  • Welcome back guys! Here’s a fun review I made of the first SRT8 Jeep Grand Cherokee! I’ve also driven the 6.4 and Trackhawk, and it’s a fun reminder to see where it all started!

    You get to have all the fun 😎👍 I had a 2007 Chevy Trailblazer SS with a LS2 Corvette engine. I was going to supercharge it but things fell apart and I had to sell it. It was 42k MSRP too, but I got a great deal because a friend of mine owned a Chevy dealership. One of the best vehicles I ever owned. AWD, leather interior, navigation (big deal back then). This Jeep review brought back a lot of memories. 😃👍

      Yeah, this one was definitely a lot of fun! Oh wow, that’s really cool! I’ve never driven a TBSS but have always thought those and the similar year Silverado SS were pretty neat! I’m glad it brought back some memories. 😀

    This 6.1 Hemi has to be underrated. A stock 2018 SRT Jeep runs about the same, but has 70 (reported) HP more. The 18' also has a Slick 8 speed...

      Yeah, for sure! These 6.1 are stout! I just posted a 6.4 Jeep wrangler, very sketchy, but very fun lol. 😂

    Is 126k miles a lot to these SRTs? I’m looking at an 07 for $15,500

    • @AutomotiveAnonymous208
      @AutomotiveAnonymous208  2 місяці тому +2

      I’m not sure, I would check out the forums and ask that question on what to look out for. I would imagine the engine is likely good if maintained. But I don’t know how the transmissions and all accessories off the engine hold up. Best of luck! 🙂

      Nice! What’s done to it? For the elevation where I tested this one I was surprised at how well it ran. Usually big V8 cars are at least a second slower than magazine rated, but the AWD launch definitely helps.

    How is it able to tow 3,500lbs without even having a tow hitch.

    • @AutomotiveAnonymous208
      @AutomotiveAnonymous208  Місяць тому

      Lol, good question. You’d think for the price of these they would come with a hitch from the factory.
