Do you just buy and sell them? That sounds like more work than it's worth.
Such a beautiful SUV. I have this exact color in the 2018 high altitude trim. For some reason I think the white with black trims really shows the true beauty of this SUV better than any of the other colors, IMO. When my lease is up I might go for the summit trim this time though.😊
By far the best looking SUV out there
I bought my new 12' V6 because of the platform it shared with mercedes at the time (same platform started in 11'). I now have 94,000 miles on it and it still drives/looks like new with very little maintenance needed outside of oil changes and tires. Really solid and reliable vehicle.

This is definitely an SUV that aged amazingly. Still beautiful.

I recently brought a Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo E I'm in love woth it my dream vehicle would definitely recommend to friends
true words,,,this is how a suv should looks like
12:50 Quadra TRAC I is entry level system on lower trims. It does not have low range or front/rear LSD. Middle trims get you QT2 which is the same as QT1, but with a low range transfer case. QD2 is standard on the TrailHawk, and standard on the Summit with all engines but the base V6. QT2 works well enough with its BLD, even in situations where diagonal wheels are completely unweighted. QD2 is just a bit quicker to engage in the rear than QT2.
The black accents on the white is beautiful

I know this video is 4 years old now however, I bought my 2020 Grand Cherokee Altitude in 2020, my wife drove it once and fell in love, so much so that she traded her Toyota Rav4 for one, and she loves it, I've had 4 Wranglers, but as my folks got older and I was doing more with them and taking them around I finally decided to go to the Grand Cherokee and love it and all the features, I've made my own modifications to it such as a performance exhaust(Flow master) to give it a little growl, I wanted to stay with the Magnaflow dual but it would've cost more to modify the rear bumper, plus looking at cost I went with flow master and one guy asked if it was an SRT, I told him no but the exhaust gives it that growl.
Back in the 90's, this vehicle was a status symbol in the suburbs.
I have a 2017 JGC Limited, I love it. It is my favorite auto that I have owned to date. Great for a road trip and around the city. the V6 sounds good and the ZF transmission is fun when put in sport mode. If anything happened to this one, I'd buy another one, maybe the SRT next. I thought I'd end up with another Euro brand until I drove the Jeep.

@@qwiktips6804I have a GRAND Cherokee, not a Cherokee. The Cherokee is a Fiat 4 cylinder. The Grand Cherokee is larger and has the Pentastr V6. I only have about 30K on it, not one problem so far. The 2011 to 2020 are on the MBZ platform, same as the MBZ ML line. It is a pleasure to drive but it's a gas guzzler, I mean super thirsty. If you get one used be sure to get one with the ZF 8 speed, the prior trans had issues. The 2021 Grand Cherokee larger and is bases on the Alpha Romero platform.

I have the same 8.4" screen on my 2020 award winning RAM 1500 which leads the highly competitive truck segment in interior design and is growing rapidly in market share in a highly brand loyal market. I actually chose it over the 12" screen to get more physical knobs and less driving distraction. The 12" might have showroom/Internet Wow factor, but might be overkill and not necessarily a reason to hold out for a next gen Grand Cherokee.
Crash protection? As it's an SUV, what if any are the types of roll-over protection? Excellent informative video sir👍

I have a 2018 high altitude in white. There are 3 things that I don't like about the jeep. 1. If you have a child seat in the back, reaching the seat belt buckle is a pain. Its recessed into the seat. I am looking for a seat belt extender. 2. The trunk space is small compared to other mid size SUV's 3. I have an Iphone connected to the car's apple play. This requires a cable to run from the small storage cubby under the climate control panel. There is no run through for the cable and the storage cubby with the 2 USB ports has to remain open the whole time. The Uconnect system is a bit slow, but i understand that was improved for the 2019 year. Overall, I am very happy with the jeep. Looking forward to what the 2021 JGC will have in store.
I don’t own stock in Jeep, or own a dealership, or make any sales commissions. Lol. But I recommend the hell out of them. Mine is awesome!! Drives fantastic.

