Great videos.....have used several items and suggestions for my 2018 Jeep Track Hawk...... Had my Track Hawk ceramic coated, full front end and mirror Expel wrapping and rims painted gloss black. Had this done my Eurotech located in Mahwah NJ. The are super professionals with all mods. I purchased my 2018 Track Hawk from Dover Jeep and Dodge, lo ated on route 46 in Dover NJ. My window list price was $99,700. The deal was finally renegotiated down to $85,000. The Hawk has leather and all options except a tow package. I thought was a great price for a "race truck"!!!

I’m 19 im saving money until I’m 20 when the market somewhat returns back to normal then I’m probably going to buy the SRT Jeep Grand Cherokee and then upgrade to the track hawk in the next decade I do want to do physical appearance modifications like a wrap maybe RGB lights (I’ll take everything back off if I ever trade it in) plus I love how the roof is being covered completely so if I don’t want to have light inside of the cabin I don’t have to roll it back and I know I’m for sure going to get a warranty on the truck I have a 2012 Cruze and I mean everything that could go wrong on the car went wrong on the car but everything is fixed now so I’ll probably keep it until next year unless it gives like major issues then I’ll see what I can do from there

Speaking for the Canadian Market- The issue is the price of buying a used SRT and boosting it is still cheaper than getting a Trackhawk. Here you can pick up a used SRT for around $45K and boosting it lets say another 10K. Our Trackhacks go for anywhere between $100K to $140K

The price of the trackhawk has really come down a lot. You couldn’t find one for less than $100k in my area in the first 3-4months they were out. Now they are sitting on dealer lots and you can get great deals, in the low 80s range. This video lays it out perfectly. Rumor is the next gen gc will be on the stelvio platform. I’m waiting to see what this next gen has in store, curious to see if they bring the trackhawk back even those sales are less than stellar, and since they won’t be using the srt on anything but dodge anymore will it be trackhawk and trackhawk jr? Seems many manufacturers are moving away from v8s in favor of fuel economy, like the new raptor. I sure hope dodge/Jeep keep pumping out the v8 power

I think something that needs to be said with TrackHawk is Chrysler has strengthened the transmission and cooling on TrackHawk and that is worth it in long term(not to mention brakes and suspension). As a Jeep Grand Cherokee owner, I full agree, get Mopar extended warranty. I got the lifetime and that may not be available any longer but you can still get them for 100k. In 100k I have had emissions module, oil pan housing, oil pump, transmission/coolant intercollegiate, Steering rack and multiple window regulator and hatch struts replaced, the Mopar warranty is fantastic and pays for itself

Seems like you would know this already with all your time in a GC, but I didn't see you do it, so I'm gonna throw it out there....while she's talking, you can just turn the volume knob to quickly change the Nav voice volume, but ONLY while she's currently talking. Much easier than going into the Nav settings to change the volume. After half a year in my new SRT (which I do love), I'm already thinking I should have just gone with the Trackhawk (it didn't take long to want more power!). I may still trade it for a 2020, since 2021 is now slated for the new platform (after being bumped numerous times from the original plan of 2018), and I will never buy an all new model in its first year. Nice job, as usual, on the video.

My JEEP SRT's AWD system started experiencing problems at around 55,000 miles. By 60,000 miles I got a warranty repaired rear differential and AWD service. By 70,000 miles I needed to rebuild the AC system, mostly covered by warranty, but still cost me around $600 and 3 service trips. Now I'm hitting 80,000 miles and ready to trade it for a Cadillac Lyriq AWD - which is taking so long to get, I'm watching gas pass $4.10 per gallon against and interest rates go up yet again. I want out of this thing NOW, but the replacement isn't ready yet. It feels like life is on hold and everything is stagnant. I absolutely have the money ready in cash, but the car won't be built for another 2 weeks. I am thankful I didn't buy a Trackhawk and bought another piece of real estate property because if I was in the Trackhawk right now, I'd be trying to get out of that too.

