The 2020 Hennessey MAXIMUS 1000 includes:

* New 2020 Jeep Gladiator Truck

Production will begin in July and build time for each vehicle will be approximately four months. The company plans to build two units per month.
I'm hoping SRT stuffs a Hellcat into the RAM, but this is a step in the right direction. :o

Sealy, Texas (October 30, 2019) — Hennessey Performance Engineering (HPE) has created the ultimate Jeep Gladiator: MAXIMUS. The Texas tuning powerhouse has taken the new Jeep Gladiator truck and installed the 6.2L supercharged V8 Hellcat engine and turned the power up to 11. Hennessey will unveil the company’s first production MAXIMUS, powered by PENNZOIL, on Wednesday, November 6, 2019 at the 2019 SEMA Show in Las Vegas at the Shell “Pioneering Performance” Experience (booth #60003).

“We wanted to create the ultimate Jeep Gladiator,” said company founder and chief horsepower evangelist, John Hennessey. “MAXIMUS 1000 – the name says exactly what it is: Badassery on 4-wheels. We are excited to unveil our first production MAXIMUS with the Shell Pennzoil team at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas.”

2020 Hennessey MAXIMUS 1000 Specifications:

* New 2020 Jeep Gladiator Truck
* 6.2L Supercharged Hellcat V8 Engine
* 8-speed Automatic Transmission
* HPE1000 Engine upgrade with 1000 HP & 933 lb-ft of Torque
* 0-60 mph: 3.9 seconds
* ECU, Wiring Harnesses, Radiator, Fuel System
* Stainless Steel Exhaust System
* MAXIMUS Front & Rear Bumpers with LED Lights
* Heavy-duty Off-Road Axles
* Dana 60 Front & Rear Differentials (4.88 gear ratio)
* Heavy-duty Front & Rear Driveshafts
* Hennessey Aluminum Wheels with 8-Lug Bolt Pattern
* KING Off-Road Suspension System with 6-inch lift
* BFG Off-Road Tires
* Drop-down running boards
* Upgraded Leather Interior with Hennessey & MAXIMUS Embroidered Seats
* HENNESSEY & MAXIMUS exterior branding
* Limited edition 1 of 24 serial numbered interior and engine bay plaques
* 3 Year / 36,000 Mile Warranty

Production is very exclusive and limited to just 24 units. The complete cost for the MAXIMUS 1000 is $225,000 US Dollars, which includes a new 2020 Jeep Gladiator truck. MAXIMUS can be ordered directly from Hennessey or through authorized Jeep dealers throughout the USA.

“Our clients want exclusive, extreme vehicles that deliver a fun and an exciting driving experience both on and off-road,” said Hennessey. “Our MAXIMUS JEEP with 1000 HP is pure ridiculousness on 4-wheels. What other vehicle can climb to the top of Aspen Mountain with a KTM dirt bike in the back in the morning and then run 0-60 mph in 3.9 seconds at the dragstrip later the same day?”
Just slightly out of my budget, but this would be a bad butt weekend toy!
