vx vs. Grand Cherokee

Well, i've been deeper than this with no probs (just no photo's )

Saw that commercial last week. Read the fine print on the lower screen. Total disclaimer saying the vehicle should never be driven in over 12" of water. You be the judge.

I went to an jeep dealership just to test drive one last month,i like its power (290 HP) .

The new 3.6L really make the cherokee looks more appealling,but for the price i wouldn't buy it,rather take an chance with an 4Runner.

I love the new design,except the damn grill,i hate the fact that jeep keeps using the grill as an trademark.It just narrows jeep's options to design an nice front end.

personally i would never buy a new jeep unless i had absolutely NO plans of wheeling it.... they cost too much money to tear up off road....(6 or 7k vehicle i dont mind beating up... but 40k? hell no)
the only newer jeep i would own would be-
SRT-8


however, i love my 4runner and am VERY impressed by its offroad and onroad abilities (most of you saw it in moab this year )

I'm with about the SRT 8.
I was very tempted to drive off an lot with one last year,an dealer had one with 37K on the odo for just $ 22K fully loaded.

Didn't bite the bait because of the financing conditions,but i really like those jeeps.

Another con is the fact that these SRT8 has few safety recalls,especially the brembo calipers among others
