Finally brought it home with a fresh 5.3l Boss BB stroker, shopping for a blower now.

^^Nice.
I wanted a '16 SRT Jeep till I read about all the transmission issues. Such a great looking vehicle though, inside and out.

Thank y'all. I appreciate it. Blues my favorite color & I used to think the Jetstream Blue on the C6 vettes were the best stock blue, until I saw the B5 Blue from Dodge. It's like Jetstream Blue, with alot more flake. I love it. Only other color I'd consider is Plum Crazy Purple.

Thanks. The transmission issues are way overblown by forums--as usual. The same transmission is used across a lot of different platforms. People expect the SRT to shift soft and smoothly at all times, and get upset when they can feel it shift. The biggest complaint seems to be the downshifts--the downshifts can be aggressive and it uses a lot of engine braking. Combine that with people thinking they are buying a regular grand cherokee (who may have never had a performance car in their life) and then you get what you read about.

That's one pretty Roush.
Thank you sir!

That is gorgeous!! Love it.
B5 looks so good on the Hellcat Charger. Enjoy.

Yeah,...true. I wasn't crapping on the SRT's. I think they are killer. They look awesome. LIke I posted above, I was dead set on one. As far as the 8 speed goes,........I have one in my '16 Ram Sport. I really haven't felt any hard clunks. I think that shares the same as the SRT, IIRC.
