Well... pulled the trigger on a 2012 Jeep Cherokee SRT8!
 

Not to be confused with the "Well... pulled the trigger on a 2011 Jeep!"

I have been enjoying this machine, a LOT! My unlimited is nice and I really liked it when I got it but this is a whole other level. Ive owned an SRT Charger in the past and really enjoyed that but set it free earlier this year. The Cherokee SRT8 is awesome. The audio, seats, features and raw power is just, well, awesome.

The Unlimited is still on regular rotation and the SRT8 WILL be driven in winter. If I don't give a shout out to the wife on this one I may be beheaded. LOL. She was happy with adding another Unlimited....... :p

And now, some pictures. Any questions, let me know and I will see if I can answer them or if you want pictures from a different angle or something.

I am drooling...

i've driven the previous SRT8 Grand... and needless to say i was wow'd... and ofcourse the new is even stronger... i would love to take the new one for a spin though... might have to check it out if our dealer gets one.

Yea, i love the truck. I had a SRT8 Charger before but this pushes my love for srt8's even farther. The truck is amazing and super quick. It gets tons of looks which my bro in law loves when hes out and about with it. Its new and fairly unique so I guess people like to check it out.

You certainly cant offroad it and I am not sure I would ever try. I am curious how it will be in snow with the current rubber on it, they are more geared towards summer driving.

Cargo space is great compared to the Unlimited. I feel way to cramped in the unlimited compared to the Cherokee. The srt8 can tow but I dont expect to tow any time soon.

I was going to say setup a meet and we can all get together and you can check it out, but, you are pretty far away. lol

yeah im sure that thing breaks necks anywhere you go lol...

those tires would be a scary thing in my neck of the woods, i've got brand new directional hancook ipike tires that are studded on the Jetta, and i was sliding around more than i was comfortable with lol...

My brothers mustang is another story lol, they spin when you spit on the ground, nevermind when their frozen... then again, all wheel drive in the SRT8... but then again you have another 100hp in your beast lol

that thing doesn't have the quadralift in it, i wouldn't be taking it offroad either lol you have the unlimited for that lol

Well, my srt8 has the Pirelli PZeros on them
The jeep is almost useless with what little snow we have. Went out, turned around and came home. Almost slid through a stop sign, barely could make it up Dundas lol
