Am I Crazy? Trade my car collection for the Hellcat/ZL1/GT4?

Currently maintain 9 vehicles, plus my parents' and a few friends. No complaints here as wrenching on cars is very relaxing to me.

Nothing against the truck, but did anyone know how to get their vehicle off the line? Only one that came close to not being tree'd was the older black Firebird at the end of the vid.

It looks like the F150 surprised them with the holeshot and then they got nervous with the throttle and lost traction playing catch up.

Several of them were really gaining there at the end, but on the street it would have all been over by then.

I would guess that most of the buyers of a Hellcat, ZL-1, Z06, etc. can't come close to the magazine times for those cars.

I believe that F150 ran a low 12.x at around 110, so several of the cars there should have been faster.

Driver mod would have helped them immensely.

And Murder, I would definitely get rid of all of them for 1 of the above.

Maintaining and storing that many cars, plus some bikes, would be too much of a time vampire.

I've been there/done that and time is the one thing we all get an allotment of that we can fully choose how to spend.

I got sick of spending my time on Stuff.

There's lots more memorable things to do than work on one of your cars seemingly every weekend.

My choice would be the ZL1 hands down. I love my SS, it's my daily driver and does everything I need it to, so adding a supercharger on the top along with some more aggressive looks and handling would make it a near perfect experience, at least for me. My suggestion would be to decide FIRST if you are willing to give up your collection for ANY of those three. If not, okie dokie. If so, get rid of them first and put your money up until you've looked at/driven/drooled over/researched all three of your choices. You won't truly know what you should decide until you've experienced all three first-hand.

The Challenger has never tasted venison.

Daily drivers are all on State Farm policies (had to write me two separate policies as we maxed out the first) and the play cars are insured with Hagerty.