Good video , I would say there is a little misinformation though. If you do any modifications you DO NOT lose your warranty. If you modify the engine more then likely they will not cover items on your engine because they can blame the modifications for the failure. But all the other items on your vehicle would still be covered under warranty!

I have a 2012 JGC SRT and I’ll tell you right now. If you buy new or especially used buy the best extended warranty you can. I purchased a bumper to bumper and thank god I did. I’ve had several of the problems he mentions in the video. Carbon fiber trim, Water pump, tire pressure monitor valve stem broke in half . One day I got in to start it and it had a nasty ticking sound (65000 miles) I was hoping it was a exhaust manifold leak but it was the lifters. That job alone at the dealer cost $4800. They replaced the lifters and cam. It was down for a month. I still have 3 years left of the warranty so I’ll be ok. Would I buy this vehicle again? Absolutely! There is just something about having the best of both worlds. Speed and luxury. It was bone stock until recently. CORSA put on a CAI and cat back and I’m telling you it is worth every penny. If I ever trade it will be for the TrackHawk.

I am thinking you’re reducing the resale value of the SRT when you do the supercharger on your own (non factory). You may have got a decent trade-in with that dealer you dealt with in PA but they also ❤️ you because you’re going to talking them up on your channel and they’d be foolish to not offering a deal you couldn’t refuse, deny it if you want. Even when I’m shopping for a (used) SRT, I am going to be deterred when I see an SRT that was modified with an aftermarket blower, however high-quality you say the ProCharger is. Maybe that’s just me but (IMO) I think other buyers will likely too.

I can’t comment on the other vehicles since I don’t own them, but the Trackhawk has terrible gas mileage. However, you don’t buy one for gas mileage. You buy it to have fun in and know in advance that it’s expensive. If you were to pick one now what would I suggest? A Redeye. Faster than a Demon and cheaper. They’re already putting the Demon tune on them and running low 9s

I look at it this way: For $50K you can have a Grand Cherokee Overland with a 5.7L Hemi that will be faster than 80% of the vehicles on the road today. For another $20K you can get a SRT and raise that up to 90% and for another $20K you can get a Trackhawk and raise it to 95%. "Band for the buck" the 5.7L is the big winner. There will always be someone faster, it all depends on how deep you pocket is.

I don’t know who told you that the 5.7L Overland will beat 80% of the vehicles on the road today, but you’re wrong. They run close to 16 seconds on the quarter mile with a 0-60 of almost 8. They’re so slow for a Heni it’s embarrassing. A KIA runs a faster quarter mile. Who told you that it’s fast? You can’t even beat a Hyundai with it.

@@EastCoastJeepSRT 5.7L Chrysler factory spec is 0-60 in 6.5sec, the SRT 1.2 sec. better and the Trackhawk 3 sec. better . The 80% is just my conservative starting point but with the price of gas and what type of cars most people are buying, this figure may be higher. What Hyundai or Kia SUV are you referring too, I could not find any that come close to a 6.5 time? No matter how you look at it the stock 5.7L Grand Cherokee is a sweet ride for the price and most people do not have $50K to spend for 3 more seconds of speed.

mattsynth gotcha. Was wondering how you came to that number. One advance the 5.7 has is its better gas mileage. It crushes the Trackhawk for mpg. If you want speed and long distance economical driving, the Overland is the way to go. I actually kiss mine for many reasons. Aside from the gas mileage it got it had the ability to lift and lower on demand. In heavy snow I could raise it up 2”, or when exiting drop it down on the wheels. Great feature.

@@EastCoastJeepSRT You are right about that! I've owned a Charger R/T and a Magnum R/T both with the the 5.7 -- When I got my Jeep Limited with the same 5.7 Hemi I was expecting to give up a little performance, but damn It felt like I lost 100hp. That's literally what it feels like. I still love the Jeep because I wanted the offroad abilities, and it still gets outta the hole pretty well, and drives great, but it's much slower that the 5.7 Hemi cars and nowhere near the SRT offerings