I like Grand Cherokee. I had 2018 one. Sold it because we got daughter delivered and we needed 7-seatser. Buy it was the best car i have ever had. Only Cybertruck is better :)
This model's years are from 2011 to 2022. The last ones are being produced now. You can still buy them - Laredo E, Laredo X, Laredo X Altitude, and Limited X. 0% financing for 4 years plus a discount.
I ordered the 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland loaded with drivers assistance package and the towing package with the V6 engine. Absolutely the best riding, safe, quiet, dependable, and comfortable car I have ever owned. I have ordered and driven many new cars, vans and trucks. Love the adaptatve cruise control, cross path detection, side alert, and leather ventilated and heated seats and wood steering wheel. I previously owned a well equipped GMC Yukon. Enjoyed that Yukon SUV, but only 12 to 14 mpg and didn't really need the extra interior space any longer, plus the Grand Cherokee is so much easier to park and see out the windows. When Jeep designed the 2011 jeep grand cherokee it was owned by Daimler who also owned Mercedes Benz, and feel that the Grand Cherokee may have had some of the the influence of the design team on the ML mercedes mid sized SUV. I looked at both the Mercedes that year and chose the Jeep. Now, in 2020 Mercedes has introduced the GLE SUV. It is amazing. I hope Jeep doesn't go backwards with the Fiat platform. I am looking for more autonomous self-driving features and the next level of comfort and luxury in the Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland

R L zf is a German company. Based in Germany. And as far as I know they are very good and reliable. I’d probably say the v6 GC and zf 8 speed would be more reliable than the Trackhawk with that same gearbox. Since less torque on the v6 is going through the transmission it means less stress even though it’s designed to handle 800hp in the dodge demon
Does it need towing package in order to tow a travel trailer?
New trim around the corner? Guess that means I’ll be leasing my next one until I see what they have to offer with their “new” designs.

OH man LaGrange road is brutal haha! best place to test suspension!
I have a Durango now. Thinking about a grand Cherokee next. What is the average thoughts from people
I have a 2017 GC Trailhawk and had a 2011 Summit, both with the V6. Loved the 2011 Summit and did the White Rim Road in Canyonlands in it on AT tires. The 2017 with the V6, the ZF 8 speed and 18 inch wheels is really the perfect combination. The things is great on the road and I drove the Elephant Hill Rd in it. For those who don’t know Elephant Hill is the hardest off road trail in Canyonlands. They could improve on the interior but overall what other vehicle is great on road and can do extreme off-road for $50kish?
Best-looking SUV on the market. I would not trust Stellantis' quality control, reliability, or durability, but it's a good-looking vehicle. Lease, but not buy.
what tires were on it? So is the suspension the same in the Limited No X or is the X on air?
Did you tell the listener what engine you had in this model?
I like the fact there is so much aftermarket to beef it up even more. Mine has armour front back roof and underside with some custom work also but its a beast murdered out black look just awesome. Had back window louvers custom made with black armour for rear windows. If the zombie apocalypse comes its ready. 😂😂😂
Looks like the Tristate by 88. You should test the suspension on Western or just drive around Logan Square. Lol.
Each time look like is more and more as regular SUV as others in the market and less Jeep that hard vehicle for all terrain good for towing if necessary, strong 4x4 ...just my humble opinion ! I have a 2019 Dodge Journey Crossroad AWD and a 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee limited.
Hope i could have one
nicest looking car on the road, by far

Having to go through the radio to change from vents to floor/vents is annoying. Having to go through he radio to hit max A/C is annoying. Paddle shifters can be bumped, putting it in standard shift. The cruise control and the menu buttons need to be swapped. The V6 transmission can be clunky. Other than that, there are far more pro's for owning one than there are cons. Still, I believe I prefer the Cherokee Limited over the Grand Cherokee Limited.
My 2019 HA is the same color scheme as this one.
