  • Earlier I drove a Dodge Charger RT. It was pretty crap. Can this Magnum, a very close relation, be any better?

Wanted one since the first ones came out...took me 14 years to get one but it was worth the wait! This car was maintained and kept in awrsome condition.

    Glad you enjoyed our American Magnum just as we enjoy so many of the European cars! An upate on The Magnum. The Magnums hold their value quite well! The rarest of all Magnums is the 2008 SRT8...prices range from $20,000 to 40,000 low miles, untampered and condition of these hotrods is the factor.
    I love Magnums as you can tell. Not only owning one but I own a Mopar Muscle car restoration shop, working on from late 1960s to 1974 Mopars from the American Muscle Car erea ( the ones that started it all ) Chargers, Challengers, Cudas, Road Runners, Demons, Dusters...you get the jest!
    When drag racing was at its peak in America.
    All cars, speed can be relative but, as you say in America we like the big Cubic displacement! The feeling of 'torque' off the line, always puts a smile on your face.
    I also love the E-Type Jaguar ! So appreciate a variety of different kinds of muscle!
    My Dad owning several 1950s Jags such as the XK 120, 150 etc and brothers with many American muscle...car crazy is definitely in my blood!
    So the Magnum fits in there quite nicely! The Magnum is really what started all the newest Performance Mopars today..such as the HellCat Widebody ( does not disappoint ) as well as the insane Track Hawk @ 707hp!
    These sound like great test cars for you!
    Thanks for your great Video about the Magnum! 🖤

    I LOVE my Magnum SRT8. The SXT I had before that was reliable but just OK. For what these cars cost, I think they have done very well. Is it going to keep up with an M3 or M5? Nope. But it also costs peanuts in comparison (to both purchase and/or maintain.). I got a hitch for my SRT8 and can even haul lumber if needed! I'm tempted to buy another and put it in a time capsule so I can drive these things for the rest of my life.

Fair enough if you think I'm a prude but bear in mind it will also effect your YT revenue. I swear like mad during the day but never in front of my son.
