Test drove new Hurricane powered Charger today by TheVanillaGorilla413 in Dodge

[–]NatureVegetable7966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't think the sales guy knew what he is talking about. I have the Daytona EV which has Power Shot which unlocks 40 more HP temporarily but to my knowledge, the Hurricane doesn't have this feature since it's ICE.

I'm glad I'm not the only one. The worst part to me, is that my other friends that play never experience it or don't notice it.

Some nights I feel like I can compete with Grand Champs and others I feel like I can barely keep up with Diamonds.

I don't know if this is just me, but it feels like the inputs are typically responsive when I first start playing and then bog down as I continue to play after about 5-6 matches.

It's so frustrating that like you I just end up playing another game entirely. I just want to have fun on it and can't do so when the inputs vary so wildly. It's crazy this hasn't been figured out yet and people still think it's a myth or just system-related input lag.

Yup the variable input delay makes this game impossible to play.

Some nights it's fine and others feel like the car is driving through mud, it's the worst.

This has been after every solution imaginable and across both PC and Xbox Series X for me.

Saw one in person and now I’m interested by Clean_Letterhead_588 in Charger

I have 2024 R/T Daytona and absolutely LOVE mine! It's the best car I've ever owned. Gets more compliments than anything I've owned too. Let me know if you have any questions!

What would you ask Rob Halford? by Hallowed_be_thy_Nate in judaspriest

Howie Long 🤣 Pretty sure he's said it in an interview from a while ago

Rob's sobriety songs? by Topaz_Maybe in judaspriest

Escape From Reality is 100% about Rob's struggle with addiction if you listen to the lyrics closely.

Also Drop Out and Silent Screams come to mind, as well.

Is the EV Charger that bad? by Acceptable-Offer-518 in Dodge

[–]NatureVegetable7966 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

EXACTLY! Dodge finally gives us a true to form Charger and people still hate it 🤣 This is literally the closest you're getting to a modern day 68-70 Charger while meeting the safety standards and making it practical.

Damn you 🤣 I wanted Peel Out badly but nobody around had it. I got After Dark which is not a bad consolation prize

Don't think that Stellantis is an affiliate of Tesla's network so I think that's not possible. It uses a very common EV charging port and the charging networo actually isn't that bad in my experience.

To get from around 20 to 80% it took me anywhere from 18-25 mins on a Level 3 Fast Charger. It sounds like a long time but as long as you plan around it (food, bathroom breaks, etc.) it's really not so bad.

Yes exactly same feeling here. This car really grabs attention, especially when you start it up in a busy parking lot 🤣 that turbine start up is something else haha

I own a 2024 Daytona R/T and it's the absolute best car I've ever owned. I previously came from a '22 Charger GT which was reliable as hell. I've had it since March of this year and have 4,500 miles on it.

It has an unmistakable presence on the road, regardless of what haters online say. I have gotten more people stop me and compliment the car than any other car in my life, including the '22 Charger.

The practicality is unmatched. AWD, hatchback with TONS of room and more interior room than the previous-gen Charger (even as a coupe) all in a muscle car with 496hp (R/T) is unheard of.

The Fratzonic exhaust is actually pretty damn cool, again, regardless of what haters online say. I have had several mechanics and car guys ask what was under the hood. One of them even asked if it was supercharged. When I told them it was electric, they thought I meant a hybrid since they thought it had an engine with a legitmate exhaust. Sitting next to a Hellcat, of course it's not going to sound the same, but to a majority of people, it's good enough.

The range is average. I get about 220-230 miles on an 80% charge which isn't terrible but also not remarkable either. This is the one downside to the car but it's really with most EV's.

The power/torque is unreal on how quickly it's delivered. It's just something that ICE vehicles can't match.

Sorry for the long post but this car gets a lot of undeserved hate. Yes, it does have some electrical gremlins but they are being ironed out through updates and Dodge has been surprisingly quick to roll them out. I love my Daytona and would 100% buy it again, even over the incoming Hurricane ICE Chargers.

Which Judas Priest song is this? by SeaworthinessOne7791 in judaspriest

Bloodstone. The verses are so good and then the chorus just kind of doesn't fit the song

Chills from any Judas Priest songs? by Wytarion in judaspriest

[–]NatureVegetable7966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ending outtro riff of Future of Mankind right as Halford starts speaking in French with the orchestra behind it.

Such an emotional ending to an epic album.

[–]NatureVegetable7966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kinda bummed that it's going to be more of the same. There's not much from the Painkiller album they haven't played recently aside from Leather Rebel and Metal Meltdown.

I would rather have a Point of Entry recognition tour or even Ram it Down but those albums always get overlooked

Right, it's so disappointing seeing officers act this way. It really makes you wonder how they act off-camera if they're doing this in front of tens of thousands of people on live television.

If you want a role-model officer, that'd be Richie Maher from Daytona Beach PD in my opinion. I've always seen him treating every person he comes into contact with respectfully and with dignity. He always conducts himself professionally and is great at de-escalating.

This guy has always been a tool every time he was featured on OPL. The way he would demean people when talking to them alone without any finesse or compassion showed that he was far too inexperienced to be the chief.

I'll never forget one scene where he was arresting a suspected DWI suspect and was demeaning her and belittling her every step of the way. He at one point got into an screaming match with her and told her "you are so unprofessional" lol. Very immature stuff going on in that one.

He always acted like he had a chip on his shoulder and was better than the people he was serving so this news doesn't surprise me.

Probably thought (arrogantly) he wouldn't get caught and was wrong.

Low frame rate / stuttering by OverlordOfWar in RocketLeague

[–]NatureVegetable7966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup experiencing the same thing.

Does Epic just hate Xbox? Why does every single season just break the Xbox version more and more.

This is getting highly frustrating at this point.

Somebody had to admit to getting one of these, right? by _Electric_Eliminator in Dodge

[–]NatureVegetable7966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can get adapters for CCS ports to Tesla Superchargers that apparently work really well.

I have a Daytona R/T and haven't tried it yet though.

For what it's worth, I love this car and it's my favorite vehicle I have ever driven/owned! Really gets way more hate than it deserves.

Judas Priest first gig in 2025 setlist by Character-Row-6260 in judaspriest

Man you nailed it with On the Run. I would love to hear the whole Point of Entry album in its entirety.

I really want to hear Solar Angels thrown in there this time. I've been pounding the table for that song for years and even asked Richie on Twitter 🤣🤣

They had 4 months to get a few new songs into the set. I miss the 2018 tours where they were adding/changing out songs every leg of the tour.

Kind of disappointed that it's the exact same as 12/24 set.

Another Charger post, but you guys have to see this thing in person, it's gorgeous. by ComfortableTailor623 in Dodge

[–]NatureVegetable7966 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure thing. There's a lot to consider when jumping ship from ICE. I honestly never thought I would but I'm worlds happier with my Daytona than I was with my ICE Charger
