TB SS vs Jeep SRT-8

**scott5** · 03-24-2008, 01:06 PM

i was wondering if anyone has seen a comparison on these two vehicles up against one another. They both are awesome vehicles and these are not for me, My dad is looking at them for my mom. He is partial to the jeep cause she had two already, but test drove the TB SS and liked it. Anyone have any links that he could read up?

well my dad does have money but he still drives a 01 tacoma with 156k miles cause he is too stingy to buy a new truck, so price also has something to put into the mix cause he found a fully loaded ss for 33k and a srt-8 43k USED.. So for the money and features and durablilty, jeep still a better buy? I personally am trying to get him into buying a jeep.

The Jeep SRT8 will hold it's resale value as compared to the TB SS. The TB SS will get better fuel economy however, but it's just not as buttoned (braking, handling, steering, etc...) down as the Jeep.

yea i doubt my mom will be taking it to the extreme but she probably will take which ever up the track. SHe just called and said they were going to ohio to look at a SRT-8. so hopefully they will bring it home

I would say the resale value is wrong info. Being in the business, Dodge/chrysler have THE WORST trade-in resale in the business. However I might know someone who can sell either of these vehicles and can do crazy pricing on them. So either way your parents decide, PM me and i'll hook yah up!

Well they may be calling cause my mom did not like the color on the one they went and looked at so they are going up this weekend to check a silver SS out and after that they may be getting a hold of ya.. Thanks dan

comparing both used..the Jeep SRT8's hold their value better than the TB SS from what I have seen. A regular Grand Cherokee...forget about it
