Same here…exact year and car

Nice review, my friend! Just got my first muscle car about 10 days ago.....a 2022 Challenger RT in the Smoke Show color, with the blacktop package features.... it's a dream come true! I can't stop smiling when I drive it! It's an amazing car and has changed driving from being a chore, point A to point B, to being hella fun!! 🙂 I'm so very impressed with the car!!

I love my 2018 R/T! Pretty much same interior features, but that moonroof makes all the difference! The cloth seats feel great and I’ll take that over leather where I’m at any day! Yeah I wanted a Hellcat, but wth imma do with all that daily driving? R/T is definitely the way to go if you just want to have fun!

Yes! The R/T is perfect if you just want some performance but don’t want a V6 engine. The V8 sound isn’t watered down at all and really that made it more enjoyable to drive!

R/T is a great car, especially for a daily driver. I was torn between a Mustang GT and a Challenger R/T. I was literally at the dealership about to purchase the Mustang GT when I thought twice and went with the R/T. No hate on the Mustang and I still like that car, but the Challenger has that "it" factor that doesn't wear off.

Terry P I hear ya. I had a 2011 GT myself loved that thing. But then life happened. Jumped into a Chalenger a few years later and completely fell in love!

It's believed in the 5.7 community that this car actually makes 400 HP and Dodge purposely underrated the engine for insurance purposes. That and they didn't want the little brother to be as close on paper with its big brother in the scat pack. I would have to agree with them as my '18 RT Plus feels great when accelerating

I'd agree with that as well. I've heard from several sources that the 5.7 is actually around 400 hp stock.

The time honored definition of what constitutes a muscle car is having at least 1 horsepower for 13# of body weight. Any car is a muscle car if it meets that definition. If a car weighs 3700#, it needs 285 hp under the hood to qualify as a muscle car. If it weighs 4200#, it needs 323 hp. It's really quite simple.

fantastic review! great to see ones that are thorough like this, thanks

@@eddiemcars yes indeed and matter of fact, I bought a 2020 Challenger over the weekend.

I'd agree with the size comment - I was a bit intimidated by how big it is in real life the first time I drove one. It looks normal sized in pictures because it's in proportion, but everything is just massive. You get used to it though, pretty fast. 😊

I actually test drove a white 2022 yesterday. It was an RT Plus, Automatic with no sun roof. Wow, in under 5 miles I was in heat for it! Great looks, sound , power, acceleration, and comfort. I WIILL have one before the end of this Summer of 2023.

I have a base R/T and the only complaint I had was the sound system. Crutchfield has a set of Kicker brand speakers for about $325 and they were worth every penny. More volume and better fidelity

very good objective und thorough review👌🏼

@twiceonsundays

What sport mode does is open the exhaust valves wider and holds gears longer to produce peak horsepower. That's why you get the louder exhaust note and the car feels more aggressive. The R/T is fast and will be PLENTY enough car. The 392 is even faster, and will be more than enough car for the road.

Just don't like the colors the dealers in my area stock. Mostly white and black or maybe silver. Boring. I wanted plum crazy and there were none in a 500 mile radius and the dealers don't want to help if it isn't on the lot, so I passed and lost interest.

they literally put a 4" subwoofer in the exhaust to make it more bass'ed
