To OP; enjoy your new jeep! Dont pay no mind to the haters! If the jeep makes you happy, drive it! 'grats.

But from a longtime reader of the forums, but recently joined, I can see that the bimmer community is very nice. even with all our e53 problems, we still love 'em haha

I owned a 1998 Grand Cherokee Laredo..

3 transmissions
2 rear diffs

Both in under 60k miles. I fixed it and ditched it.

That's because they want to advertise the car on eBay but don't want to pay the commission to eBay if the car is sold thru eBay. They want the foot traffic in their showroom.

That sucks!

I spoke with Ron S. when I was checking it out at the dealer yesterday, was informed the T/As are selling for at least $20k over sticker.

I would only buy an older Jeep wrangler or cherokee (with the box body) with the 4.0 I6 those are tanks. But still congrats on the new jeep. I would have personally gotten a VW touareg with the 5.0 V10 TDI

Any update??? How does the Jeep compare to the X5??

Enquiring minds want to know if you're happy with your swap.

I've owned a Cherokee Laredo and a Grand Cherokee... I'll never buy another Jeep SUV again. I had the freeze plugs fall out of the engine on the Cherokee and the grand cherokee was in the shop more than on the road and it was purchased brand new.
