Ok let me start off by saying, I can't remember EVER driving a vehicle slower than this jeep. It's a 02 grand cherokee 4.0L I6. This thing took 13 seconds to get to 60! WTF! lol. Ok so now for the rx8. My stepmom was riding w/ me and she honestly thinks this thing is fast. W/out exaggerating, it felt about as fast as my wifes stock cobalt 2.2L lmao! I'm sure elevation had something to do w/ it, but seriously i hammered it all the way to 9000rpms and this thing isn't fast. Even at sea level, I know our trucks would beat it. Needless to say, I came home, jumped in my truck and went for a little tire spinning joy ride. lol
Kinda makes you grateful for what you have.

Drink more. It probably won't help you understand better, but it just might, and that's a chance worth taking....
