Yeah so I cant remember exactly how I stumbled upon this, but I decided to share it. See what everyone though of it. I personally think its disgusting and horrible. How anyone could disgrace a Jeep like that is beyond me, obviously they are missing the whole idea of Jeep as an off-road vehicle.

The SRT8 was never intended to be an off road vehicle. That's the fastest Jeep ever built and was built/sold for a select group of individuals. Besides, nearly every other driver will only see the rear view of that thing on the road any way.JMO

Exactly my thoughts. That is for someone that wants a Jeep instead of some crappy other brand, and wants to be the fastest suv on the streets

looks like a wanna be charger to me. Mopar has really demolished the jeep brand. I don't care what badge you slap on it... that's just not a jeep.

That said, it is a cool fast station wagon. Just has the wrong badge on it.

I like it!!! Anything with Jeep on the front that can flat out run down the highway and look cool is A OK in my book. This model isn't meant to be off road more than a gravel driveway. Who says Jeep can't make a decent looking and high performance road machine?

I swear there's a thread like this on every Jeep forum, some doo doo head who thinks he knows all about Jeeps and it's that they're meant to be chopped up & run through the mud. Grow up.
That's a beautiful machine.

Sorry to sound argumentative guys but...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeep

Jeep is the oldest OFF ROAD vehicle brand... that's what a jeep is... an off road vehicle. So you like the dodge grand cherokee SRT8 street station wagon. Awesome! go get you one. but for the love of god... why must a dodge (a strictly on road one at that) pretend to be a jeep? Think I'm gonna build a mud truck and call it a Corvette Stingray... or maybe call it a Mustang GT
