But it's 273", 318", 361" Chrysler, don't confuse them with the
earlier Jeep American Motors Corporation's 304", 360", 390", 401" type

Re: Jeep VS others
I have had a couple of street runs against a new BMW M3, a friend has
one. All The Jeep was able to do vs a M3 is jump in front until about
30mph and then the M3 starts to pass and then just pull away. It is in
a different league. The M5 is very similar, if not faster.
As far as an Escalade. I'm putting out more torque than the Caddy and
weigh about 2000 lbs less. So Jeep beats the Escalade in any flavor.

one. All The Jeep was able to do vs a M3 is jump in front until about
30mph and then the M3 starts to pass and then just pull away. It is in
a different league. The M5 is very similar, if not faster.
As far as an Escalade. I'm putting out more torque than the Caddy and
weigh about 2000 lbs less. So Jeep beats the Escalade in any flavor.
