Cool. I see you had the the build sequence from Dodge via e mail which is cool. That is what I had also. I ordered the 2 door as I have the 4 door 2016 Scat Pack 392 . Later RJD

Make sure it is all corrected before shipping so your name is spelled correctly on your personalized window sticker.

I almost missed my name on the sheet. I carefully folded it up to save. I took a photo, but it needs to be scanned to see better. I kept trying to log into the tracker with the order number I got in the Dodge email but could not log in. I figured out I got the same response no matter what name I put in, called the dealer and I found out they spelled my name wrong told them to fix it, Once I typed in my name with the one letter missing I got in, took about 2 weeks before the wrong name didn't work

I had the glass roof on the EV created extra heat in the car and being an EV ate up EV mileage. I chose not to have it on the gad model. Later RJD

Huh? First I heard that one.

Any time you run heat or air its going to cut into your mileage. You should know that being where you live. My PHEV does the same. Even tho roof is tinted a lot of heat is generated. Later RJD

I got the glass roof and it’s fine. The tint on it is extremely dark and I forget it’s even glass . It’s not like a sun roof or a moon roof, those have dark tint but not like this, and there is no cover for it.

I was initially worried I’d just be baking in the car or it’d be unbearable after sitting outside off for a bit whenever it’s over 70 and sunny but that’s not been my experience.

If I had built and not bought off the lot, I’d probably have traded it for the 18 speaker sound system, though.

Not to mention the weight at the strip..........

You may not get as hot where you are but here in Ga it can get pretty hot hi 90s and it sure made my car a lot hotter and makes the air work harder to help eat up battery. Later RJD

Here's test for everyone to do. Get a laser temp gun and check the glass temp in the bright sun. You'll see that the laminated windshield is the culprit for inside heat and not the safety glass that crumbles.

We have 100's up in my climate...............AND humidity.

 

[aceinspp59]

Well we have it also. Your still going to get the heat through roof. Later RJD

There is a clear heat reflecting film that you can have installed on the windshield and glass roof. Obviously it has no tint in it so it wont break any laws and wont mess with the look of the roof or the ability to see out of the windshield at night
