Hey guys, so I was late for an appointment ths morning so I was hauling balls down the 101 South on the Scottsdale side of the loop (for the Phoenix people), when all of a sudden I came up behind a Jeep SRT8 with Oregon plates
Now this thing caught my eye for a couple of reasons: first, the chrome strip that houses the four back-up sensors was actually black/vinyl, the exhaust tips were larger and single wall, but it was not aftermarket exhaust - unless it was just the tips replaced (we were going about 80 so I think that's fast enough to notice an exhaust humming along).
Then, the biggest thing I noticed was the front fender, there wer fender vents. Not lame stick-on vents, and not those small Cadillac CTS vents, they reminded me of Ford F-250+ vents, large, half squar/triangle looking. It looks nice, but I was totally baffled. He had 22" wheels on it so I guess there's a chance that he's just done some other mods like the vents and exhaust tips, but the back-up sensor strip was the only thing that made me think it was some sort of SRT8 that left the facory like that.
Another thing is, it couldn't have been a '10 cuz it had the Oregon plates, not temporary tags and those things just hit production according to the other post right?
