Fr-s vs jeep grand Cherokee

Just kidding, it's been a while since I saw a rediculous comparison on here. I just couldn't resist.

haha, I actually got rid of my jeep grand cherokee when I bought my FR-S. Kinda miss it too, Jeep's are awesome. Sold it with ~170k miles and the trans was starting to have issues...so it was time to get what little $$$ I could get before it became an expense.

I can see it now: "Jeep lines up with FR-S at the drag strip. The Christmas tree drops green, and they're off! Oh wait, no, just the FR-S is off. The Jeep is suffering transmission problems."

Here you go...

Jeep Wrangler destroyed the back... Grand Cherokee destroyed the front. Both jeeps definitely won.
