Default Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8... Anybody with one?

I am starting to really like the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8. I love the Jeep products and I really like to drive fast but I need to be able to pull a trailer/boat sometimes and I don't think it's a great truck for that. Does anyone have or have any thoughts oneway or the other?
I think the black one's are bad ass looking...

The SRT-8's dont have hitches....let alone room for one with that center exhaust they have....they are bad a$$ though! Theres one around my work here that i think has been modded....sounds wicked and the guy romps on it going down my street here leaving work almost daily.

Wally,
I have found a Class I hitch for it that fits in the center behind the exhaust and it's rated at 3500 lbs.
I need to go test drive one.

wow realy? then it must fit with the stock exhaust, the one thats around me here must have a different exhaust on it cause there is NO WAY you could fit any kind of hitch on it back there.....unless its something that tucks up and above the exhaust and you need to cut out a hole in the rear bumper for it...
