Do a Charger vs Challenger vid
Good and bad about the video-
Good- It didn’t disappoint, when I get the notifications I know I’ve got a 10-15 min break in my day where I can just enjoy some great content.
Bad- EVERY TIME I watch one of your videos.....I can’t get my F*#*king challenger soon enough!
All Seasons RC lol 👍👍👍 thanks!!!

#1 was exactly the reason I bought my 2019 Dodge Challenger Scat Pack‼️ To take it a step further on the retro look, I went with the SHAKER‼️ Get a big smile on my face every time I step out into the garage😃👍💯
My 2015 Dodge Charger R/T has 121,000 miles and still runs like a champ. I had one major issue with the cylinoids but other than that take care of them and they will take care of you.
Couldn't agree more with you on the 3 reasons to love a Challenger, LOVE my 2020 Scat Pack Wide Body in F8!
The last true muscle car
Just got a Challenger myself after owning 4 Chargers in a row. Love it. Great video OCM
GREAT VIDEO!!!!! U NAILED IT!!!!! I have a 2015 SRT392 and I FRIGGIN LOVE IT!!!!!
The ability to make it yours and the classic lines of a true muscle car are why I got mine. Great video and great car!
OCMotivator is 100% telling the truth!! Watch his eyes, as he's telling the story he consistently looks up and to the left, showing he's telling the truth, and that action shows he has given strong thought, and emotion behind what he's telling his viewers!! Yes, you can trust OCMotivator 100% the gaze of the eyes never lie :)
My SRT8 has 129,000 miles on it. Still runs a 5 second zero to sixty time. And a 12.9 quarter mile. I absolutely agree with you on how Dodge made the Challenger look even more intimidating,and beautiful, than the original version. I'm a postal contractor and I can use it to do my pickups at the end of the day because it has such a spacious trunk. It gives a whole new meaning to express mail. and it also makes work not so much like work. I like this car so much that I'm going to keep it even when I upgrade to a Redeye.
Awesome! And I don't blame you at all. The first Challenger I ever drove was a white with black stripes SRT8 in Austin Texas while I was there on business and had a weekend to blow. I had a crazy idea to go buy a fun car and drive it back to California instead of fly. The first dealer I went to had that car and it blew my mind. I decided not to do the drive because it was 2000 miles and I didn't want to miss the LA car show coming up. But I got home and that weekend bought my first Challenger. Then the obsession took a very expensive turn and here I am with a Redeye. lol
@@ocmotivator mine is the hemi orange. I get sooooo many compliments on it. On the other hand,if they don't see the rumblebee or hellcat badge they tend to think it's v6 and proceed to make a huge mistake... Lol. TTYL
You're not wrong my friend, these reasons, among many more, are why I have owned 3 of them! As always great video dude!
I loved my challengers but I found a great deal a charger. My first mopar v8. I love it
The Video is ON POINT! Love the car OC - Keep up the good work sir!!!
Just bought a 2021 Dodge Challenger 392 waiting for it to arrive. So excited
New challenger owner love the vibe of your channel dawg
Great video again! You're so right about it being the perfect car, its inspired me to book my flights to CA for March (covid dependant of course) and ill be on the look out for a 2018 scat pack! to drive back to Switzerland!
1 week ago I Traded in my 2008 Hyundai Sonata for a 2020 Challenger Scatpack, dynamics and shaker packages, 6 speed manual in frostbite blue. Major mid life crisis and I am loving every second of it, car is beyond fun to drive and it looks fantastic. Enjoy your videos, and your car is amazing!
It’s great how your not the biggest channel on CZcams but your consistency with uploads is awesome! Love watchin the vids!
Good point about Challenger. I love my 2018 R/TScatpack 6.4L with - now - 500 HP. So, far after 10,000 miles, I had to replace the centre console where the radio switch is located. All physical controls stopped working. Never had a part of the dash fail on other cars before.
