My buddy has a 2014 Limited. Nice ride. All fancy gizmos inside. Only SUV I'd ever consider owning would be an SRT-8. |
I strongly considered the SRT8,but went with the Limited because of the better AWD system for snow, which is one of the reasons I chose Jeep. Their AWD system in this model is amazing.
-48/52 static split
-100% tq to any 1 wheel using clutches---NOT brakes on the spinning wheel
-ELSD's front and rear
The SRT8 doesn't have that, and it gets 5mpg less across the board.
Still a very sick ride, but just not exactly what I wanted. Maybe as a second vehicle!
The reason I went with 2010 was that it was the last of this body style. The newer Jeeps are considerably slower because they are 400#+ heavier and have the same driveline. Even the 2014 with the 8-speed seems slower from what I've seen. I wanted as much "sport" as I could squeeze into an SUV for around $20K without the mileage or "snow performance" hit.
