For $50,445 , I would expect it to run well under a 13.9 .

Hell , if they put a Powerdyne on it they are cheap as hell ! The web site
describes the SCs on the 281 and the 351 as "...Optional: Saleen Roots
style supercharger,water-to-water intercooler..." and for the 351 "...351
cid (5.8L) Saleen Centrifugal Supercharged OHV 90 degree V-8..." sounds
like the same SC on both cars .

...HAHAHAHAHA! I was just reading the performance page for the Saleen
Explorer , and on the top , it says "Nothing Compares with Saleen
Performance !" and then it lists the Saleen Explorer and then the Jeep GC
5.2 . The *ONLY* thing that the Saleen did better was Lateral Acceleration
! The GC whooped it on every other point !

What a bunch of idiots !
