2008 4dr SUV turbocharged 215hp 3.0L V6 Diesel

small, tight see full Jeep Grand Cherokee review
2007 4dr SUV 235-horsepower 4.7L V8

That and MPG are the only real faults so far after 15000 miles and 15 mons. I think our 2001 GC has more seat comfort although the 07s seats do fold over easier than the 01s. see full Jeep Grand Cherokee review
