New Version of Grand Cherokee SRT Caught Testing in Desert?

| Our friends over at AutomotiveTraveler.com recently spied several vehicles being testing in the Mojave Desert in California. Among them were several Grand Cherokees:The camouflage on the front of the Grand Cherokee SRT8 would seem to indicate that the limited production Grand Cherokee SRT8 will get a new front fascia (the Jeep engineers were probably confirming that the nose job had no ill effects on cooling) at some point in the 2009 model year, possibly with a bump in horsepower. Might the SRT8 engines be getting some sort of gas-saving multi displacement system to de-activate four of its eight cylinders? Possibly, but when the Grand Cherokee SRT8 was launched we were told that the system wasn't compatible with the hyper-performance Hemi. Be sure to check out the entire article for pictures and some additional information.
