In this video I answer all of your questions about what price I paid for my 2023 Dodge Challenger Swinger Special Edition Last Call hemi car. Follow me on Instagram, Facebook, and Tiktok at OCMotivator
What you paid is no one's business. You obviously ain't hurting for money considering your house and cars you got. Most that complain or say "You overpaid", got a bus pass/drive a beat up honda and live with they moms.
A bus pass 😂does that still exist? I’m assuming if it does possibly in a liberal State. And by the way it is someone’s business on what he pays a month, I want to know because I need to use it for future projects.
I just bought one (Swinger) in F8 Green. MSRP was $67k, Dodge sent me a coupon for $1k off, Traded my 2017 Hemi 300 with 21k miles for $27,500, and put $10k down. Payments are $530 mo.
Very rare to see this type of transparency anywhere on the internet. Couldn't agree more with all of the financial points you make in the video. Only challenge I have is, the dealership doesn't need protecting, they're in the business of taking calls, getting bad offers, etc. They didn't make you sign an NDA. Great content as always, sir!
I really respect your honest approach to all of your videos, especially the advice that you give. I love your new Challenger, and I’m looking forward to more videos about your Swinger.
What I really love about your channel is the transparency you have with all of your cars and loans. Pretty cool for all us to see what it costs to get loans or purchase these vehicles
OC, your transparency is crazy so not necessary because you have nothing to prove to anyone! Either way, congrats, bro! On the car, your success, your family, and all you've worked for!
I love your swinger and look forward to seeing more of it. I hate people that insist on slamming others down just to elevate themselves. I went through 4 Dodge dealers before finding one that would order/sell me a scat pack at msrp. It is ordered and I am impatiently waiting. Thx for the great videos!!
Straight to the point....too many people always judge what you have or pay....if your at the right time and place then everything will fall in place...not everyone is the same.....great video
Another transparent awesome video. Your advice not only saved me tons of $$$ but it made getting my car possible. I put in the work and got an excellent deal.
Awesome 👏🏽 video bro, Crazy how people care about other people’s finances when they should worry about themselves and work hard like you did to get in better positions. But awesome detail video love the content and speeches you give. All your hard work you have been working for to give your family a great life is highly well deserved. Keep pushing to the top never give up. God Bless
Brad thank you for ALL your video content. Being brutally honest speaks volumes of you. I have been shopping for a Challenger in different trim levels this year but just can't pull the trigger. On your office VLOGS I noticed you are a Veteran. Thank you for your service! I am a USAF Veteran too. Keep making your videos. Cheers - Pete
OCM… man I appreciate your videos and all the car buying advice that you share with us. Keep up the solid content and the negative people don’t reflect this solid channel. Thanks!
Thank you for your transparency and explanation of your decisions and purchasing process. Enjoy the Swinger if it’s short term or you keep it for awhile. It’s a great Dodge/Mopar product that should be enjoyed. Especially given that fact that they are last call vehicles and going away. Thank you again for your great content .
The sound of the Lambo makes it a supercar! I like that you call out the haters....you have brass balls Brad. The swinger is a total package and would be the exact set up that I would like; 6 speed too!
Just found your channel. Love this video man. I just bought my first Challenger! 2014 R/T it’s been a. Dream of mine for years and I finally got it! I’ve had some ppl question why and all that. But I love it man! Thanks for the great videos I’ll be watching!
Bro. When you respond... It only gives them reason to keep it going. Let them do what they do. Keep doing your positive work and CONTROL the things you can and DON'T worry about the things you can't. Let people be miserable in their life. You don't have to join in. Much love Bro.💯💪🏾👑
You are 100% right. The man in the arena gets to do battle while everyone else criticizes his technique. I’ve followed your channel for a little over 1 month and was able to do an outrageous deal on a wide body shakedown because I caught the right dealer at the end of the month willing to negotiate. Thank you for what you are doing. I’m launching a RU-vid channel soon and am learning a lot from you! Keep doing great things!
I own a 2010 challenger srt8, looking to get a newer model. really enjoy your vids, subscribed. liked. learned a whole lot about the purchasing process. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and car buying experience!
You can do everything right they’ll still judge you.. You got what you wanted and stayed solid on your word. No markup. Sticker car or not, that shaker wide body is FIRE AS HELL! Real recognizes Real 💪🏽
Do not let the negative comments get you down. It's your money you spend it like you want to. It's for the price you got it for that's still good. The six-speed manual that's great and most of the guys that think it ain't worth it they can't drive stick shift cars that's the reason. Keep doing what you do I like your Channel
Hi Brad! Sounds like you did good on your purchase! I totally get your logic on this purchase. Ignore those people who talk their sh#t. Bottom line, it's your money and you can spend it the way you want. Enjoy your Swinger!!! Be SAFE and stay HEALTHY!!! John from SoCal
Don’t let the haters get to you OC motivator. The haters probably mooch off folks, live in their moms basement, or work at McDonald’s. Keep being you Oc motivator you’re an inspiration to alot of people!
