What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Jeep Grand Cherokee
| Price of the Jeep Grand Cherokee: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2011 | 4dr SUV 360-horsepower 5.7L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD w/low range |
Great value for as many features |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV turbocharged 215hp 3.0L V6 Diesel 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD w/low range |
Due to high gas prices, Chrysler is offering great incentives on their SUVs. I was able to purchase for almost $10,000 less then MSRP. |
| 2005 | 4dr SUV 230-horsepower 4.7L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD w/low range |
Because of horribale depreciation, I got a 2005 Jeep with low miles very cheap. |
| Price of the Jeep Grand Cherokee: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 330-horsepower 5.7L V8 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD w/low range |
The Overland is very expensive considering the 2007 warranty lasts only a year!!!!!!! Yes, BIG downer---and the aftermarket warranty has some self-serving aspects like not paying for repairs that go bad. Previous Jeeps had a great warranty. |
| 2005 | 4dr SUV 210-horsepower 3.7L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
not enough options for the price. too generic. not enough interior options style |
| 2005 | 4dr SUV 210-horsepower 3.7L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
too pricy for options included |
What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Toyota Highlander
| Price of the Toyota Highlander: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2009 | 4dr SUV 187-horsepower 2.7L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
We were able to get a new Highlander for much less money than a Honda Pilot and still get all the features we desired (larger than a Rav4/CRV, >20 MPG city, leather, and full compliment of air bags/antilock/traction control) |
| 2007 | 4dr SUV 155-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
I got it for a good price making it an easy decsision to purchase |
| Price of the Toyota Highlander: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2011 | 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Felt some options missing for $38K vehicle such as memory settings, more detailed tire monitoring |
| 2009 | 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
VW was offering a sizeable discount on the Routan, a similar Highlander was from 8 to 10K more |
| 2009 | 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
you pay for the reputation. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
More expensive then Pathfinder for same year and higher milage vehicles. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Because you had to purchase features you did not want, the vehicle was much more pricey than others with the same features. They charged a premium for basic features included with other makes of cars. |
| 2008 | 4dr SUV 270-horsepower 3.5L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Over priced because was new model at time I was looking. Configured with unwanted trim and features vs competition. |
| 2006 | 4dr SUV 208-horsepower 3.3L V6 Hybrid CVT AWD |
I paid full MSRP. |