Thx. And I was binge watching your channel yesterday dude! Pretty cool that you share your hauling experiences 👍👍
Ocmotivator let me tell you something. In my right mind before I started watching ur videos would I ever imagine being able to have anything other than a scat pack Challenger. I love the scat pack. But last week made a wrong turn so I decided to use the local dodge dealership to turn around. Well of course a salesman catches me and did his spill. But the hook line was I have a hellcat. I said has long has it not the family car one I will look at it. He said nope it a Challenger. Well to make a long story short the day after I put wheels and tire and a new cold air intake on my scat pack. I walk out of the dealership with a widebody hellcat Challenger. Ur motivation quotes up lifting people in ur videos thank you keep doing what ur doing. One last thing was the first person I wanted send a picture to was u just to say thank you
Wow!!!! That is awesome! I just saw the photo on IG. That is one beautiful car!!!!!!!! Congratulations!!!! Have fun with it! 👍👍
OCMotivator I just realized that I could send photos in a message. I am still learning that app
I absolutely agreed with you on your statement of the new camaro🙌
I was the one who recommended that wood with the carpet..looks good came out great
Awesome! Thanks and it was a great idea and I still have all of my fingers attached too. 👍👍
My favorite car.. can’t wait to have one.. my dream car
I agree! I love my challenger!
i just bought a v6 challenger about month ago and i get looks everytime i drive it, hoping to trade up to a scatpack or hellcat in a few years
Great advice ocm especially for me as a 19 RT chally blacktop driver...
Another great video!!!
I agree with you about reliability. I have owned many Mustangs. My 2016 Mustang GT350 had issues. My 2018 had issues too. My 2020 Challenger Scat Pack Shaker has been great. This is my 2nd Challenger.
The customizability is increased with the Challenger. Example: you can chrome out the trim, gas cap, chrome wrap the front and rear bumper a bit, retro fit and size out the wheels. Bam you have a very retro throwback of a very modern vehicle. You cannot do that so simply with a modern Mustang; maybe with the 2012 model year, definitely not with the modern Mustang or Camaro. I understand entirely that many people simply don't want to anyway, but it's for the fact that the body style is so iconic that it's effortless to do so.
I think my next Mod will be the Pedal commander! 😎Ⓜ️💪🏼.
Not the $70 one! Lol 😆
Got my scat pack shaker and I love it!
That car is clean AF. You misspoke and said Pedal Commander. My Roar Pedal is nice.
Whoops! lol. 14 takes and 3 camera overheating moments and I'm shocked it got anything right. lol
@OCMotivator: You may wanna look at this forum thread regarding the cost of brake job replacements. It is highly unlikely barring some kind of critical failure that your rotors would need to be replaced, and the brake jobs on these cars are pretty easy to do in your driveway. 4k is obscenely expensive for something you could do for a few hundred at your house:
www.hellcat.org/threads/dealer-quotes-4-000-brake-job.58985/
Ya, thanks! I almost passed out when they told me those prices. My friend has a Bentley and it's not that much.
I agree. The rotors very rarely need replaced. And if you change the pads yourself,even if you use high prices pads, should only cost about 150 bucks and about an hour's worth of time. Easiest pads to change that I've ever seen.
Put sound deadening along inside of trunk lid if your rattling a lot will increase dbs and sound cleaner
One of the first things I did. Check it out 👍 czcams.com/video/fevLdETrMGI/video.html
The 3 dislikes are guys that think Fart can mufflers are kool on Hondas
if this car broke down every few days, I still love it. Gorgeous car period
I Just seen that Ghostbuster car on the way home from work on Friday.
They make them to break!! Most of the people that buy those vehicles don't normally keep them that long. They just buy or lease the new one!! I just got a T/A 392 and I LOVE it!! #MOPARORNOCAR
definitely thinking about getting the pedal box now. I thought the same with the commander the colors don't match & throws off the interior.
