The Hilly billy way.

The Americans, they are not known for their poise, style or grace. No the land of cheese burgers, large milk shakes, Nascar and Hill Billy', do things a bit different. They are all about power, violence and generally blowing sh#t up, and they are good at it to, that's why they are a supper power. So the way they build cars shouldn't be no different, using the good old moto of "more power, don't worry about the steering". They have created some enjoyable cars to drive. So in the true "home of the free" tradition Jeep has just upped the anti. With its brand new Jeep Cherokee SRT 8.



To start off, jeep took out the "baby" 6,1 liter and put in a new 6,4 liter Hemi V8 with 465 American horses, pulling you to 100 Km /h in 4,8 seconds, and doing the quarter mile in 13 seconds. Which in America that's porn. It has a paddle shift gear box that will push you to 230 Km\h in comfort.



The suspension has also been reworked to improve ride and handling, but in this car chances are you are NOT going to use the track button in the car to do some hot laps. The brakes have also been done to improve stopping by 50%.



But all this is, is just numbers and tech to improve European sales. What this car truly is, is a flag flying, power shoving, tar mac tearing, tyre burning, eco destroying, in your face, get out my way, I will kill you terrorist, I will F#*k you up American car.

And that's the way I like it.
