No meet, just saw a bunch of them driving around. I couldn't imagine that none of them were some sort of enthusiasts. I think from what I've looked up, there are probably some MN enthusiasts, but aren't part of any groups or something major like we mostly see in the Events section.

Bummer... It has never been easy finding like minded people (other than friends) in minnesota... must be the winter season that screws it up.

I have a grand cherokee as well although not an srt8 its an 04. Did you buy it from Park Jeep? If your a jeep fan I can hook you up lol tons of meets. We are friends of the family who own Park Jeep and most of the guys who do the work on our family jeeps from over the years now work here at Burnsville off road. http://www.burnsvilleoffroad.com/ Most people who have a jeep or in your case have had one, their lifted toy is usually in the garage just thought I would ask.

I bought the jeep in CHI town when my Diesel truck blew its 3rd turbo... it was modded to the sky. I just walked in and saw a SRT8 jeep and I thought ehh what the hell. I only put about 23k miles on it. its now at sears imports.