Always awesome video
I love my chrome wheels 😂😂😂
Have you thought of getting a carbon fiber hood? some car weight loss would be cool to see. and get a strut bar it improves handiling on corners and more
deadboy I haven’t but that’s an interesting idea for sure. I’ll look into both of those. 👍
That car is so perfect... one day 🙏🏾
Love my 2019...anybody know of a challenger club in LA county?
thank you OC..
To me the 1969 Camaro with head light covers , spoiler , mag wheels and a big block under the hood is a beautiful car and the new ones don't even look like a Camaro .
Love my Scatpack
The only car id say I like better is a gt500 in my opinion the 2020 anyway but both are great cars
Why was your Hellcat brake cost so expensive? If you change the pads before they wear your rotors it should only be the couple of $100 cost of the pads?
It's comforting to know that you could only find 3 reasons.
You’re easily comforted.
Are you leasing or financing the hillcat ? & in your opinion what do think it’s better ?
I bought the Hellcat. The lease offer on the Hellcat was bad due to the price and ultimate depreciation of the car. I generally lease though because I don’t keep cars long and I don’t keep high end cars when they’re out of warranty as repair costs combined with depreciation can rapidly outrun any logical reasons to keep the car. Yes the Dodge is super reliable but that changes with any car as they get older. Leasing to me is great because I get a new car every 3 years and I only pay for what I use and if I can wait til the 3 years is up, I have no negative equity to pay or roll over. I believe the only reason to buy is if you plan to keep that car for 5+ years and you can keep the miles down and repairs at a minimum and you won’t get the itch for the new models. For me buying my Hellcat was ok since it’s a business expense and a second pleasure vehicle and the interest rate I got down to 3.4% which is like free money. I leased my scat pack and my RT and my last BMW and it was a much easier move up process and cheaper. I also don’t believe in putting any money down on leases since you’re renting the car in essence. Why would you put a down payment to rent anything. Just put the money in the bank, and let the leasing company carry the whole thing.
@@ocmotivator Thank you so much I appreciate you , much love ♥️
Correction: Challengers 2015+ are based on the 71, not the 70...
I referenced the 2009. I didn’t go into the updates. Same point still stands though.

Chrome wheels contrast against black very very well. You like old school you should like chrome wheels!!!
Nooooooooooooooooo....chrome. Old cars, yes, new cars no. Chrome is the entry level standard for all base model cars. Once chrome plastic became over used by automakers to make cheap cars look more expensive, it became so overplayed that it's considered cheap looking. Bronze & pewter shades, polished aluminum, and carbon fiber have replaced chrome. Powder coating and matte is still hanging on too. Just is what it is. But to each their own. I saw a guy rockin True Religion jeans and an Affliction shirt the other day. Style is still and always will be subjective as well as influenced by affluence.
@@ocmotivator well it's just my opinion but I tire of the all black theme black black black black black black black black black black
Just me
I’ve been looking into getting a hellcat or hellcat red eye but my dealer is telling me that on the 2021 I can’t get a 6spd I can only get a automatic what are your thoughts
Rob Prewett yes this is true. The Hellcat Redeye is way too much power for a manual. The technology in the automatic is far superior than any human can duplicate with a clutch and gearshift. If it’s about manual enjoyment then get a Scat Pack manual and have a blast. But the reality is that trying to shift a car with either 707HP or almost 800hp on a track with a manual is a little archaic and just doesn’t make good track sense. So they got rid of the manual on these high HP cars. With all of that said, I agree, there’s nothing like a cool manual! But not going to happen on a Redeye unfortunately. And for good reason.
How do you like the black color....is it really a bitch to keep clean?? Looking at a Octane red challenger scat and the dealer also has a black challenger scat both wide bodies....reason i'm asking....thanks.
So yes, black is a pain in the ass. But I got it ceramic coated right away for $600 before it needed any paint correction so I can literally drive through a touch less car wash real fast and the water rolls off of it. It’s pretty amazing. I wanted that indigo blue color but there wasn’t any and then I saw this black one and I couldn’t resist.