Another great one. My 2022 Widebody Scatpack Shaker is a Manual. Lady Driven only. The Hater’s really hate when they find out it’s a Lady Driven Manual and I paid cash for it. The hater’s will always hate. Screw them, I would love to see what they are driving Manuals are the best in my opinion. Thank you for your honesty. And another awesome video. ❤
You’ve owned a lot of people dreams cars already..shown proof of what you paid on all of them and the haters still doubt you, a lot of people hate to see others up..keep motivating 💪🏼
Although it's absolutely not necessary for you to explain your business to all those haters I got to say your transparency is much appreciated. Keep beimg the great person u are man. Hope to some day cross paths. I live in Perris,CA but spend my weekends in OC with my fam. God bless brotha 🙏
100% Truth man!!!! Smh...Too funny brother! All my life I've only EVER had one question for the guy with new toys and or more money!.........."How can I get it like you?" Congratulations brother and you don't owe anyone an explanation! But great transparency in this video man!!! 💪
We are here to really watch your enjoyment for your car you paid for , truthfully if this video wasn’t in your plans we have to respect that . Your business is yours 💯. Anyways nice challenger again Oc
Excellent vid OC! At the end of the day you make the choices that make YOU happy. As for the haters… well…. they will always be haters! Cheers and congrats again.
Man just live and enjoy to much negativity congrats🎉. I appreciate u being honest and just give advice. I hope to get one of these scatpacks or hellcats soon Godwilling.. Keep it going Man👍🏻
Honestly I been watching your videos for a while now I’ve bought a couple cars I’m only 26 so I been learning as I been going I have a Daytona that I maybe getting rid of for a scat. Always try to have my next deal the better one! But we ust went in Toyota and got my fiancé a 23 Rav 4 under sticker and I just made sure to go through everything and know what we are paying! 🙏🏼 love your new ride! 🇺🇸
I try not to respond to negative comments...but man is it hard! Awesome scoop can't wait for a Swinger to touchdown at my Dealer. We have a Shakedown now! (PS: Just saw an F8 Green Challenger Swinger sell for $75K on the Mecum Auto Auctions Today!)
God Bless you brother! Like I’ve told you in another video you did on the Demon. Some people just suck and love to run their mouths to good, honest hard working people. As I’ve said to you before, all that matters is what you believe, your wife believes and your daughter believes. Your videos are always transparent. True fans of the channel and true car guys and girls appreciate the way you are in your videos. Enjoy your new ride, manual is the way to go! My ZL1 1LE would not be half as much fun if it was an automatic! Stay safe.
Do not worry about the negative people that comment. They hate themself as well. Stay positive. It's what makes your channel a hit. Keep up the great videos and thanks for sharing
Thank you for sharing and providing a buying guide. And while no one should expect the same deal. What it does say is if you're willing to do your homework and establish a relationship with the business, they will be fair with you when the circumstance allow. Timing is everything. Not to mention dealer received free advertising and marketing and perhaps one of those callers they got will make a deal. .... I say it's was a win win.. Better to over pay for something you want and enjoy as it cost nobody but you, then to get a super deal for something that you weren't crazy about but thought it was a deal you couldn't pass up, only to end up hating it in the long run... Life is short.. Congrat's, I ain't made at you. You the man......
Yeah 9% is pretty high. I'm paying 5% with my cu and thought that was kinda high. When I got my daytona, my totalled r/t was still on my credit so my union rep called the loan officer WHILE she was working on my new loan application and advised her that the previous loan will be paid off. It changed my interest rate dramatically I assume. I owe that lady a box of chocolates!!!
You got a great price, I'm seeing base model 6spd manual Challenger Scatpacks go for $62k here in NC. I don't see how 2 doors and a manual are less desirable. Then again I enjoy driving and think it should be more involved than "press gas and go really fast." Speed isn't everything. Anything with a manual transmission I respect, it could be a 1980's Daihatsu.
They definitely are less desirable, Back in 2017 a Dodge dealer in queens ny had quite a few 2016 Hellcat leftovers ,3 of them were manuals ,all 3 cars msrps were anywhere from $67k to $69k for these 3 particular cars ,A friend of mine bought One of them for $50k plus taxes/tags fees etc so all in he was in the ballpark of $55-$56k for his Hellcat,and the reason they were so aggressive was because they were manuals ,I kick myself in the ass when i think of some of the cars i couldve bought but at that time it was so normal it didnt phase me,I Couldve had a 2017 charger Hellcat that day for $61k The msrp was $72k and it was a nothing special of a deal 😂,Oh how i miss those times and cant wait for november 2024 to come ,This country needs big changes and november we will either get it back or if not what we see now is only the beginning...Red for Freedom people ,Blue for theis sewer we are currently in....
