    I work in the car rental business, your reviews have come in handy having a little bit more knowledge on our vehicles than is expected. My customers have even noticed and appreciate the amount of information in able to provide.

    I just bought one of these and am impressed with the build quality. Dash is seamlessly put together. Ride is very smooth and quiet. Power is ample and very drivable with quick downshifts when needed. Also excellent gas mileage for such a large roomy car.

      I've had a 2015 300S since virtually new, and it's been holding up fine without any issues. I had a Dodge Ram 1500, which I sold at 260,000 miles without any power-train issues. I have friends with older 300s and Magnums with over 250,000, and even a couple over 300,000 miles.

    Great review! Such a beautiful underrated car, would love to have one. If you ever feel like doing a retro review would you consider a 1998 Ford Explorer 4Door with the 4.0 SOHC 5-Speed Auto? My parents had this car when I was a kid it would be interesting to see how well it would do compared to new cars thanks.

  • @bonzoschlacendaker1057

    Excellent analysis on what appears to be a surprisingly very good car. If it just had a hood ornament, I'd buy one. I still might. Despite the lack of ornamentation. It really does appear to be a strikingly well thought-out vehicle. And are commentator. did an excellence job.

  • @9546aw
    @9546aw Před 9 měsíci

    Actually a nice car. Just be careful, if you find drops of oil on the garage floor or driveway, replace the oil cooler immediately, preferably with an all aluminum cooler, not the plastic cooler the factory installs on all Pentastar v6's. Due to heat from the engine the cooler is subject to developing leaks over time and eventual catastrophic failure. It happened to me, still like the car though.

  • @ThomasFG
    @ThomasFG Před 7 lety

    I think what really kills the acceleration even on the V6 is the final drive even with an 8 speed auto - factory isn't it a 2.73 ? - 8 gears - even a 3.23/3.27 would help drastically but not ruin fuel economy (for those worried about gas mileage) - that super low final drive kills all acceleration on the V6 - the ZF box is fantastic but yeah.... love the 300 regardless

      +Sebastian Rosenberg Yep, it actually turns on the reverse camera if you put it in reverse (interestingly enough). I was surprised by that. You can do it on the highway, not that you should. It won't engage the gear until you've basically stopped, so it's the equivalent of putting it in neutral.

    @husseinadil6290 Před 7 lety

    I just have test driven my friend's 2013 chrysler 300 V6 and i was shocked of how much cheap material was involved in the interior, the engine and the transmission felt a litle rough but they were responsive, and the way i heard the sound of the engine made me feel that chrysler was made lots of shortcuts of isolating the cabin and this is no good for a car that is marketed as a premium sedan.
    although it's a rear wheel drive sedan and the way it looks on the road attract people's eyes around you. It just needs some little tweaks.

    • @OSTKCabal
      @OSTKCabal Před 7 lety +3

      The 2015s and up are a huge improvement over the 2013 models. By that time, the 2013s were in dire need of an update, and I think Chrysler waited a couple years too long to refresh the interior.

    • @husseinadil6290
      @husseinadil6290 Před 7 lety

      WarmSoftKitty Sadly I'm not lying, this was my experiment with this car.
      Can you prove that the cabin is well isolated? If i have never driven one then how i felt the sound proofing is poor?
      I'm not going to be aggressive with you sir, but from my understanding this car looks like your first premium sedan so you felt that I'm lying.
      So, tell me please how do you see the quality of the black plastics around the info screen between the tachometer and the speedometer? and how do you see the quality of the center console?
      If you were comparing this car to a hyundai accent then sure it will have a premium interior and i would be a liar.

    • @husseinadil6290

      @husseinadil6290 Před 7 lety

      We are talking about affordable premium options not the top end sedans, are you with me in this matter?
      I believe the 300 is marketed far from it's true position, if it was truly fit the description then we should have seen more selling numbers for this model.
      I hope for the best, because i myself love RWD cars.

I have a brand new 300s with less than 300 miles on it and my entire front suspension looks like the parts came off the Titanic and I'm not talking surface rust. I learned after I discovered this issue a week after purchasing the vehicle and Chrysler won't stand behind any repairs! I will never purchase another Chrysler/Dodge vehicle again after having to deal with this problem!

    It's dumb that they put an actual coolant temp gauge on the dash that shows accurate readings. People who don't know much about cars will look at that and see it changing (with the thermostat opening and closing) and think there's something wrong with the car.
