You hear this pathetic attempt to dismiss the Hellcat from your standard everyday fanboy of whichever auto brand. The Hellcat has 707 horsepower. Yeah, BUT the Hellcat is a fat pig that can't get out of its own way. These guys are the worst. They remind me of political hacks who defend their particular political ideology or party to the point of zealotry regardless of the reality. Those are the people you stay away from when the conversation veers anywhere out of the everyday realm of small talk. I feel confident in saying no serious car lover could dislike the Hellcat. You cannot be a car guy and hate the Hellcat or the idea behind it. It is so brutally and unapologetically American and that is what makes it so special. Does anyone need 700+ horsepower in what can be considered a practical daily driver? Hell NO! But we want it! It doesn't need explanation. The Hellcat is a microcosm of America. It stands for ingenuity, strength and a bit of tasteful excess.
The Hellcat is fu*#ing awesome! And it is simply un-American to deny it!