I think your channel is great bro ! Your putting out some good useful content I enjoy your clips . Most all dealers (stealers) are trying to get 10 over on 2023 hellcats redeye’s widebody’s 10 over MSRP seems the norm for first price quote . I talked with your guy Max great guy called him about the very challenger you spoke of I saw it in the back ground of one of your video’s called him ASAP. We was close to a deal but the challenger just wasn’t equipped how I really wanted. So I wasn’t willing to pay the amount management wanted over MSRP . If it was options better it didn’t have 309 gears, it didn’t have the Laguna leather , or the exterior , flat, black hood, roof, and trunk lid. I probably would’ve paid what they was asking.I certainly would negotiated more rather than walking away but Max was a nice guy . I think because the car isn’t option more , for me I was willing to pay MSRP or 5 over at most .
Haters are disturbed people. They're jealous. You did well. Who cares what they think. I'm happy for you and it's a nice car. That's all that matters. ❤
Hey, OCM….don’t let yourself be bothered by people who are frustrated by lack of accomplishments and envy. A lot of them are not happy with themselves and try to take out their frustration on others, to feel better. What they don’t realize is that their misery is not related to your success in any way. I find that feeling happy for other people’s success adds to your own happiness. 😎⚓️
Hello First of all, a big thank you for your honesty in your videos. You can buy whatever you want and what you spend on it doesn't matter. That's my personal opinion. I think your videos are great and I like to watch them all, no matter if challenger or Lamborghini or supra All cool. As a German, I'm glad that I can get information about the vehicles in this way and can also assess the market in Germany well. Especially when it comes to chargers and challengers. Don't listen to the stupid talkers and the naysayers out there it unfortunately everywhere in the world. Best regards to you and keep it up. Best regards, Oliver
Congrats on the Swinger Brad! Happy for you and the channel. I remember you saying in an older video that if/when you decided to pull the trigger on a sticker car, it would be in Sublime Green. I have a 16 yr old taking his driver's license road test next Tue in my 2022 Charger GT (with Pedal Commander that will be turned off 😁) If he passes, he'll get to drive it to school the next day by himself for the first time. I'm nervous for him and my baby! My wife has a 2021 Challenger GT and doesn't like to let our son drive it because of the huge blind spots. Curious on your feedback about the blind spots. Ever had any close calls in the Challengers you've owned? Still lovin the channel! Keep it up.
Dude you are absolutely awesome! I am so happy that you're doing this. Wow, that's great! First time I've seen some of your videos and I think that all your videos are awesome. Number one number two. This is like peek of the mountain right now. What you doing with this telling the truth I I totally believe you. It's not you know what it's none of their effing business. The freaking naysayers naysayers should just piss off. Anyways, I love your channel. I am subscribing to it. You're awesome! Thank you so much!
Nice vid Most of the hatters are jealous or just don't know what they are talking about .What you say makes sense. Nice car and keep up the good vids 👍
Beautiful car, good luck with it ! I do pretty much the same thing with my cars but I don’t even put any money down, I just prefer to keep my money in my pocket.
You're absolutely right back in 1988 I bought a Chrysler Conquest TSI we went up as a family to pick it up I was so excited as always an argument about the driving up there took headline and my sister started blaming the fact that I was getting the car I said don't say it don't say it she said I don't know why you have to get that stupid thing anyway the car is gone but 35 years later that's all I remember when she got her car I could have said something the paint job was bad but instead I said congratulations it's so nice and that's the difference
Actually the more valid reason why most people don't want the manual Challengers is because they're slower. The 8 speed ZF automatic can shift faster and so can t g e paddle shifters in the automatic. And most tend to get into an occasional "challenge" at a stoplights 🚦 no pun intended 😊
I think it's a little bit of both. People who don't know how to drive manuals (like me) and the fact that you just can't outshift an automatic nowadays. The A8 is damn quick. Same goes for the A10 in the Camaro and Mustang. It's cool if you prefer manual, I understand completely if you do. But if you want to experience the full potential of a modern vehicle, you can't go wrong with auto in my opinion.
Hey love your channel Congratulations on your lime green challenger. I also got my 2022 dodge charger widebody scatpack with the orange package which was the same MSRP as yours. I was able to buy mine at Rydell Dodge in San Fernando Ca. A different dealer wanted $10,000 over MSRP for the same vehicle. So it’s possible to get it for MSRP. 👍🏼
I see in alot of comment sections that any time people see a dark skinned person in a mopar people say oh they paying on it for 30 years or 96 months but this video shows you different...people need to stop all the hate
Ya. I’d rather pay $1000 month for 96 months on a car that’s holding its value well that I can easily afford, then do a 48 mo loan at $1700 month and risk losing it if money got tight. I don’t get how people think strapping yourself with a $1700 payment is smart. I met a kid who was 26 years old paying $1800 month on his Hellcat for 60 months and was stressed out. Nothing wrong with going longer. Just pay extra on the note every month when you can and you’ll still pay it off sooner.
I’m coming back in a couple months to explain how u helped me get my scat at a great deal below MSRP anyhow congratulations screw the Richards😂😂😂 this is definitely 1 of my favorite car channels
Brad, this video made me feel good about my monthly payments for the '23 Jeep Compass, after the CAD$20K negative trade-in value on the 2022 Challenger Hellcat ;)
