I finally stopped by my Dodge, Chrysler, Jeep dealer and saw one up close. It's looks better in person and I'm very impressed with the features and everything. It's a super nice vehicle... I would have taken it for a test drive, but instead, I took out a Charger SRT-8 and 300C SRT-8... oh yes... they let me... OH THE POWER!

Haha sorry but.. no **** you strongly suggest people check it out. You're a marketing rep.
No offense what so ever. Just couldn't help it.

You are still lucky as heck Chase. I have never heard a 6.1ltr Hemi running in real life. And no SRT other than the 4..

HAHA if you think Chase is bad......I've been in or around every SRT model car that's been put out except the Caliber....as I havent gone to any show to see it. I've driven an SRT-4 Neon, SRT-8 Charger/300C, and two SRT-10 Rams. I've seen about a dozen different Vipers over the last couple of years, mostly down at the track....and I've sat in the Magnum, Crossfire, and Cherokee SRT models...

In fact, I sat in a Charger SRT-8 this past Thursday at the dealership while my car got a look over....much better looking then the base model thats for sure...
