Since we are talking about fast SUVs here. Why doesn’t Chevy put 650hp or 755 hp in one of their SUVs?

I dislike Dodge's steering wheel radio controls. Instead of giving you the buttons to allow you to go back and forth thru your saved stations, you have a button that makes you go thru every saved station in one direction. So if you have 12 presets, you have to go thru all 12 of them before you can get back to one. It sounds silly but it is annoying as all hell. That and the seats...the edges are too mushy. After about 10K miles you'll start to notice they're getting flattened and once that happens you'll be sliding around in them. And the Adaptive Cruise Control is annoying too. Instead of giving you the option to turn the adaptive portion on or off it is automatically on whenever cruise control is on. And sometimes it is very sensitive or brakes hard when it doesn't have to or takes too long to accelerate again. These are some reasons why I'll probably never buy another FCA product again.

Regarding the Trackhawk.... I took my kids out one day looking at muscle cars. They are 12 and 9 so this is like a super cool time for us. Anyhow, the Chrysler dealer had one in the showroom. Nice SUV for sure. I loved it and I’m not a big fan of Mopar. But here in Canada, the msrp was $119, 000!!! Yeah not cheap. But the kids and I certainly liked it. |
Why not go here and try to win one. I won my zl1 1le from them last September.

My Mom, my sister in law and my daughter in law drive an SUV. Nothing wrong with that, those women are the center of my universe. Disclaimer; my wife drives a pick up truck... she's awesome.
In my experience, SUV is an acronym for a high profile station wagon. (Suburban not included, that is some old school family carrying, Airstream and racecar towing magic.:thumb: IMO, SUV is the bastard child of a truck and a car. For those who can't quite decide what they want. Ultimately you lose on both ends, one way or the other, you are sacrificing performance and/or personnel/cargo carrying and towing capability. Sure you could tow with a Trackhawk, but it ain't built for that. I suppose that you could haul na keiki to baseball practice too... at the risk of getting sideways. That's not practical either. Why sacrifice top heavy for grip if performance is your goal? ...not a hater, just saying. If you need to get the kids safely to school and the ballpark, buy something practical. When they are older, there will be plenty of time (and you will have more capital) to focus on performance. Just be careful which kid you give the keys to. |

car revs...in first gear..to REDline...when the clutch is fully depressed.. happens too often..a few times a week.. |
I've spent more than a couple of nights diving into bunkers with 230mm rockets flying overhead and far too many miles concerned about EFPs in my life to ever buy an FCA product.
To each his own. |
