In this video I share my hot take what I believe, as someone who has owned and lived with it for the past four months, the car to truly be.

I had an entire series of videos planned, showcasing the good side to owning this car, as follow up on and to balance out the negative news I covered in my last video; but unfortunately, my new Dodge Charger Daytona EV didn't get the message.
