Exactly. The TBSS is a piece of **** in comparison. Anyones whos driven both, or had either of the two on a lift will agree.

Though the LS2 is a better engine (IMO) the rest of the truck is worthless.

I would kind of agree but the reason I bought the TBSS was one I have a 2yr old and jeep was tiny inside. Also had a boat and jeep couldn't tow.

But do agree that the Jeep was engineered and built 1000 times better. I think Chevy just got caught off guard when the srt came out and was like hey we have this big engine and this similar sized SUV, whats the cheapest way to get this into production. I went through three trans in less than three yrs. And I'm still foolish enough to buy another GM. (CTS-V)

So I drove the 426 Stroker Charger SRT8 we had come in today and WOW. It was wet out so I couldn't mess around much, but it is FAST! Our customer went all out and has EVERYTHING they offered. Can only imagine this package in a Jeep!

Until you make any kind of a real turn A high CG vehcile is still a high CG vehcile, it only takes little to throw it off its axis. In any SUV, it wont simply spin around rear first. It will flip over to a assure the death of the driver.
