Looks like a squint eyed minivan with an H3 grill. Sweet :rolly:
:sighb:
The H4 (or whatever it WAS going to be called) never gets made, but this travesty gets the green light?
Check out 2025 Mercedes G Class ...makes me feel Isuzu had the styling smarts way before anybody else.
that is the fugliest grill ive ever seen...

The fugly grill alone of the Jeep makes it a hands-down "non-buy".
:bgwb:

Hate it. Most jeep owners seem to hate it too.
I saw a petition to stop Jeep from labeling the new model as "cherokee" because XJ owners didn't their image ruined. :laughing:
I gotta agree...that's the first thing I thought when I first saw the photo.Quote:

The VX's external styling has it all over this new "Cherokee," and I'm not a big fan of the Evoque, either.
It's too bad our dashes and stacks are so early 90's. Styling-wise, it's the weakest part. I said styling, yes. No need to mention the back-seat entry/egress (tough to do without laughing), or the popperless tailgate, or the storage space... But I love my VX like few cars I've ever owned.
Speaking of - stay tuned. New horse on the way to the stable. :evil:

Jeep really does want to kill their brand!
Eeeeeeeyyyyyyuk.
New Jeep Cherokee? :)Quote:

Yep, this is the stack I'm referring to. Not sure I'd call it minor though. But I suppose it's functional enough.Quote:

I like the new Jeep. I have my vx and Cherokee and couldn't be happier, however I admit the time will come one day when I reach my goal of driving the vx to 190k and sell it to the next person to continue the love affair. To me, this looks like a spinoff of the next stepof what i might want in a car. I used to be skeptical of these newer jeeps but then I spent a lot of time in the second gen Liberty and loved it. Until then, the Gunbarrel just kicked over 120k. At this rate, it will take six to eight years before I sell it.
ugly times 100
Horrible!
That first video I am still waiting for the "offroad" part to begin. Nothing there I couldn't do in my 2 wheel drive stock Ford Ranger.Quote:

I had a 14 jeep patriot as a rental for the past 12 days. Had even thought about getting one as my replacement car until I drove it a bit. Sure pulled down on hills. Was really disappointed in Jeep because of it. Only thing good I can say was it was easier on my back injury than the VX but no way would I trade.

Check out this one, it looks just like a foxfire.
The interior looks good but I can't stand how the body looks. Someone that owns a chain of automatic car washes designed this body.
Under "woes" for the Trailhawk...
Approach/departure angle? Skid plates? Ground clearance?
Nope... Too much power, no memory seat (really?), leather upholstery limitations...

Well, I LOVE that crazy-lookin' "Jeep-from-the-future" front end so much that I checked one out over the weekend - but within 5 seconds all of my interest completely evaporated.
Line up the new Cherokee with any other small SUV and I would find it impossible to pick it out from an Escape, CRV, etc. when looking at the side or rear. Same ol' cookie-cutter. In person it is just way too minivan/station wagon - not enough off-road heck-raiser. Apparently the beauty shots I've seen over the last few months were taken from VERY low angles to make it look beefier.
I trust it's off-road capable as Jeep claims, but it just looks like a slightly lifted car in person. No thanks.
I almost crashed while driving to my job site when i saw that abomination with the "Cherokee" bagde on the doors.
I finally saw one in real life. Horrible is an understatement. The Trailhawk might look better than the one I spotted, but it would have to be a huge improvement for me to re-think getting a Wrangler.
