That was the other downer with the TB SS vs. GC SRT. The TB could still tow.

That no trailer hitch always bothered me about the GC SRT-8 but i guessing there's a few guy's on the GC SRT forums that have changed to tail pipes location and ran a hitch to tow their toys.

A few years ago when I was comparing the 2 the SRT-8 seemed to be a better decision for me based on standard features and styling. Power plant's are about equal and the SS has more aftermarket engine parts but those SC'd SRT-8's can fly vs the modded SS video's I see.

I had one. The motor went out on mine at 17k. It was still under warranty. It ran 12.80 with tag still in window. They are very nice trucks but my customer experience after the blown motor left a bad taste. They did not give me a loaner or rental vehicle. I paid 32k for mine brand new when the market was terrible for them. 60k is way over cost and someone was looking to go on an extended vacation at that price.
