Nice looking Grand Cherokee :thumb2:thumb2


I don't know much about jeeps though, what engine is it?

 

[macabethiel]

Jeep Grand Cherokee - the Tractor Years have begun

Thanks for your nice comments.

It's more like the r3mR to drive than the Hyundai in that the car drives like a 20 year old vehicle designed for use by Rednecks in the USA. The steering is wooden as in a railway sleeper and the steering is not as light as the Hyundai was.

The 5 cylinder engine has a thrum all of it's own and the 0-60 time will need a calendar rather than a stopwatch. That aside it's got some good points. There is a built in Satnav obviously designed before the Postcode generation was born.

Best bit so far is I took her on a short run of 28 miles and the trip computer showed me 34.1 mpg. I am pretty sure once we get used to it we can get that down to nearer 25 mpg. lol
