What can you say about the new Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT other than this is what a sports SUV is all about. Prodigious power, luxury interior and true 4wd ability.
I had just picked up the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT and drove around the corner to set up the Bluetooth etc when a stranger approached me. At first I thought I was blocking his truck, but he just wanted to chat about the SRT. Turns out he had just bought one and apparently sits in his driveway just listening to the exhaust. Call me strange but that seemed perfectly normal to me as I was pretty much doing the same.
