone way up
Got the doge shiba ‼️🔥
Haha every one says that! I’ll be walking him and someone will scream “DOGECOIN DOGGY” driving by lol
I figured this was going to be a douche vid but when I saw the pup I knew you were legit. Keep up the great work.
Hey thank you so much !
Is there a big difference between the RT and SRT8? Or can I just pick whatever to daily it?
As far as a daily, personally I think the RT is better. More control in the snow, cheaper to buy and maintain, and still a fast and powerful car. But to be honest, the SRT8 is definitely more fun, and has a decent amount more of power. In the perfect world, I would daily and RT and have the SRT8 for summer time cruising. I have some Charger update videos coming soon !!!
@@Chowcago Thanks for the insight, I just found the channel and I’ve been liking the charger videos. But I don’t have to worry about snow because I’m in Cali. Does that charge the final choice in your opinion?
@@papaperc8533 I guess if thats the case, I would go SRT8, but only if you have the money for it. They have higher repair costs, and to be honest they are usually driven REALLY hard by some of their owners.
@@Chowcago Okay, thanks for the tips. I’m most likely going to get one then. It’s between that or a Hellcat but I’ve always been a fan of the 6th Gen design. Especially the black ones
Or you should buy the 2011 to 2014 body style as well I like that body style more with the 5.7L rt
I definitely plan on getting that body style eventually! I like them in white
@@Chowcago sweet I personally don’t like white on the charger I got the grayish metallic color It’s called Granite Crystal Metallic Clearcoat love it got it polished looks amazing with my srt8 front bumper and hood love the front the most
Alright guys help me out. Currently looking at a 2007 charger With the 5.7. Has 153k miles. Interior looks amazing especially for the age ( at least it does in the pictures ). Thinking of trading in my 09 Lexus es350. Should I switch from Toyotas super reliable 3.5L to a hemi ? I honestly don’t know much about the hemi engines , I’m sure they’re great also. But idk how they are when the cars been used for 153 k miles ya know ?
That’s a tough question. The charger is my dream car, so I’d go for it. BUT statistically speaking, it’s probably a lot smarter to keep the Lexus. That’s tough though.
Keep you Lexus
@@lamontgray6015 yuppppp
just got 345 hemi 2010 Charger
traded other car in for 14k
lower insurance, lower loan balance & I have always wanted a charger
Niceee the 2010s are probably the best year for this body style!
Hope I can find one of these, not sure where to look.
Facebook marketplace Is a good source !
you are EXTREMELY lucky for finding that one as clean as it is for only 4.5k. that price is insanely low. all i see are shitty ones that either have a horrible condition body, problems, a super worn out interior, rebuilt title, etc. i can only find like 2 or 3 that are in good condition for 9k-10k for an RT. people just do not take care of these cars lol. i have a 2008 charger V6 as of now and i’m 17 years old. just got it as my first car a day before my birthday. paid 4k for it. absolutely no rust and no body or interior issues except for the paint fading on the left side of the car. i want to sell it next year and save up enough money for a v8 but i don’t really want to get a job just yet because i’m focusing hard on school. anyway my point is, is that it’s crazy you found one for that cheap. you’re insanely lucky my guy. i saw an almost perfect looking 2007 daytona charger for $6500 a few months ago and it sold in about 4 hours lol. the 2006-2010 chargers in good condition are hard as hell to find and if you do find them they’re sold in just a few hours or so
Heck yeah man thanks for the comment ! I bought my old SRT8 2007 for 11.5 a few years ago, and this RT for 4.5k . Nowadays the SRT is like 15k and the RT is 9-10k. I appreciate the comment, it’s a shame that people wreck these and beat them up.
@@Chowcago how many miles?
@@extroxfps SRT has 100 flat , this one had like 110k when I bought it. It’s at 122k now
Don't sleep on the Police Pursuit Chargers----you can find them at auction from police departments or used on lots and from private sellers. The V8 version is basically R/T mechanicals----with beefed up alternator, oil cooler, suspension----maybe even more side impact protection from what I have heard. They are sort of plain Jane, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing----it's a canvas for customization and underneath, it's R/T performance with law enforcement enhancements. Since a lot of people don't want a former police cruiser, I believe they often sell for less than the Civilian Chargers.
I’m stuck between a 07-08 rt or srt8
4500??? Wow you lucked out brother!
I have a 06 Daytona go-mango 😵💫🔥
Yoooo awesome man 🤟🏻
How many miles did u have on this one and the srt8 when u bough them
RT had 110k the SRT had 100k . Paid 11.5 for SRT8
yo where did you get those seats
I had a 2007 R/T Daytona until recently. It had 65000 miles and was immaculate. I sold it for the equivalent of 20.000$
I got a 2008 RT sitting in the garage with only 48k miles steel blue in color. It’s clean like a virgin pussy.
