2015 JEEP
Grand Cherokee SRT
I have a craving for a hamburger…. Road Trip!
Load up the kid and head out to a meet some friends
at my favorite burger joint. On the road under normal
conditions it drives like a normal SUV. Once you settle
in, driving this is quite pleasant. Now it is time for one
to explore all these neat driving modes.
Snow Mode or as I call it “pointless”with wide sport
summer tires and all that horsepower no mode on the
planet is going to make this thing OK to drive in the
snow. Auto, if you’re just tooling around town this is
your mode. Easy, mellow shifts, calm throttle response
just your every day SUV just not boring.
Sport mode is the mode for me on most days,
quicker throttle response crisper shifts happening at
higher RPMs and not as much coasting. This thing
is fast! If you put your foot into it you will smile as it
sounds like you just pissed off a T-Rex.
If Sport Mode is Ludicrous Speed then Track Mode
is going Plaid.
Okay Track Mode is crazy, crazy fun! Launch control off the line BAM! On the massive brakes BAM! Turn
in, accelerate out BAM! Where have you been all my
life! On ramps, off ramps, highway, back roads, the
track and everything in between. Are you kidding
me? This is a 5000+ pound SUV. I drive a lot of different
vehicles, I mean a lot, and all I can think of is I have got
to get me one of these. Fast and fun, I like everything
about this Jeep.
