DID MOPAR VEHICLES RUIN CAR CULTURE? 

CORRECTION PRODUCTION OF THE FBODY ENDED 2002👑👑

🍗 horsepower wars got people out there thinking less than 1000whp is slow but they can’t even handle 500whp

Social Media is why the Car Culture is dead Social Media is why a lot of things in our modern society is no longer as valued or sacred anymore and horsepower is so numb now it’s crazy especially if you never felt 300HP in your life that’s a lot of horsepower if you never felt it before

This man has endless supply of references!!! a. Hauls more ass than (fill in the blank) b. Nastier than (fill in the blank)

Mopars didn’t ruin car culture it’s the clowns that drive them. From shitty mods to character themed builds to take overs.

The prowler was a real life hot wheels car. Used to love it when I was a kid 😂

Car culture became pop culture and that's what ruined it.

That crossover looks like it has 2 front ends on 1 damn vehicle 😂

Social media ruined car culture. Mopar ruined an entire generation's credit.

Facts: Prowler is actually the distant cousin to the Hellcat. Prowler was the catalyst for the SRT team. Also the V6 was on par with most V8’s at the time due it only weighing 2800lbs from its all aluminum chassis

Bruh 😂 not "nastier than a pastor taking a gas station pill mid service" 😂😂😂

Im in my 50s and I remember going out even after the advent of RU-vid and racing on the streets. We still respects the streets and didn’t act stupid. When these kids started doing them “take overs,” is when it all went down hill. They had no respect for no one. Then if a family would need to get through that buffoonery they would attack the family sometimes hurting people. What was worse was when they post that ish, and get all them likes and comments egging that crap on. I still go out, but the group I’m with, even though some kids are 30 years my junior, they know to respect and not bring attention to us as a group. I’m gonna chase that street car life till the day comes I stop breathing.

I was 21 in 2004 with a dsg 03 terminator. Those were the days and you are exactly right about everything you said.

You absolutely nailed it with this video bro. I was shocked at seeing the prowler engine choice. I couldn't believe the missed opportunity

The fact that Chevy never brought that Australian Holden UTE truck to America is a travesty

🍗 You are the only reason, why I downloaded tiktok. Can‘t get enough of that sauce. Keep doing you💪🏻🤙🏻

2005-2009 mustang GTs are underrated. I had one stock and it drove like it had a supercharger. Definitely had every bit of that of that horsepower that it says it did from Factory 🤣☝️

Ive been lucky enough to have the same terminator cobra since 2003. Mostly stock. Not even interested in putting up 7-800 horses anymore with all these factory cars doing it and it being so easy. Id rather have a balanced car than the fastest thing out there.

🍗 it was the hellcats for me. All of a sudden 700hp cars with no imagination showed up. Sure people started adding to them, but it felt like it was pointless. Then the clubs where I am from went tuners only and no v8s. Then it turned into a beef, and I bowed out. I do loud systems now.

2002 was the last year camero just saying 35 anniversary was one of my favorite cars slp twin stinger pipes

E55’s are the best bang for buck when tuning them.

Chevy SSR is no joke still my favorite vehicle. It's just so unique that I like it. Not practical but cool to me

I grew up in mopar family before the charger or challengers were even back. My dad had 73 challengers, what ruined dodge was kids,takeovers, and rappers.

I think I seen you on facebook first and you were talking about a rate Mitsubishi. The “ways less then an unborn baby” had me dead😂. Keep it up holmes, I love cars❤

Bro I don’t how you remember all this shot about these cars, your like a genius or something. I hope one. Day I can talk cars like you. For now all I can do is fuck shit up as I learn. I got this 89 ford crown Vic i started to disassemble the engine . I hope to put it back together better than it was before. Anyway keep doing your thing young man.

