Grand Cherokee SRT8
Saw this at the auto show, thing looks sweet, 415hp with a 0-60 under 5 seconds and it sits on 20's



Truck looks hot, just makes me wonder if Toyota would ever do this, a special edition TRD version with the SC would be cool

Chrysler's really pumping out the hp numbers in the past years....will be interesting to see if it does anything for long-term sales.

As much as I hate to admit it- it's all about image. This thing is gonna sell. Jeep will sell every one they make if the price is not outrageous. Sure, I'd love to see a hotrod version of the 4Runner, but I personally wouldn't buy it. People look to Toyota for reliability and value--performance is secondary (not that it's missing entirely).

So true, the Jeep dealer in my neck of the woods has loaded Grand Cherokees for 50k and they sell those

I read tons of stuck tha said the Jeep Grand Cherokee, the current 1 was suppost to be a mechanical twin to the new MB ML except for the engines:arrow: I guess that never happened, Thai is it true or false I have not read that other thread

Edge, i don't think that ML and JGC share the same platform. MB is being cautious about this. The new ML has independent suspension all around, unlike JGC. ML does not get QuadraDrive system, nor do they have the same transfer case. They are pretty different from each other.
