bought this car because I needed a good car for the snow. Frankly, I should have simply bought an audi. The build quality was terrible, handles like a mack truck, bad gas mileage - overall not much good to say about it. Over the 3 years that I bought it, the air conditioner went, an axle bearing went as well as numerous other annoying problems. While not a huge investment, I think I bought it for $28k or so, it just was not the right car for the situation. Frankly the next car I bought - an audi s4 had far more to offer (better handling in the snow, better gas mileage, far better reliability and generally just a hoot to drive. So, unless you really need an suv (in which case I'd recommend a toyota 4runner) get an All wheel drive audi - far more fun....

This Jeep has been a very reliable vehicle. I have always liked the look of these Jeeps. Nothing fancy but looks like it could handle anything in it's path. There are some noises while driving but thats too be expected in a SUV. Acceleration is gradual but feels powerful. Solid Braking. I feel Safe putting my family in this vehicle and driving almost anywhere.

What is bad about it? i have nothing bad to say about it. I love it and i wouldnt trade it for anything. It is paid for and is mine. Its a jeep thing you wouldnt understand. Jeeps are the way to go.

My new Grand Cherokee Laredo is grand. It has the 242 cubic inch Chrysler high-performance straight-6 engine, which puts out 200HP and 300 foot pounds of torque at 3000RPMs. It gets decent gas mileage for an SUV due to this engine and has some power behind it. It is dark green with a silver trim and a dark tan interior. It rides on Goodyear Wrangler All-Terrain tires and will be getting a new Gibson Grand Cherokee exhaust system, since the old one was falling out.

Great vehicle. What else can I say other than it's a Jeep! The 4.0L is a great motor. The thing has been a dream. I love taking it off road and beating it in the mud, then driving it around town.