I live in KY. I feel like the divide between people has driven any one who is not into urban culture to stay away from car culture. 20 yrs ago you still saw young guys build what ever. Rat rods, lowriders, or just a clean classic or euro. Not any more.

appreciate the longer video and all the entertainment, would love more vids this length and even longer 🍗🍗🍗

You're one of the most knowledgeable guys on the platform, seriously a wealth of knowledge 🍗

BlackCarGuru, appreciate your hard work, humor, and knowledge. Keep crankin out those 🔥 🔥 🔥 videos. Continued success, My Brotha.

Dont put this evil on Mopar. Its not the car that ruined it, its the drivers that did....

As always I like a good breath of fresh air before work in the morning. Enjoyable video as always and the humor makes it that much better along with the facts about these cars. I hope you have a good morning and a great day today. Hopefully you have a good weekend and enjoy yourself whatever you get yourself into.

Lovin this longer format content!

Aye Guru when are you gonna talk about the vr6? Let’s get some German sleepers in this cookout

Love the video bro! Keep up the great work 👍🏾 🍗

This was very informative. Keep these reviews rolling brother!

Outstanding video. You really know your stuff. I got into the LS scene back in the mid 2000's and dove deep into all of this stuff. You are extremely well informed on these topics. I wish you continued success!

Brother you are to be honored. Your raw knowledge of engines is amazing

Just wanted to say I appreciate your content. I don't know enough to comfortably call myself a car guy yet but you make stuff that's both entertaining and helps me learn perspective.

good point.. back in 2009 i use to look up car meets on youtube.. 2016 came around i started to find them in chicago.. cause of facebook & social media!

keep up the excellent content bro…..by way of Chicago!!

Mopar ruined mopar by being mopar.

Subscribed today! Really dig your videos! Keep up the good work!

Glad to see another video from you, hitting the nail on the head and making it stupidly entertaining at that!

This is just history repeating itself, with cars that are designed based on the original muscle car wars of the late 60's and early 70's. You make some great videos bro, you should do one about the old muscle car wars too.

You know what I actually liked this truck SSR, I would love to have one and do a complete frame off resto mod and do LS Engine swap with a Whipple Super Charger and a serious interior. Have a custom Kandy paint job and some mean ass Borla full exhaust

🍗 love your videos brother, VERY informative and funny. Keep up the great work and God bless 💯

Can’t wait to see the evolution if your channel bro

Yu spot on as usual bro Only thing I gotta say is Mercedes worked with doge in the building of the 06 charger which made the engine mil spec and extremely hard to work on which is why it’s the first and last one they did together

Love this! I've been watching but just subscribed

I’m surprised you even mentioned the E55 M113K engine, amazing to see it being appreciated. Just sad to see that the horsepower wars kinda ruined everything, because back in the early 2000s 350 hp used to be seen as decently good and high, but now today if you have 300 hp you’re seen as slow and having a weak car. It really numbs how powerful 300 hp is. And yes the people who own mopars are the ones who kinda screwed everything up, they’re the wannabes to be fair. Horsepower isn’t everything but damn do they make it seem like it is.

You started the video dissing the SSR & Prowler based on appearance and being under powered. But you end the video implying the muscle wars inadvertently ruined car culture with insane HP, thus making performance irrelevant. Sounds like the Prowler and SSR were unique ideas, were as the later years car manufacturers were just trying to keep up with the Jones…

🍗 love the longer content, brother. Keep it up 👍🏾

Yoooooo great vids can’t wait to see your car

The prowler: vintage looks, vintage power.

Thanks for making this good car content homeboy appreciate ya

I remember being 19 buying a 06 Srt8 300. Everyone said I was spoil but idgaf cause I was driving what most adults couldn’t afford and I still have three car with 274k Miles on it

We love you too. Thank you for the content it's great

Keep the videos coming Bro.

Agreed for the most part but I'd like to add that A) I personally like the SSR :P B) Mopar didn't do it alone, we can also blame stagnant wages (young people can't afford even entry level sports cars anymore) and the proliferation of pickup trucks and SUVs taking over the market segment sedans used to populate (automakers have to build cars as crash compatible to vehicles that weigh 1.5x-2x as much as previous averages and with bumpers several times higher which is also why visibility on modern cars sucks, but therefore small fun cars lose out)

Back in 2015, I got a chance to sit in a Camaro Z28 Silver one with Black Wheels and those huge Brembos. I was in love man. Wish I could have afforded one. One day I’ll get one.

