You couldn't give me another VW----worst car I ever owned (even worst than a Jeep I had).

My brother-in-law just bought a new TOP of the line Grand Cherokee Limited Extra Special Royal Presidential Model 3000 XLP (or what ever they call their most expensive one). To show you how stupid some people are he had one before and complained about it constantly. His wife has him convinced that's the only thing they can pull their boat with that she can drive.

We had an '86 XJ, and we loved it, warts and all.
But, a couple weeks ago, I got 'stuck' driving a 2003 Grand Cherokee to auction. 253k miles. I thought it would be a terrible adventure, but that thing was solid, the steering was tight, the brakes were strong and the engine was healthy.
Surprised the hell out of me.

I love the Jeep Grand Cherokee. I was thinking about buying a limited.

Unless you get the Jeep really cheap, but they usually sell for more than they are really worth.

Why you hating on them so much? My buddy has one let me drive it and the ride is very nice.

4 runner yes. Highlander no. My wife bought one brand new. Custom paint, all options etc, it was a nightmare Hated every minute we owned it. Could have bought a damn G Wagon for how much that POS cost me.....

Yea. The real old ones are where I would drop some coin as well.

Maybe you got a dud. My mom and two aunts have 1. None of them have had any problems in about 4-5 years.

It's not that it's that jeeps are known money pits.
If you keep cars 3-4 years you'll probably be ok but don't expect 7-10

Maybe, but you know how it is. If you have a horrible experience with a certain vehicle , you never ever buy it again. Regardless

Highlander was rated one of the safest SUVs.

If the Cherokee burns oil, smokes and pings, there is a relatively simple (by my standards) repair.

Oh I totally understand that.
The wifes Mazda 6 has been awesome to us. Other than wear parts the only thing we have replaced is O2 sensors and and cat converter. You could call those wear parts probably too.
