Not a car but as fast or faster than most!
I bought this 2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 for my wife this past Christmas.

Soooo.....TxCHLF car rally/meet up?

We can go drive curvy backroads out FM3090 and SH 30. Maybe go out to eat somewhere. And maybe go shoot somewhere too. Idunno. Throwing it out there. :clapping:

I've got an 07' Vette. Just now got to pull it out of the garage this past weekend and drive it since the weather is halfway decent. If I had the money I would have a new ZR1. Now that's a car!

Here's my toy:

If we have a TX CHL car rally I'll show up but you guys are going to be watching me trying to catch up in your rear view mirror. My CUCV and Suburban are sloooooowwwwwww. But it's ok they are reliable.
My posts on this website are worth every cent you paid me for them.

HAH, same here... my 86 broke down every time I went to the mall "rlol" I wish I was joking.

I bought an 88 after that and it was significantly more reliable, but still not great...

I'm looking at a new Camaro, but don't know if my gun cases with even fit in the car. I might have to go pistol only!

Wouldn't have that problem with a Mustang. The gun cases and range bags fit real nice! ;-)
