Saw one of these yesterday, I didn't even know such an engine exsisted! 
hock: Of course, it's rediculous, making only 310HP, but 553TQ, and I read that with a chip, torque is easily 650. Seems like a lot of engine for that SUV, and not practical for any other reasonably priced vehicle. I don't know what they're going for-- I guess if nothing else, it out-tows just about anything. It better though, with prices starting at 57k....
