Jeep SRT8

[wesalbert]

Just learned that they do make a hitch for it. Until now this was one reason I was still keeping the truck. Now that I know about the hitch, this opens some options.
I know Santeen will push me to get the SRT8. I know a few members here have Jeeps in the household.
What are your opinions on the Jeeps? If I get a Jeep, the truck will have to go. Not sure if I should put it back to stock and sell the rims, hood, stereo, engine goodies, exhaust, bedrug and such..... or try to sell it as is. :dontknow:
Got my mind going now.....

sorry , after 1.849 posts you're NOT allowed to sell your SRT... :aetsch:

I'll take the bedrug

I'll take the bedrug

Not parting it out yet.... I know within minutes of me saying I am, Santeen will be knocking on my door.

You will miss the truck but I like the Jeep too.....came a hair of having a jeep instead of the truck.......I may get one for a DD before this year ends..

 

[wesalbert]

I have to admit, EVERY time I drive the truck I get compliments on it. Not sure if I will miss it or not.

The Jeep looks great but wont stand out like the truck....you probably wont be talking to strangers at the gas pump anymore..

I have a hitch on my wife's Jeep, and retained the stock exhaust.

Pics? Everything I saw said the hitch was a couple hundred, but then had to do a mopar exhaust that is like $700.

Thats funny. I had a 15 minute coversation a couple days ago when I filled it up.

It's dark already here, so I will get pictures in the morning.

What is the tow rating? Isn't it like 3000lbs?

Close. It's 3500 pounds.

i could have told you a long time ago that the srt gjc's could have a hitch installed...hell...if this redneck works out of his, you don't think i know about it already...i haven't got one for the wife because she has a lead foot...not because it can't "tow"

 

[guyrobert]

make sure you test drive the Jeep, I'm guessing you'll love it but if you are over 6'2 and 220lbs it will be a tight fit.
Buy an 08 or later and FYI the gas mileage is worse than the 10
But stoplight to stoplight in any weather you will be king!

 

[kyle's srt10]

I'll take your Sct and exhaust.....

 

[blackviper]

Thanks. That's what I thought. I gave it consideration before buying another 10 but I need to tow 9000lbs.

 

[GADodgetech]

08 and newer only way to go :rock:

Knock...Knock.... Oh Wesssy Pooo. I got dibs on atleast the wheels, B@B exhaust and Hood. And yes, I'm pushing you on this one, this will actually be Joy's next ride. I'm giving this thread a daily bump.
