This Jeep ROCKS! It really is like having your own private carnival ride!! These poor suckers that have no idea what these things are capable of have no idea what they are missing!! Which is fine with me. :D

I was headed back from a quick nine holes of golf last Saturday morning and the autobahn was clear, so I came to a stop on the on-ramp and just STOMPED on the gas -- come to think of it, I do this all the time!! The sounds this thing makes as it blasts through the gears is such sweet music. The best part for me is when this thing shifts to fifth gear at 140 MPH. I still giggle every time. Fourth just seems to wind out forever!
I had this ass-clown in a Nissan Armada (rollin' on Dubs!) try and keep up the other day as we got on to the autobahn. I baited him to about 85 MPH and then pushed the fun pedal to the floor. Mr. Armada went away......:( Poor dumb bastard. I would have loved to hear what he was saying as his pathetic little 5.6 gave out at about 110... Waahhh. (It's actually not a bad motor, its just fun talking trash on the forum)

Yeah, yeah, the top speed photos are on the way!

Bahn, keep up the great driving. You take this vehicle to the limits everyday, so your observations and insights are highly valued. Please keep us up-to-date as to how the Jeep maintains.

And keep ruthlessly punishing all competitors.

It is my absolute pleasure to "test" this vehicle at high speed for you. It would be interesting to see how this engine stacks up after 10000 miles against a Stateside motor that is run at half the speed with the same miles. My only ***** right now is the weather! We have had LOTS of rain - the forecast has rain in nine out of the next ten days!! - I generally don't drive it on rainy days. I know that sounds bad, but black cars just don't look good dirty! :) I have to admit that as nice as the G35 Coupe is to drive, I just can't wait to drive the Jeep! Come on sun!!
So, I will take one for the team and keep winding this thing out as often as possible. The things I have to do for research!! Now about that 426 stroker motor........

And DAMN that dude had a HAIRY ARM!!!! (See funniest thread on the internet)
