    Special thanks to our Patreons for their support of the channel! Durango Hellcat or Escalade V?
  • @johndixon8511
    Agreed. Take the Durango. Both are kinda stupid vehicles, but they are meant to be outrageous fun. So take the one that does that best…the Durango!
  • I know they don't update their models that often, but I'm really digging the Mopar design language over the last decade or so.
  • @S8ER
    Probably worth mentioning the Durango is a midsize performance oriented SUV and the Escalade is a full size luxury oriented SUV. They don’t exactly compare to one another and I can’t imagine anyone cross shopping these them but it is a common matchup in reviews. Edit: also worth mention the reason for the manual shifting issues is the laggy tach. Once you realize the tach is waaaay behind it becomes a bit easier to manage the paddle shifting (I set the shift lights with the tach delay in mind).
  • Very different kind of review than you get from the other channels like TFL, Alex on Autos, etc. Thanks for bringing something new to the table.
  • Also, I don’t see how the Cadillac justifies a 60k more price tag on it. I honestly don’t think the Cadillac is worth that much.
  • @cdbnum1
    Just bought one same color! Still breaking it in so haven’t been able to get on it
  • @MATRIX9905
    if ur weird and want mpg in the auto setup put trans in eco awd in track stability in street sus in street steering street
  • @LeadfootLou
    I don’t own a Durango Hellcat but if I did I wouldn’t like someone calling it a family SUV. Most people that would buy a vehicle like this live up north. They would purchase a performance coupe but it’s not practical up north. So we buy performance SUVs.
  • Fun fun fun, a bit late on power mayb lol coming outa corners, looks like you might benefit from looking a bit farther ahead lol ... I wish I was there taking a few laps with y guys lol
  • Doesn’t Durango sticker for considerably less than the Escalade V with more power?
  • @BrianBTh4G
    They didn’t bring it back for 2022, on 21 and 23 so far…
  • @OmgThatsMe
    The Durango is such a beautiful car, currently I’m choosing between a Durango hellcat and a jeep trackhawk. But for trackhawk these days they run for about $70k - $120k with more then 30,000 miles and you could find a Durango for about $60k - $80k with less then 25,000 miles. It’s a very hard choice to make
  • It wasn’t brought back for 22 actually and I think that’s the reason why it’s pretty pricey now. It used to start at 81k in 2021 and go up from there but now in 23 it start at 90 or 91k. I also heard for 24 it’s gonna start even higher 😂.
  • And uh, just which one has a higher tow rating for its size and class? Remember, or consider this, the Durango is a true cross-over. It's not on a truck platform and it's not an SUV. It is on a CAR chassis. So, which one gets the nod?
  • @ENEN54
    Exactly I have r/t 2023 I love it had a dude with Escalade try race me 😼 I wasn’t in mood that day but underneath of Cadillac I don’t like setup too low it coulda been done better in my eyes 👀 I would never spend that time funds on Cadillac but for free yes 👍🏾 I would take one 🤣
  • Durango is badass! I'll take that! The Escalade is ugly to me. Looks like a rolling box.