Long form content…..Boys I see this as an absolute win. 👏🏾

And in 2006 I got myself a 300C!

I would add that the American horse power wars of the 2000s were a direct result of the Japanese horse power wars of the 1990s. Talking the big boys from Japan: Skyline, Supra, Evo, Rx7, WRX/STI. I think America and Europe were late to the party in the 1990s but finished strong in the 2000s. Even Mercedes and Audi show up with high horse power in the 2000s. Redlines and AMGs.

Love the videos keep em coming 🍗

No Intro? with an Amazing Outro? We luv you to gang

🍗 been here since 40k you the goat bro

🍗 Thanks for the info man! I thoroughly enjoyed that.

I never knew ppl thought the SSR WAS UGLY it was more of the entire setup of the pickup that didn’t make sense looks beautiful and the Plymouth

🍗 you talking that real race car shit bro keep doing it! 👌🏾

I have a 2006 Chrysler 300c srt8 is the suspension the same as a charger or 5.7??

Dude Got wet When he saw The Yellow Charger. Had bro talking nervous like when a 10 walks in a room😂

I just picked up a 2006 300c I absolutely fell in love

It’s sad because I was a dodge guy at first. I had a v6 challenger then a RT. Never got the scat. Ended up going 5.0 and never looked back.

keep it coming bruh! 🐔💸💸

Bro - loving the content my man 🍗

“Looks like it was Addicted to the ugly stick”😂🤣

I'm surprised you didn't bring up the mighty V10 Dodge viper. What is an incredibly scary ride

And you've got some mad scientist out there that's squeezed a HellCat under that little Prowler hood.

Bro said the prowler come outta left field 😂

Nastier than a pastor taking a gas station pill mid service is WILLLDD!! Lmao😂😂

The amount of education you get from cars from this man is astounding. I feel like I could listing to him talk about cars off the dome forever. I can barely listen to the kid flexing hellcat his car while picking up pizzas at my job 😂😂

🐔wing! Chevy didn't even try at a four-door 600 horsepower SS Impala

Nope. Barris and Jackson ruined car culture by giving people the idea that they can get $50,000+ for their $2,000 pieces of 💩.

🍗 Keep doing your thang man. 💯

My C6 Corvette had a LS2 (400HP). It was FAST, and handled great. It was very fun to drive and didn't need more HP. There is a good balance with HP and handling. More HP does not mean better handling, in most cases it makes it worse.

4:07 had me dying 😭

I think when Ford brought back the retro look for the mustang in 2005, other manufacturers followed suite. Unless im wrong and Chrysler and gm had prototypes already mentioned. Ford did a great job with the design for the 2005-2009 Ford mustang GT. Also, around the same time, Ford made the next gen Ford GT since the 60's. It very closely resembles the classic GT40.

Very informative video I agree that once hellcat came out everyone just likes to build a car to beat a stock hellcat is almost the standard now every comment section I see a hellcat always gets brought up lol

The Prowlers transaxle can't even handle the power of a hemi, and the v6 was one of the most powerful engines when it was new.

great video mane 🍗

🍗 Ty for the Videos, I love this channel

🍗🍗much love brotha

Mopar is car culture it’s had some of the Most iconic cars through out history

i want a dodge magnum to pair with my 2018 chrysler300 but the problem is finding a magnum in good condition with prolly less than say 80k miles is going to be hell to attempt. especially if i want one in a color other than black white or grey

I just saw a Aztek build that was actually dope

With the introduction of the new charger mopar definitely made the 2024 mustang more popular than the head chearleader with dirt on her knees

Nice vid brotha ....

I was here when the views hit the size of the base Chrysler motor.

Much Appreciated My G

What you think about the dodge intrepid i always like the look of it but never got one because people say sludge build up was a major problem
