NO, The SRT8 is "AWD" not a "4x4" HUGE difference. No low range gear reduction with dedicated 50/50 split for off road use.

WTF?

Here is the list of 100K+ Jeeps I have owned and their milege.

-1987 Wrangler black. 220,000 when sold.
-1987 Wrangler Blue sold it at 280,000, currently over 400,000 with the current owner.
-1983 CJ7 sold with 130k
-1993 Grand Cherokee sold with 130K
-2000 Grand Cherokee totalled when loaned to a friend(t-boned), with 140K.
-1998 Wrangler sold at 165K current owner has 185K on it.

Have had more but either they were old and no accurate speedo or sold before 100K for other reasons.

Are they the build quality and features of Porsche? No. Can they be relaible? Yes.

The video claims the Pepper to be a Turbo S however in the side view, it looks more like a GTS (Blacked-out B-pillar, aero-kit, Sport Design 21's, etc...).

Besides, at 500+ HP shouldn't the Pepper wipe out the SRT8?

The SRT8 can't do this.

Or this.

....but it gets off the line well with deep gear ratios and a big displacement v8.

The pepper is still heavier and isnt a 6 liter like the SRT8.......some SRT8 go up to 7.1 liter stroker engines with superchargers and blow 600-700 horsepower.

Not sure what both are packing, Pepper has EVOtech.........too.

Bigbuzuki.........would that violate the warrant for exceed towing weights

Default Nice line's in the corner LOL

That Cayenne looks almost as good as the 911's taking that corner. I agree... you probably don't want to try that in ANY suv other than a Cayenne. That was great! LOL
