I really don't see that thing being able to squeeze a 6.1l under the hood...
For starters, all of its current engines are set up transverse, not longitudinal...
It is a FWD/AWD platform after all.
So yeah...
I would definitely believe it if it was a GC SRT8!

Who knows? Would you think there is a 5.7 in a Fbod if you had no clue?
They could of stuffed in a smallish V8 or FI V6 and with AWD it could pull pretty good.

Well, they don't have either of those in their current line up of other cars, I doubt they would design something just for an ugly crossover.
Also, they don't have a fwd transaxle for the current 5.7l or 6.1l. And again, I doubt they would go the extra distance for a crossover thing.
Also, look at the jalopnik page with the photos.http://jalopnik.com/5425883/2011-dod...tos//gallery/2
It says SRT R/T... None of the other SRT vehicles have R/T badges too. I think someone stuck an SRT badge to an R/T Journey.

Like I said, who knows. Im sure itll come out one of these days. At the least it has the SRT4 motor possibly and if they did boost a V6 that would be interesting as well.

It's funny how people judge because it looks slow as hell, or is ugly... These are the same type of people that won't admit it when a gutted civic walks away from them in a run.
The OP might have just found one that is much faster than the stock ones

I'm working in Flint, MI right now and it was snowing here today and say a pewter LS1 SS with CME and all out in the salt 
then a red WS6 T/A out in it too. People need to find beaters

Sure it could be made quick, but I doubt it.

Dear god. They are cars. They are designed to be driven in anything. Take care of it after a snowstorm and the car will look just as good as one that didnt go through it. I always find it funny when people proclaim that it was never driven in rain and snow.
