I really like the srt8 jeeps. I would love to buy one but way out of my price range. So I plan to turn my wifes 2000 durango into something comparable.

The truck is very fast for an SUV, the launch control is pretty amazing and it even can test things like 0-60 and 1/4 times and trap speed. I haven't pushed it very much as far as handling and braking but think my X5 was a little better in that dept. Although the X5 is a smaller, shorter, lighter truck. Overall for the price compared to say an X5M or ML63 I think you are getting alot more bang for the buck and it looks better than the ML for sure.
Thanks for the info Ryan, I should have one soon.

Was the Borlar exhaust the best you heard?

The Borla S-type sounds great, theres a louder Atak version that I didn't want for a DD. There are full cat back systems and LT headers that combine for some really nice sound. I was very close to getting a Kooks system but didnt realize alot of the full cat backs eliminate the baffles for the MDS system which I did not want to disable and hence went with the Borla axle back system. I also did the Injen cold air intake and Eibach lowered springs (rear only) which I'm not happy with I wish it lowered the ride height a bit more.

Yeah,....the SRT 8 is a bad ass machine.
I do love those X5's as well. I was behind one yesterday after morning mass. What a great looking SUV, especially with those super fat tires tucked underneath.

Thanks again Ryan, great info, now I just have to choose a color :headscratch:

Rybar 02-10-2014 07:56 PM
Not alot of choice but I like the color of mine Granite Crystal metallic or white looks pretty badass
