Time really does FLY - just like my Beast! Next month will be my 2 year anniversary for my build. Honestly, aside from a couple of recall, small item stuff and a minor tranny (the "10k issue") I have been VERY pleased as an owner. I STILL get admirations while crusing along. It feels like I have a brand new vehicle everytime I get into my truck. My habit has been getting a new car every two years. I just do not have the interest of looking around for that "something special." Sure, there are a few cars out there that I would love to have BUT they are not as "special" as a 6.1/420 HP GC SRT/8. I am looking for creativety and imagination...and I cannot find that out there today. Does anyone else feel the same way about there Beast?

I have only had mine for seven months....but it never gets old...I still stare at when I walk away...sometimes I will stick my head out the door and start it, just to hear it...and I always get a hard-on everytime I sit in it, start it, and roll away!!! I see me keeping this vehicle for a very long time!

Matt, I see in your sig, that you had your resonators removed. How much louder is it with them off?

Very noticeable...a lot louder than stock...there is a nice hum inside the Jeep as well!

It never gets old!

I couldn't agree more. I came out of the DMV yesterday looked at the Jeep and said to myself, "Damn that that truck is sexy."
The wife took off down the driveway today and i actually went over to the window to watch it, i mean her, from behind....:)
I still think the stock exhaust sound is the best oem sound ever!
My 6yr old son absolutely loves when i punch it (no idea where he gets that from:rolleyes:)
It seems to go on and on.

lovin this ride since before even owning it. ;) it's hard to not want to do good things for it, like modding it.

Wonderful machine. I just got mine three weeks ago and I could se my self getting something else as a DD eventually and driving the SRT8 on weekends or something, try to keep mileage down eventually. I am almost scared to go drive it because i dont want anything bad to happen to it. Its like my baby, i just want to wax and polish it up and stare at it......and of course start it and put a smile on my face

except for the dumb*** owner before me had a problem in reverse...a little dent on the chrome trim piece on the back and a scratch or two on the bumper...and swirl marks like crazy, but what are you going to do. after all I did buy it used, i should have expected something like this. ill just give it a good wax or two and its all good. In the big scheme of things I LOVE IT

I'm the same way, go through car every 12-24 months and must say my 08 will stay a while...likely longer. I can't get over how good it looks. I asked my wife to drive it today on the way to drop her car off at the dealer....what an in your face look...actually reminds me a lot of the GMC Typhoon in terms of presence. Love it!

funny, i was thinking the same thing the other day. i've had the rig for almost a year and a half now, 23k miles. any other car and i'd be looking for an exit point already - but w/ this baby i'm still careful w/ the paint, appearence, etc. i hesitate taking it out in the rain, and make sure to wash it asap if i do. it's the first vehicle i've ever owned which I actually want to put more $ into - mod-wise. i totally see myself driving this badboy for a long time. it's just too much fun to let go.

Lets put it this way...I'll sell my house before selling the jeep.:D
The vehicle to me is like "Rolling Sex on Wheels":sex:....can't get enough of a good thing!

LOL! Well said.

Despite some of its compromises, this is the best vehicle I've ever owned. For me, at least, it fits like a glove. Right out of the box.
