I am the original owner of this Jeep SRT8 Grand Cherokee. I typically buy new model vehicles before they are out and sell after two years and look again for the latest and greatest. The same is true with this SRT8. I ordered the car from the dealer days after it was released. It was produced with my name on the production order I had professionals tint the windows, painted most of the chrome black, custom paint the hood and the inserts, and install the Borla exhaust and hardwired radar detector. I could not stand all of the chrome from the factory and wanted the truck to look "a touch" unique. Specifically, the chrome faccia on the back and on the edges of the grill were an eye sore so they were painted black. They since removed this on the newest SRT8 models, so the SRT team looks as if they agree. Additionally, the hood having a unique shape was custom painted by an artist to show its form, but in a subtle way. The custom hood can hardly be seen from 15 feet away, but, when close up, or in the right light (day or night), its beauty.

As for the performance, if you are interested in this truck, you already know that its approx 470 hp, 6.4L V8 naturally aspirated. For more performance details, have a look at the jeep website. Its still the same engine. Brembo Brakes. The Borla exhaust was installed to let the natural notes come out. The Borla installed was type S, the less aggressive version. Quiet when you want it and loud when you want it. No drone. The transmission is key to this car in my opinion. The new SRT8 has 8 gears. This has 5. In my opinion, the exhaust sound better using 5 gears, and honestly the shifts are more like a manual trans.

I have 2 extra rims (6 in total) in so-so condition. I am willing to get them repainted at my cost with a mutually beneficial sale. One of those tires could be used as a full size spare, although I opted not to keep the extra weight in the truck. All 4 tires are brand new worth $2000. New brake pads and rotors (genuine Brembo) were installed 2 months ago. FYI 34,533 miles as of today. This is my daily ride.

Oil has been changed every 3,000 with Mobil1 full synthetic 0W40. Twice I put Castrol full synthetic because Mobil 1 0W40 wasn't available. I order the oil from people I trust and only will allow oils change shop to use their oil if they crack open sealed containers in front of me. Too many shops don't always use what they charge you for. I am a 37 year old professional and have not beat on the truck. No traffic accidents, no engine mods, no drag racing.... I just truly love high performance.

I am upgrading to a new vehicle. So... here we are. Email or message me through ebay... I will reply.

2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

Jeep's Super 'Ute Is Fun Thrown In The Face Of Conventional Wisdom
Let's talk asses for a moment. What do they have to do with the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT, you ask?
Well, we're here to tell you that this SRT can haul some. Lots of them, as a matter of fact: Jeep has increased the towing capacity of its most powerful SUV to 7,200 pounds. Assuming the average donkey weighs about 400 pounds, the Grand Cherokee SRT can haul ass to the tune of 18 burros, give or take a covered trailer or so, which is significantly more than it could in previous years. In 2013, the machine could manage 5,000 pounds, while the first generation was rated at just 3,500. The increase is mostly attributable to a new eight-speed automatic transmission and beefier rear axle, and it's a welcome update for those who'd like to use their SUV as, well, an SUV with an emphasis on utility.

WWII Jeep 'found in crate' set to cross Greenwich auction block

Thu, 30 May 2013

Fans of old military vehicles might want to pay extra close attention to the Greenwich Concours d'Elegance coming up this weekend. Crossing the Bonhams auction block on Sunday are a pair of seemingly flawless World War II Jeeps, which are both expected to fetch serious dollars.
Lot Number 305 at the auction is a 1945 Ford GPW Jeep that has been fully restored, which is expected to command between $35,000 and $45,000. Shortly after the Ford GPW, a potentially more interesting 1944 Willys MB (shown above) will be auctioned off, but Hemmings raises some red flags about this Jeep. First, it is claiming to have been "discovered in its original crate about 30 years ago," but there is no proof or documentation of any sort. Also, it is claiming to be all original, but it was given a paint job "shortly after it was discovered." Even with these questionable descriptions, this Willys could reach between $20,000 and $30,000. Head over to Bonhams' site and Hemmings for more information on both WW2-era Jeeps.
