Default Stupid Jeep

Jeep Grand Cherokee has 5.7-liter Hemi V8 that has 330 hp and 375 tq
Audi TT roadster 225 has 225 hp 207 tq
325xi AWD 184 hp 175 tq

Why do you compare a Midsize SUV to a coupe or sedan
the hemi is more than twice the size of the engin in the TT
They aren't even in the same class
They all serve different purposes
I hate how they say can conquer everything else
The 325xi and TT arent even ment to go off roading
I bet the Jeep Grand Cherokee would flip over on the track

I just want to say I hate it when they do stupid comparisons
At least compare the Jeep Grand Cherokee to the
BMW X5 4.8is
Ford Explorer
Infiniti FX45
Vehicles that can go off roading and serve the same perpose

Maybe they affraid the Jeep Grand Cherokee my be out done by real
Mid Size SUV

Doesn't seem there's much merit to that comparison. Speaking of flipping over on the track, I almost rolled the Jeep rental car I had last time my A4 was in for service. I forgot what I was driving for a second there and tried to take a clover leaf off ramp about 20 mph faster than that Jeep wanted to. Note to self, not good.

I had a 2000 grand cherokee before my Audi, and i loved it. Although i have to say that my audi is 100000 times better :-D

i love going around corners fast and actually feeling a pull, i almost flipped my jeep multiple times, plus my audi is faster

but the jeep was a good car, it was nice to ram shopping carts when they are in your way, and jumping curbs, and all that good stuff....

I wonder what that Jeep's top speed is (or safe top speed). I bet it's still 80 mph.

80mph?.... With 330hp i think it will do more then that, thats only the sport package that sits lower.
