Uh oh... I went to the Darkside
My new job required me to get a vehicle with 4wd. So I started looking for a cheap truck. Well, you know how that went. I kept up selling myself until I was looking at raptors. But honestly, trucks do nothing for me. So I just started looking at all kinds of random 4wd Vehicles. And I came across this...
2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT. I had been intending to pick up a new Z06 within a year so I thought, screw it! Traded my 2012 grand sport in on it. This thing is a riot. It moves way faster than something this heavy should. All kinds of bells and whistles. And it launches ridiculously hard.
But have no fear. I plan to be back in the corvette ranks within a year or two

No mustang for sure! Lol. It does have 6.4l hemi with 470 hp, 8 speed zf tranny, adaptive cruise, adaptive braking, all the lane and signal safety crap. Suede, leather and carbon interior. 19 speaker Harmon stereo with 800+ Watts. Brembo brakes. Etc
Unfortunately I am no longer in AR. I moved to Warrensburg MO and have not updated info yet.

Great looking ride. I was a MOPAR guy for years. The last two I had literally fell apart. Their quality (or lack of) is as bad or worse than any other vehicle make I have owned. But, they have some of the best looking vehicles on the road. I hope your SRT hangs together because it will be a blast to drive. Good luck.

2008 Dakota and a 2010 Dakota. Interior was cheap plastic as were most Mopars but they have upgraded since. Suspension was a major problem on both. The new Jeeps are really nice looking. Good luck.
