Nice Tony! You hid the boost gauge though.

Same with the instrument cluster. Upgraded Roush package.

LOL
Thank you sir. After I drove it, I fell in love again. If it sells, it sells. I'm not really going out of my way trying to sell it. If a great offer comes along, well,.......

Was in getting my 04 Jeep GC daily driver serviced yesterday and saw this on the lot. Thought you might like this... They only want 72.5k for it, it's a 14, they also had a black 15 on the show room floor for around 70k. Just a long ways from where it is to where you are.


That sure seems like a lot when you can get a loaded Summit for under $50k. But it's only money, right!

That blows my mind. I recently looked at a new loaded SRT Jeep and it was almost $80K Don't get me wrong, I love them and would like to have one, but I just cant see spending 80K for a new vehicle like that, especially one that gets 9 mpgs in real world driving.

Yeah, that's freakin' insane.

My GF and I were driving yesterday when I see a flat-bed tow truck driving by, Jeep on the flatbed, Chrysler minivan in tow behind it.
"There goes Chrysler quality" I said ... sad but true. They still suck.
Not a vehicle I'd buy (again),..... they're like Audi's ... lease-only, never buy

Give me a Summit with the SRT8 engine, seats and brakes. Then I'd be a happy camper!

Thanks for posting.
That is a beauty. I love the white. I would get white. "If" I get one. Don't know if I can afford it yet. There are some factors that decide if I get one.
There is a used one at the Lexus dealership down the street from me. Asking 52k, with 25k miles. Looks bad ***! I want new though, especially in a performance vehicle. You never know what you are buying into.

Yeah,....it is A LOT of money for sure. But,...it's also a lot of fun too. lol
I'm not worried about the gas mileage as work is only 16 miles a day both ways.

I thought about an Audi too, but I'm a little worried about that. I like the Audi S3. But my buddy that does all my work said, stay away from Audi. lol
My truck is almost 10 years old and running like a champ. Only 71,600 miles on her. I just put 1,500 bucks into it. All maintenance stuff. Complete tune-up, except K&N filter, flush all transaxles and swap out all filters using all OEM fluids and filters. Mobil one synthetic oil change and rotate tires, put in new OEM sensor for the 4X4 sensor and replace 3 bulbs in the dash, and new pads on front brakes. Backs were fine. Truck gets up and goes good. I just had to spin the tires halfway thru the intersection the other day. It's funny how cars stay away from you after that.

I agree man. I'd take it in a heartbeat.

Yep. All of what you said is true and I agree whole heartedly. I stated the same sentiments earlier in this thread.

Srt8 = great fun machine. But NOT at 70k - 80k, esp for a Chrysler product. 40k maybe.

I agree 100% about spending 70/80k. I cannot afford that with my current Roush payment.
I would not and will not spend 80k on this vehicle, not even 70k. I'm looking to get a great deal/trade in number. If not,...no harm, no foul. Onto the next on my "list".

Whenever somebody mentions "new Grand Cherokee", I remind myself of this awesome little video ... the test isn't done in the U.S., but anyway, it's a cool little tidbit of media, I especially like the part when it 2-wheels into turns and pops the tire off the bead

Don't get me wrong, I love them. If I had unlimited space and money I'd have one. I like the new GC's across the board. I've even considered one with the diesel for a DD to replace one of my Explorers.

Wow that's eye opening. While we don't have moose to swerve around here, we sure do have plenty of deer... Downright scary!

I'm going to move this topic to the general automotive section.
Don't want to clog up this thread with talk and take away from the goregous green machine.
Here's the linky,...........

Quick photo.

Thank you sir!!
Yes Burton, that is why I took it out. It was really nice out for late October and it was all I could think about at work. Pretty soon it's battery tender time. Makes me ill just thinking about it.
How is your beast treating ya? Still gorgeous I bet.
