The Jeep is way faster and a much better vehicle for the segment it serves. The C/D test is [censored] IMO because you're testing SUV's that are designed to act like sports cars in ever aspect. If you read why they picked the SS over the SRT, its because of crap like cargo space and leg room in the back. If you're looking for "cargo space" and "leg room" and still looking at the SS or SRT, you're an idiot. C/D should have baseed their results off what consumers would buy either vehicle for...the wolf in sheeps skin idea. '03 SRT-4 50 trim turbo + support

I'm trying to get her to lean towards the upcoming Buick Enclave (replacement for the Ranier and Rendezous), but I heard a rumor theres going to be an Equinox SS and that would probably make more sense due to her drive being longer now (we're moving) BTW, wheres Ford in all this, oh yeah, "moving ahead" or "Ford-ward ahead" or whatever they're doing nowadays "THEE" Roger R USMondeo@aol.com 2005 Crossfire Limited coupe' -FOR SALE @buyout price & I'll... -throw in my 93' Regal as winter car Dragon Run 06'...Oct 12-15th Puur-fection Auto Detailing Complete packages from $140.00
