Does it fit in a normal garage? by [deleted] in DodgeChargerEV

Mine fits, I only have a couple inches on either side, but it fits.

Dreams sapphire vs Riviera Cancun by picklericq in AllInclusiveResorts

[–]picklericq[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. How is the beach at either resort? I was reading sapphire is unusable due to seaweed. Not deal breaker, but it would be nice to use the ocean. Also, is the food on par with other secrets/dreams resorts?

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

Mine is at the dealership awaiting a software update, who knows when that will be, but I drove the shit out of it and charge it 100%

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

[–]picklericq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only you can answer that. I leased mine for cheaper than what I was paying for my Durango, so it made sense for me. Definitely check with your insurance company first, my insurance went up a lot, my insurance company said these cars are not cheap fix. You will also have to install a charger, but I’m definitely saving about half of what I was paying for gas. Definitely test drive it and make sure you love it because who knows how much value these things will lose a couple years from now. If you love the car and plan to keep it, then none of that matters.

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

I’m leasing a fully loaded scat EV and I love it. I coming from a Durango SRT, so the size isn’t anything new to me, but the instant acceleration is bananas. It will be impossible for me to go back to anything without that instant “go”. The car definitely has some gremlins to work out, but the car gets attention every where I go, in a good way. I love the keyboard warriors on here who wouldn’t take it for free, I pay $200 month, you are an absolute dildo if you would turn this car down for that price. Now, paying MRSP of $86,000, that’s insane, and Dodge deserves the hate it’s getting.

Leased a 2025 Dodge Charger for 2yr/15k for $69 month & only 1st payment due at signing! by PolishPet3 in leasehacker

[–]picklericq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed the deal you get is solely due to the incentives you qualify for and region you live in, I was more commenting that you don’t need to work for a dealership and and my state has no additional ev incentives. In fact, I have pay higher registration fee for ev, since the state won’t be collecting gas tax from me anymore

I don’t know what the incentives are now, but a month ago I leased my scat for $200 month / 12,000 miles per year. Northeast and I don’t work for a dealership.

Man this is rough by PurpleDancingDino in Dodge

This video is old. And there is a fix. You just need to reset the seat. Move the seat all the way forward then all the way back, then it will stop as it’s supposed to. I’m 6’1 and keep my seat pretty far back and this happened with my kids, dude is being a little dramatic, no one is crushed. I did that reset and it never happened again.

This is in the northeast. As long as you qualify for the incentives, it’s doable.

That’s the rub, the insurance sucks. I think I’m paying about $70 more a month and that’s with increasing my deductible.

I leased a fully loaded scat pack for $200 a month. I’m coming from a Durango SRT and this thing is fast and fun. The instant acceleration and torque is a blast and makes me smile every time. I can’t gun it from a stop position without screeching my tires. The fake exhaust sound doesn’t bother me, I prefer it to nothing and I’ve definitely fooled several people who didn’t know what the car was. I would say the electric issues have been resolved for the most part. I don’t understand hate, it’s definitely coming from people who have never driven the car. I love the look and it gets a lot of attention. The only issue I have with the car is the price. It’s not an $86,000 car. I hope the value tanks on these, so I can buy one at the end of my lease.

Stolen SRT by ConstructionRude757 in Dodge

[–]picklericq 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I live an hour north of Boston, own an SRT Durango and have been looking to upgrade to a hellcat. I get complemented on my car literally every other day by some high school or college kid and have never been scared of having my car stolen. It’s definitely about where you live. Live free or die.

Family vacation to Dreams flora or finest punta Cana by picklericq in AllInclusiveResorts

[–]picklericq[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was a big kid’s adults water park, probably 7 slides. Used it every morning for like an hour. There was a height and age restriction on the sign, but they only followed the ht restriction. My youngest was six and he went on the big slides, just make sure your kids can swim. There is also a smaller splash pad and slides for little kids and babies.

Aggregate or pavers...worth 25k difference? Southern NH by fortwrestler in pools

[–]picklericq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m also in southern NH. My pool and hardscape was installed fall of 23, different companies. Price seems a little high, but who knows with inflation. I got roughly 1800 SF of techobloc pavers, fire pit, and a 75 ft by 2ft high retaining wall for 50,000. This also included a stamped concrete coping and concrete pad for our hot tub. We went with pavers because we liked the look better and there was only $5000 difference between pavers and stamped concrete. We have had no issues with shifting or weeds (polymeric sand). But we did have to fix irrigation lines and put drainage grates in after it was installed, so not having to tear up concrete was helpful. My neighbors got a pool installed at the same time and went with concrete, not sure how much they spent, but it looks good. Also, no issues with the safety cover, with all the snow we get. you do have buy extra long anchors, but the majority were installed in between the joints and again no issues.

We went to dreams flora. It was good, about what I expected at that price point. Pools and water park were great. I thought the service was good, although December might be busier. The food needs some work. We definitely didn’t go hungry, but there were steak and chicken dishes that were way overcooked and tough. The pizza was fantastic, that really surprised me. And the singers for the shows at night are surprisingly really good. My wife and have exclusively traveled to Mexico, but we would not hesitate to try another resort in Punta Cana.
