And New cars.com says..."The Toyota Sienna has less seating than the Honda Odyssey, making the Honda Odyssey the better choice, if you need to chauffeur many passengers. You'll be able to fit about the same amount of groceries in the Toyota Sienna as you will in the Honda Odyssey." But the Odyssey does NOT come in AWD! The Highlander is a great value. NOT overly rugged though. |

I bought a v8 2001 Grand Cherokee with 104,000 miles in 2004 and got about 2 yrs out of it before I gave up on it. In the end there were transmission problems that cost a bunch to fix and then after spending about $1500 trying to get the cooling system to work in the summer heat of Nevada without success, I sold it.
I'm not a mechanic so it was not a good car for me to own as I had to pay others way too much to work on it, and the cooling issue was a big worrying point since you don't want to overheat or get stuck in the middle of the Nevada desert. If you know what you're doing it's probably not too bad. I loved the car itself and it was the best 4wd vehicle I've ever driven. Just too unreliable and expensive to own for me. Got about 22 mpg on the highway and around 18 mpg in town. I consider that pretty good for a v8 SUV. |

Save your money, there'll be a DHS light-armored SUV in you neighborhood just for you before you know it.

I have a 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland that currently has 106K on the engine and still runs as good as the day it was new. Good call IMO to get one.

Do not buy a 99 unless you have 1600 for drilled and ported rotors. I had one and they had issues with rotor warping. Loved it other than that

Oh, one thing I forgot to mention earlier, and my apologies... Do NOT buy a 1999-2000 Grand Cherokee. Those, especially the 99, had a shitload of electrical issues. 2002-2004 were the best, especially the latter. My experience with mine pretty much proves that. |

I dealt with a 99 and 02. Both were heaps of ****all. Definitely not Road Warrior worthy.
