Edmunds thinks your torque peaks at 4k, not 3k. And the redline is 4750.
Edmunds is a bunch of retards. They said my moms 02 stratus didn't come in a 4 door SE model. (back when she still had it, They might have fixed that now)

DUDE!!! the 2008 Grand Cherokee uses a 3.7L V6!!!! that engine is nothing like the legendary AMC 242cu in. 4.0L I6!!! Believe me, I know Jeeps, the peak torque is between 3000-3200 RPM, and peak HP is at 4400rpm. The rod lengths for it are 6.125 in (155.6 mm)

Here's actual dyno testing starting at 3300RPM, These tests are not at the crank Which is why they aren't as high as they should be. As you can see, torque severely drops off after about 3800RPM. how it could peak at 4k I don't know. It's even higher near 3k.
