I purchased the Altitude edition because of the black 20-inch wheels, great looks and all of the features I wanted. It's not overloaded but has exactly what I needed. The Grand Cherokee is one of the few SUVs remaining - not a CUV. With the V-6, I average more than 22 mpg and has plenty of power for passing and towing. Only downside is the automatic shifter. Recall isn't enough.
Enough house power, huge space for an SUV, good looking. But I got the 5.7L V8 engine, think about the noise when you decide to buy it. Really ANNOYING! MPG always stay around 13-15, refill every 200 miles. Still not good enough compares to Germany cars at this price.
The Grand Cherokee is sleek in appearance, Comfortable and roomy enough in the inside, gets 18-21 mpg with the 3.6 engine so no complaint there. Also pulls my 4000 lb boat / trailer just fine. Cargo space is ample. Only "Con" so far is slight firm ride suspension ... it's just a rough ride on potholes.