@@ocmotivator Got it. Thanks for the response....going to the dealership tomorrow to finalize paperwork.
I'm so scared about the next gen challenger look because it's when I'm gonna be able to afford it
2019 charger scatpack all door panels have separated, and radio screen bubbles up and peeled
These cars don’t like heat lol
Always keep a window slightly cracked open in the summer and this wont happen
With the LinkQ, did you connect the negative wire to the ground point in the trunk or did you make a new ground point? I went to the ground point in the trunk and seem to have some system noise that keeps the LinkQ on when it should be off.
Aj Perkins I just jumped it right into where my big negative wire goes into my amp. No noise or anything. Works great. I did have to take the LinkQ apart and remove the auto remote jumper and use an actual remote lead from the trunk fuse box as it wouldn’t turn off.
@@ocmotivator Thats the issues I have is it won't turn off and I get the deep bass when there's no music playing. About to watch your video about the fuse box to see what fuse you used and try that. So you have the remote in from the fuse box and remote out to the amp correct?
Aj Perkins yes. And in the video I show which fuse to use too that’s perfect for the remote. But the not so fun part is that you have to completely take apart the LinkQ and remove the jumper from the pc board to disable the auto remote feature. And if you need help with that just message me on Instagram and I’ll show you exactly what to do. It’s actually pretty easy but just hard to see on the pc board.
Sadly they won’t be making any camaros anymore
Tru.....
I will always keep my Challenger
Lemme get #3!

@SRT_Adi on insta
Absolutely agree with you about resurrecting the classics. Mopar always does them right. Oh, BMW is garbage!
I’ll never get why people like blacked out vehicles. I mean, blacked out vehicles take the eye absolutely nowhere. Like, their just one big mass of darkness.
Mopar or No Car!!
That's why you have Sport control for quicker response . I think its a waste of time and money.
Seriously? You think that’s the same thing? Did you listen to anything I said or just comment your opinion with zero experience trying one?
@@ocmotivator That's my opinion !
Based on what? Quantify it please. Throttle response has nothing to do with Sport Mode. So what is your opinion based on? You can’t have one without some basis for it otherwise your opinion stands to help no one. I want to learn dude. Quantify your opinion please. Or I have to delete your unsubstantiated “opinion” I’m opposition of my facts and quantifiable experience. 😉
@@ocmotivator And mine is a manual and I don't think it would be any good anyway >Thanks ! To me I wouldn't put it on my car ! On Sport control . You do have quicker throttle response .Mines a 2018 challenger.
Have a nice day !
Wait, you went from BMW to Dodge?
I’ve had both for about 3 years but finally I got rid of my 740 nightmare and got the Hellcat and got my wife the bmw x3m40i and I got a little commuter car for work so I don’t kill my Hellcat.
Right on...Ive been following for some time now, just forgot about the beemers....lol. great vids and awesome content. My 1st challenger on the horizon, after my lease is up. Been a Ford guy most of my life.
@@ocmotivator what commuter car you are rocking now?

No disrespect but the widebody ricer fenders won’t be as sought after as the clean lines on the narrow body challenger in years to come..
Yung Methadone well a 797hp Redeye without the widebody is an ice skate. Almost bought one and it was almost hard to believe they even made it without the widebody. I.e. wider tires and huge brakes like the demon.
@@ocmotivator The Demon actually has smaller brakes then the Hellcat and redeye
Frankie 072 whoops. You’re right. One of my reasons in another video why I didn’t want a demon. 👍👍. I just suspect the widebodies will be much more rare many years to come since so fewer are being sold. But we’ll see. 👍
@@ocmotivator I agree with the functionality but as far as looks go, the narrow body looks better. The Widebody kit takes away some of the clean lines.
Yung Methadone that’s subjective and your opinion. I see nothing unclean about the lines on the Widebody. To each their own.
FIRST!!!!
