Nice, isn't the stock time like 7 seconds?
Thinking about picking one of these up.
Does it also have the economy option?
Can you feel the difference?

5.8 ... Really?!?
Jeep claimed 6.8 seconds for the Hemi 4x4 in 2005 when they first came out.
Never timed a run myself. That said, there will be variation between people's times due to weather, gas quality (not just octane), elevation, wind speed & direction,etc.
5.8 in a non-SRT Jeep is very fast. Congrats

Generally vehicles get faster after they are broken in anyways. I was reading an old Motortrend mag(or maybe Car and Driver) at the shop and it had 0-60 times of a bunch of different vehicles when new and then after several thousand miles on them. Most if not all had considerable gains, especially the ones with V8's. I wonder if it is mostly because of the torque converter break in. Thoughts on this anyone?

i think most of the break in actually comes from the fit between the piston rings and cylinder wall. when new, the cylinder walls have a honed surface which is pretty good but over time your piston ring will wear into the cylinder wall to make a better fit.
