Ordered a Jeep Grand Cherokee L Summit Hemi Thanksgiving week. It took 6 full months, but it finally got here. Luckily it was built with every option I requested.I have to say, so far it greatly exceeds my expectations. Super luxurious, comfortable, quiet, powerful. I love the massaging seats, and the night vision is pretty cool.This will be my 3rd string tow vehicle for my 7000 pound boat, and a primary tow vehicle for my boat. But mainly, as most "tow vehicles" here, it will be a daily driver. And a very nice one at that.

Jeep has really stepped up their game, and appearance too!! That is a great looking vehicle? Congrats!!Jerry

I found the night vision on my Cadillac XT6 cool as well. Interesting to see the electric transformers that were hot, the basements of houses in the winter that were losing lots of heat, the glow of the hay wagon tires as you follow behind in the dark, and the occasional deer. Six months may be the current new standard. Daughters boy friends have been on contract electrical work at the plant.

I'm not up on the new Jeeps. Does it have a full frame under it? Or is it unibody? Very nice BTW. Congrats man.

I had to do a double take as I thought it was some type of convertible at first. The other one is a Durango HellCat. That one is FAST!!!!!!! He also has a Charger that is modded to 1,000hp and will be an under 10 second car. Next he has a T REX. Cabinet sales are VERY good!

My Son's friend just added this to his MOPAR collection.

Not feeling this one with the white B, C and D pillars and a black roof. Makes those pillars look like they're not attached to anything.

Yes the GJC L is a stretched GC. Similar size as a Durango (Not sure if they share platforms or not)
The Grand Waggoneer is a full size suv.

The Grand Wagoneer is north of $100k...

So the Grand Cherokee is smaller than the Wagoneer? Hard to tell from the pics. Makes sense, no need for 2 battlewagons...

The Trail Hawk and the Overland are still “trail rated”. Other than snow and an occasional forest service road, this will be a pavement queen. It drives much better without the off road options.
