I saw it on an Auto Program ( It was on the speed channel)
It ran a 15.25 in quarter. I had a Jeep and I think there junk.
Mabe they will put the HEMI into a Dakota?

Just my 2 cents

Jeeps are

IMO. I would much rather have a Z71 Suburban. However 15.25 1/4 is something I cannot argue with.

So if the Jeep with a HEMI runs a 15.25. Then why/how are the Rams with the HEMI running so much slower.

yeah.. I used to have a grand cherokee. They are pretty quick for SUV's.

They share the same motors that the Ram's, etc. have and they are pretty freaking light w/ AWD and 373's.

Aside from those heavy dodges, these HEMI jeeps have alot of potential.

.. I'm not a fan of the IFS though.. seriously it's "JEEP"
