Abuse? They're daily drivers. That was the point from the start...A seriously mean performance car that's also civilized enough for the daily driver. Besides, there's plenty of other guys barely driving theirs to make it ok for other guys to just enjoy theirs as much as possible. And given that he owns 2 of them, I doubt he cares much about losing some of the resale value. I wouldn't either.

IDK... This might have possibilities with me... Almost like having two vehicles in one... A truck/SUV and a sportscar... Doubtful you can light offroad in it, if at all...That's the only negative point about it...Still, it would be great for long cross-country highway trips, and extremely comfortable, too!

So what's the quarter mile time? I don't understand why you wouldn't run the quarter mile and report the time since you're already at the track anyway ESPECIALLY in a 707 HP vehicle.

Ram TRX. Best order NOW.

I love mine. Red with black leather interior. Turning Radius is tight. Interior is done in leather and carbon fiber. It does have every conceivable gimmick installed. Rear heated seats anyone?? Keyless entry and auto lift gate are great. I've only been to135 mph with LOTS left to go. Sunroof / moon roof is nice. This is not junk. I will drive it as it's been designed , cautiously fast until I have a good idea on how it behaves. It is a Monster. . Faster than the Porsche 4S I traded in and has room for five with suitcases. The driveline has been throughly beefed up to handle 707 hp. This is a marquee vehicle so I doubt it will have any problems. I drive very little so my carbon footprint is lower than most every commuter. I don't feel bad that mpg is 13 city 15 highway.

Why not supercharge the 6.4 instead of going down to the 6.2 and why only 2 valves instead of 4 per pot?

Yall forgot about the 1998 5.9 grand cherokee limited. It's the grandaddy of the trackhawk

The yellow brakes are an eyesore. I can't see that red/yellow combo and not think McDonald's. But holy shit, what an awesome vehicle.

E Gibson actually the Jeep Grand Cherokee trackhawk can exceed 180 miles an hour. The Mustang can exceed no more than 175 for the GT350 and gt350r. So with that being said it's certainly can defeat a Mustang GT350

E Gibson I mean from a highway roll you could be right since awd and aero arent great for higher speeds and the high reving more aero body and less loss of powertrain might benefit the mustang but in a quarter mile drag race when traction is everything Or like racing from a red light to another red light the trackhawk will destroy the gt350r mostly everytime .Be an interesting highway race for sure
