The Key That Will Get You in Trouble

The Key That Will Get You in Trouble
The 2015 Dodge Challenger and Charger Hellcat have been on the market for a year now and thousands of units have been sold. There’s a big reason these bad boys are ‘driving’ off the shelves, with 707 Hp and 650 lb-ft just under $60,000. But if you have ever come across an SRT Hellcat owner, you may have noticed that they either use a black key or red key to start up their car. There’s a reason. This two-key system generates a 207 horsepower difference; the black key which limits the power to 500 horsepower and the red key which unlocks the full 707 horsepower potential.
According to Drive SRT, “When the red key is in use, the full potential of the 707 horsepower SRT Hellcat engine is in full effect. To dispel some misconceptions, the only performance restriction that results from use of the Black key is limiting the horsepower output to 500.”
Think about it, that’s 707 horsepower in a family Sedan basically. What is a family going to do with all that? But it’s still an easy drive. You can take it down a notch if you’re dropping the kids off in the morning. Or if a loved one is taking it to the store and you know they can’t handle all those horses.
Oh yeah, there’s even a valet mode for those you don’t trust with your vehicle (someone you don’t know or the valet dude). The valet mode will limit the power to 300 horsepower and RPM’s to below 4000 RPM. Dodge is looking out for ya!

The Pain of Searching for New Car Car shopping can really be a pain in the rear. It is something that you are looking forward to at first as it is an exciting venture. But as you go from car dealership to car dealership, the whole enterprise becomes old very quickly.

A Helpful App

                                                              apple.com  A Helpful App We all want to be safe on the road, as well as others. But some of us can't help being on our phone or becoming distracted with other things while driving. Thankfully there are a few hand-free options out there, and Apple's CarPlay is one of them. Standard infotainments don't offer what CarPlay does. With CarPlay, you are applying iPhone software expertise to your driving experience, with Siri voice commands. Sending messages, playing music, asking for directions, streaming radio, or calling people hasn't been easier. All without touching your phone. It relies on Siri voice commands so you can keep your eyes on the road and hands on the wheel. Keep in mind, CarPlay is an app, it doesn't replace your standard entertainment system. Your c...

How Much Do You Drive on a Daily Basis?

How Much Do You Drive on a Daily Basis? We live in a society where people typically drive their vehicles for a short period and do not actually pay them off before jumping into a new one. There can be many reasons for this. This means that the total amount that they owed on the previous vehicle is tacked onto the new one so. Therefore, many people are indebted to their vehicles more than they are with their actual home loans. For these types of people, leasing a vehicle sounds like a good option because you get a new one every two years. The only issue with this is that you are only allowed a certain number of miles per year. So, for those of us who travel long distances every day back and forth to work, school or traveling, leasing is not the best option. We exceed the number of allotted miles in only a few months. The Alternative to Leasing A Vehicle So, what does someone do that travels great distances every day to be able to lease or to fit within the qualifications of a l...
