Default Test drove a 2011 Grand Cherokee yesterday...
Had to take my mom's Journey to the Dodge dealer today for it's first oil change (don't get on my a$$ for not doing it myself, it's free there).

So while I was waiting I was b/s'ng with the sales manager (a golf buddy of mine) and we ended up taking a 2011 4x4 Laredo with just the V6 in it.

I gotta admit the interior was AWESOME for a Laredo! I can only imagine how nice the Limiteds must be. Power felt quite ample too from the bottom line 6 cylinder. But the thing that impressed me the most was how high you felt in it stock. I felt higher off the ground than in my 2" lifted '02 Grand Cherokee.

All steel skid plates, a modified higher air intake system and a fully sealed, water-tight driveline! Might be Jeep is back to heading in the right direction again. Placing an emphasis on Off Road types ahead of soccer moms!!!

Did you test out the suspension? You can lift and lower it with a turn of a switch. I give two thumbs up to the 2011 Grand Cherokee.

Sounds Great; although I've really never looked at those.

It is nice to be able to test drive other models. Gives you something to think about when you get ready to change vehicles. Plus it is fun.
