Default what JEEP can it be?

was driving on the motorway today, when a jeep.. yep jeep was behind me at speed at a distance, so i thought i put my foot down, however it can keep up with me in acceleration.
what can it be?, we both went to the same exit, all i can notice was it kinda had a red/silver badge on its right side of the boot

I know nothing about Jeeps but I suggest you start by giving us details of the car you were driving? Power etc?

Yep - will be an SRT-8

I nearly bought one, but you can't fit a tow bar because of the exhausts in the middle

As others have said it will be the ever so slightly nuts SRT8. I think it's something like 0-60 in 5 seconds, not bad for a big beast

it is almost as crazy as the dodge ram sr/10 or whatever it is called. Basically a dodge viper engine in a dodge ram pickup.

Both of them are mad but do sound very nice

oh and you can get a supercharger kit for he SRT8!

P.S. Doesn't handle that bad for a supertanker..... goes well enough to about a ton, on Elvington of course !
