At Briggs Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram we love the Grand Cherokee and the new 2014 Grand Cherokee in Lawrence has taken the Grand Cherokee to new levels of luxury, performance and refinement.  The Grand Cherokee’s performance is excellent for most of us but what about those of us who seek a vehicle with something extra in the performance department?  Well there is always the Grand Cherokee SRT model with 470 HP from its 6.4L HEMI V8 right.  What about those of us who want even more than 470 HP and 4.6 sec runs to sixty?  Well you could go with something like the Porsche Cayenne Turbo S or with a Hennessey Grand Cherokee SRT.  The Cayenne is nice, but the Hennessey Grand Cherokee SRT beats it big in the price and performance department; continue reading for more.
