Jeep's refreshed Grand Cherokee isn't everyone's cup of tea, but it's still one impressive vehicle for the money. To our eyes, they could have left well enough alone with the design and just done the equipment updates, but the bottom line is there's a new SRT model, and while it ditches the "8" from the name, it's improved in several respects.

For the full details on the new 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT, check...
