    The car industry needs more CEO’s like Tim
  • An actual CEO who knows what he is talking about, with passion ! Hats off for this man!
  • @mini2nut67
    Tim is a rare breed the automotive executive ranks. A CEO who knows as much about the mechanics of a modern automobile as he does public speaking, spreadsheets, etc.
  • I'm really going to miss this Era of Dodge. They owned the muscle car market for nearly a decade. Hell of a ride.
  • @aconfusedazn
    Seeing a CEO as knowledgeable and passionate as Tim is really refreshing. He was also surprisingly transparent and why they did certain things and couldn’t do other things.
  • @dougshaw2944
    Jay's the man. Could be retired & playing with his cars on his time, but keeps on doing this for us, even after those recent issues. Thank you, sir!
  • @scorpio13617
    An unbelievable achievement from Tim and the team at Dodge!
  • @CodyC_n_AZ
    Jay Leno is freaking National Treasure! To see and hear jays laugh and massive smile just makes the world a better place for a moment! For a guy that has pretty much every badass car there ever was still get giddy about one is awesome! Love to see it and thanks for creating these videos Long Live the Leno!
  • “As long as the driver is not alcohol injected” 😂 Great line Jay
  • @mikewiley1007
    Jay is giggling like a little kid and it’s great to see. Amazing vehicle!!!
  • @hent1438
    Tim is definitely the Car Guy's CEO. It was also cool watching Jay chuckle like a little kid every time he mashed on the throttle. He's probably trying to decide whether to spec his out with the passenger seat for his wife or not lol...!! Either way, what an absolute animal. Kudos to Tim and his talented team at Dodge.
  • @cantcme1243
    Dodge is undoubtedly the all time king of muscle cars hands down they're always light years ahead of the game and even when they do a mic drop out of the game the other companies will still be playing catch up?!.."Dodge, the brotherhood of muscle"
  • I love Jay's enthusiasm! It's totally infectious! Makes a guy go "I WANT ONE"!
  • @Kenn_18
    Now that’s a real CEO, that knows his car! Hats off to Dodge for a great CEO and a great car!
  • This was a banger for sure. Awesome to see an American car company, with a super passionate CEO who talks about the product and gets excited as we do. Bravo Tim, Jay, and the still beating heart of muscle cars in our country!
  • Gotta love the CEO, so much knowledge and passion. Jays reactions are pure gold and what a Jobe the team at Dodge did, I want one so bad now.... I genuinely love this vehicle now
  • @HonJazzz
    I love how Jay’s casually flooring a 1025 HP car on the street with no seatbelt on. That’s a true hot rod guy right there! 🤙🏻
  • @chadmichael81
    I've seen so many of his videos and NEVER seen him this happy to test drive a car.
  • What makes this great is we've seen all the goodies Jay has and has driven and yet he's having a true blast driving this beast.
  • @CarsandCats
    You can't beat the instant throttle response and torque of a belt driven supercharger. I love mine.
