Was playing around Sunday evening(9ish) when we found the 1st version of the Gtech in the garage. Only one run, 38 degrees, wanted to see if gtech still worked, 0-60mph was 4.56 seconds. Give or take a tenth, I still had a small grin:D A little fun for a Sunday evening.
No room for a 1/4 mile run.

This is the third post I have seen with a reading of 4.4 to 4.5. Why is it that Jeep doesn't make this claim? They only state "in under 5 seconds".
The Porsche Cayenne Turbo vs. the Turbo S is only a .4 second difference, and the S costs way more money(5.2 vs 4.8). Why doesn't Jeep take advantage of this full extra half second?

Because the catch phrase "under 5 wet or dry" sounds better and is more marketable!
Figure the performance is probably around 4.4-4.6 dry and 4.9 wet.

The best part, in which I forgot to mention, there were 3 people my Jeep too.

Good stuff! Did you start in drive or did you use the slap stick and manually bang the gears? Just curious.

I can't believe you had three people! Did you need witnesses? Time it again with just yourself, see if it clocks in any faster.

Just stomp and go!