Mileage on your’s?
🔥
Thank you 💪🏻
Thank you 💪🏻
@@Chowcago do you plan on mods ?
@@uncleron9651 for sure ! Starting off small and mostly aesthetic wise, but plan on trying a few things with it !
I’m literally looking for any reason to buy this one I just found
Hell yeah, did you end up getting one? Keep me updated if so. Thank you for the comment! More Charger videos coming soon!
I’m lookin at one that is only for 3,5k Buh I offered 3 grand for it and she said yes has 186 thousand miles on it super clean and well cared I think I should buy what y’all think?
Yes sir I think you should go for it !
Still not a lot of people can afford $6,000 for a v8 Charger cuz I tried I couldn’t get it and I love chargers and I couldn’t buy one my only option to buying a charger at least was a 2.7 v6 charger cuz that’s all I can afford even then I had to spend money to fix it and it has a lot dents that I’m taking out myself but I still love it
For sure ! I completely agree. I might pick up a 2.7 for winter. A charger is a charger ! Whether it’s a v6 or a v8, it still looks awesome ! What color do you have ?
Is there any more expensive maintenance ?
Eh, mostly just suspension for me personally. I have an update video over the Charger coming soon where I talk about maintenance! Make sure to sub 😁🤟🏻
Where did you get the front bumper ?
The front bumper is completely stock. The Road and Track package come with this front bumper and front spoiler.
@@Chowcago is that just a front splitter then thats added on? Im curious whats the difference cause I have an 08 R/T
@@thog7614 yes it’s a front splitter. It comes stock on the Road and Track package. Gives it a awesome look!
I felt bad and sold this kid my old 2008 V6 charger still ran good with over 100 thousand miles and had a exhaust system one month later kid destroyed it.... I got a 2014 charger RT AWD
I sold my SRT8 and a week later the guy totaled it….. still makes me depressed lol. People really don’t drive these thing safely.
@@Chowcago they got A man car when they should of started with A damm Prius pshh lol
I just bought a 2006 Dodge Charger RT 2 weeks ago
Bet you got it for a good deal too ! I see the 2006s go pretty cheap.
@@Chowcago unfortunately I paid the same price you did for the 2008 4500$ but it is in mint condition 1 owner older gentleman you’ve made me want to post a video on it.
@@sektorthegoat3146 that’s still a good price for a 1 owner RT. Sounds like a win in my book! Any good condition RT under 6k is something I’d buy in a heartbeat everytime.
@@Chowcago I made a video check it out
I just got an 06 RT as well for $4800. I like them better than the new ones. I don't like that notch in the sides.
08 SRT8 for my first car!
My dream car rn
I just got one 2006 rt
Nice for how much ??
@@Chowcago 2006 rt 42k m I'll les $8,000. Midnight blue ,white interior
Love that color, congrats !
found one for 10k, 123k miles and in good condition . is it worth?
That’s about what they are going for rn. I’ve been offered 10k on mine at 120k miles. A few years ago it would be a 6k car, but sadly now 10k is about a normal deal on it. Might be worth it! Up to you man
There pretty cool to ride but maintenance really fucking me up rn😂
Yeah man I have some pricey maintenance on the charger and my Audi A4 coming up lol it’s going to break my pockets for sure 😂
Looking to get one right now about to upgrade from a 06 mitsubishi galant 🤣
That’s a good upgrade for sure lol what year are you looking at ?
Same year as my car and dont get me wrong the 2.4 galant gets up😂but it just isnt fast enough for me
Should I get this as a first car
I’d say hell yeah!!!
Where can you look to find one ?
I found mine on the Facebook market place ! That’s your best bet to find them cheap, but they might be a little beat up.
@@Chowcago it’s cuz I’m only 16 😭😂 but idk I might have to wait a little longer to get one but i lowkey need a car
@@Urgfbsf the 3.5 V6 is cheap and honestly a good option, but if you want that hemi power a 5.7 or 6.1 is the way to go but they are pricey. Hopefully you get one soon! I’ll be posting more charger videos soon!
@@Chowcago Alr bet ima sub n turn on notis for sure
Thanks man 🙏
I wish to see take offs and flybys from the the out side of the car
Next video I’ll add some for sure.
@@Chowcago thanks 🙏
Are these stick shift?
Nope, from my knowledge none of the recent chargers are manual (might be wrong)
