So, I guess I can be a moderator now huh?
Traded the 2001 Ford Exploder in for this:
2007 Grand Cherokee SRT8
K&N cold air
BB Tri Flow cat back
Rear entertainment package
Navi
Rear back up camera
Parking guideance
It is VERY nice.
Got it from a Ford dealer in PA - got 17.3 mpg on the 130 mile drive home.
It's the new winter beater

17.3 mpg!
Does the 6.1 get better gas milage than the 5.7??
I don't think my '08 GC gets close to that

I'll get more pic's today.
Actually, I got 18 mpg on the highway last night - just cruising at about 68-70 mph - tires inflated to about 35 psi.
It is rated at I think 16 on the highway. I see around mid 15's around town.
This thing is a blast to drive - sooooooo smooth. Quiet at cruise speed but loud when I lay into it.
Haven't raced it yet

It's a Jeep thing. Even *they* don't understand. How do you put 'jeep' emblems on a mall-crawling pavement queen?
No knock on the new acquisition, though - That's a sharp SUV.

LOL. I was going to make the same post with different wording.
1.) Awesome new ride, I love the SRT-8 Jeeps. I got my ass kicked by one once.
2.) I will never "understand" how a salty war machine turned into a soccer ball hauling, yankee candle scented, Lifetime network wagon.
