Officially Ordered - SRT8 Grand Cherokee - SRT Forums

2mchpsi · 03-19-2006, 09:38 PM

As of 3 days ago, I officially own a peice of paper thats says I will own a 2006 SRT8 Grand Cherokee.

The SRT-4 is currently in the process of changing ownership, and as sad as I am to see it go, I know it's going into the right hands, and I'll never forget my first SRT vehicle.

I'm not going to say thanks for the memories and all that sentimental stuff, because I'll still frequent these forums.

So, to a great "First" SRT vehicle, and for many more to come!

Nice upgrade. I sold a ZJ when I bought my SRT-4. I'de love to get into a WK SRT-8. Good luck with the new ride.

Good luck with the 8. They are sick and launch like a bat outta hell!

ain't that the truth.

I think that was the whole marketing purpose of the SRT-4, to get us "youngin's" hooked on the SRT line of vehicles and make future buyers and loyal customers out of us.

I know, that when I can afford the SRT-8 Challanger..I WILL be buying one to go along with my SRT-4. Hopefully they'll have an Orange Blast Challanger

OPEC thanks you! Congrats though, sweet ride! Enjoy that 12 mpg.

It is a great vehicle and getting to take one around Sears Point at 95 MPH sliding and swerving I say to you "you're a lucky sob!" Don't wreck it!

Thanks everyone!

I ended up paying MSRP + TTL for the truck. Cueter Jeep was the only dealership in the area that didn't want 5-7K OVER MSRP. SRT8 Tuner hooked me up with a good refferal.

As far as the picture I put up, it looks like FWP is what the cost to dealership. That explains the gas charge, DETROIT METRO charges (where JNAP keeps most of the finished vehicles before they go to dealerships I beleive, there are at least 100 Jeep Commanders currently at the Detroit Metro Airport Lots), and the Loyalty survey charges, which are zero'd out on the MSRP side.

As soon as I pick it up I will take and post pictures!

Congrats on your purchase. I'm sure you're going to love it.

I don't want to sound like I'm trying to be a bummer, but as you may already know, a VON doesn't mean jack squat until your dealership gets allocation and you get out of BA status. D or D1 is when you have a VIN# and a guaranteed vehicle. If you're dealing with a reputible dealer, I'm sure you have nothing to worry about.

Have fun with the anticipation!! It's a roller coaster ride with a pot of gold at the end!!
