New Grand Cherokee thoughts?

Subaru Forester. Nice full-time 4WD system that actually works full-time. Good layout (spare under the floor, not on tailgate), yet still 8" ground clearance. Even the base model comes with equipment on par with a Taco SR5. 3-year reliability as good as the RAV4 and FJ: http://www.jdpower.com/autos/ratings/dependability-ratings-by-category/compact-crossover-suv/

 

I wouldn't buy a vehicle from a factory where its known and been shown that a good part of the workers drink alcohol and smoke weed in a nearby park during lunch time just about every day. No thanks.

Blows my mind that I see more New Jeep Cherokees on the road than 4Runners or FJ Cruisers..Consumer Reports is partially to blame for that though.

 

Sammy,

I too wasn't "Feeling" the new 4Runner when i decided it was time to trade my Tacoma. I did seriously consider the Jeep but after much thought i decided on the T4R. Its been almost a month now and as each day goes by i'm lovin the 4Runner more and more!! I highly recomend the Runner if you're looking for an SUV, you won't be dissapointed!




Stay away from the honda Pilot as they've been have tranny issues

just my opinion

 

no thanks

 

ask this question...what will the 4Runner be worth in 5 years? What will the Grand Cherokee be worth in 2 years? Toyota trucks and SUV's have high resale value for a reason...they are well made. If you don't need a truck or use 4wd, why not get a car?

 

Thanks for all the replies. I'm still a few months away from pulling the plug on anything. Im going with a SUV cuz I have 2 dogs, while they're not that big just want an SUV to be able to take the dogs adn what ever gear I have for the day. If I were a single man, I would have an FJ right now.
