Ok so I walk over to Barns n Noble today during work to pick up a sandwitch and while the chick is heating it up or whatever, I decide to go look at the mags for a bit. I opened the new Truck Trend and do a quick once over to see if they feature the SRT8 at all....(no mags ever give us props or do a nice full review...well nearly no mags) ...anyway, I flipped through it and what do I see......

A really short article but they basically gave the Jeep SRT8 the nod over the rest of the usuals...(Porsche,AMG,Range Rover,and a few others).
They briefly said that the SRT8 has the best balance of power and affordability. The article had each vehicles cost, power, 0-60, etc... surprisingly...or not, we didn't have the fastest 0-60. The Mercedes did, they had us at 4.8sec (lol!)
Whatever, At least we got the nod over the rest and that's still a victory in my book, besides we know who's really faster 0-60....just look at my signature Mr. AMG :cool:

Even on my worst day I have never had a 4.8 sec 0-60 high 3 second to low 4 second SUV, we have the best 0-60 then most sports cars on the road.

Damn I love this truck.

how in the **** do they say our trucks run slower than an ML 63 0 to 60. I've seen at least 3 videos of our trucks just straight up ass ****ing ML's.

I guess they have to let the other car manufactures feel good about something or the magazine will be losing test cars for the future. Which ain't bad in my book because we can then have more bigger write ups on the Jeep. We all know that when it comes to those others, the Jeep performs magic: abra-ca-da-bra...now you see me...............................and now you don't :D

I do the same thing when im at the bookstore...flip through any possible magazine where there may be a chance that the beast is featured...good find, minus about .5 seconds
