2011 Grand Cherokee
New York: 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee must serve two masters
Looks like a Lexus mixed with the new Hyundai suv that came out last year. I like it, but it doesn't look much like a Jeep. what do you guys think?
[edit]This was meant for the general grand cherokee section, clicked the wrong forum

Looks like a BMW to me, not a fan. The reason these companies are running into trouble is because they wont listen to their consumers. Solid front axle basic option suv.

wow....not in a good way.
looks like every other freakin SUV on the road. i work at a tire shop and we once had a honda pilot, toyota highlander and a nissan frontier all in at the same time. all were silver and they all looked the same! to many companies are all starting to make their vehicles look like eachother. i wonder what they are all thinking.

That's the official death of the grand cherokee. Thanks jeep!  They gave the grand cancer when they installed IFS and now the cancer as spread and resulted in it's immediate death. So now the wrangler is all we got left.

I had a Subaru XT with an adjustable height computer controlled air suspension. It was very cool. This Cherokee only goes up 1.5" compared to the XT at 2.5"
