The Dodge Demon Gets an Exorcism in New Commercial

The Dodge Demon is one of the coolest vehicles on the market.  It is impossible to see it in action and not be able to take your eyes off of it.  It’s perfectly designed for showing off.  In the hands of experienced drivers and film-makers, the result is beautiful.

Pennzoil has a history of making SRT vehicles look amazing on screen.  They did it for the Dodge SRT Viper in their video “The Last Viper” and have brought that same vision to the Dodge Demon.  Their lastest video is “Exorcising the Demon” and it is just awesome.

The video is a muscle-car junkies dream come true.  No talking, no breakdown of the mechanical side of the Dodge; simply raw and beautifully shot footage of the Demon racing down streets with the constant roar of an engine that sounds like it is about to break the sound-barrier.  The driver races it down streets and around corners as the world around it bends and shakes to its power.  Check it out here:

Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat Causes Existential Crisis

Has a car ever given you an existential crisis?  One writer for Paste Magazine seems to have had his world turned topsy-turvy after spending some time in a 2016 Dodge Charger Hellcat.

John Brandon, writing for Paste, was given a chance to take the 2016 Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat for a review drive.  The experience seems to be a life-changing one.  It all started with the choice of two keys.

For those in the know, the Charger SRT Hellcat comes with two different keys.  The red key is the one that gives the driver access to the true power in that Hemi engine.  Picking that red key, compared to the scene in the Matrix where Morpheus gives Neo the red pill, seems to be what caused the existential driving crisis.

The speeds that he reached allowed him to transcend his typical mind set, to launch him into a new dimension of thinking.  In this space, he transformed into the Star Child and realized the secrets to the meaning of life.  All kidding aside, it really was the transformation of driving a high-speed powered vehicle at speeds one typically doesn’t experience.

The review is light on details but the experience the writer had with the Charger Hellcat is an amusing one and definitely worth your time for the chuckle alone.  Check it out.

The 2015 Woodward Dream Cruise started off with a blast and has been more successful than ever.  More than 10,000 auto enthusiasts showed up to make sure the 2015 show was the most memorable yet and to show that they definitely want to see a return of the event in 2016.

One of the coolest competitions was the drag race.  Not only was it a chance for drivers to show off their cars and skill in an old-fashion race, but Dodge had a prize for the ultimate winner in the form of a new 6.2-liter supercharged HEMI V-8.  The winner was Brandon Philips with his 1969 Dodge Super Bee.

The other major race event was Richard Rawling’s Gas Monkey Garage vs Roadkill’s “General Mayhem.”  The two competed in a drag race to see whose supped up car was the best.  Rawlings brought a customized 1967 Dodge Dart with a Hellcat powertrain inside.  Roadkill brought a 1968 Dodge Charger, also with a Hellcat powertrain.  The ultimate winner was Gas Monkey’s Dart making me wish to see a Dodge Dart Hellcat in the near future.

People who attended the show definitely got to see all kinds of celebrations of cars.  They were given the change to take rides in the new SRT Hellcats as well as new Dodge Vipers.  It is certainly a show to remember.
