  • All Time Favorite Mid-Size SUV - 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    The best mid-size SUV hands down. Ive put a lot of miles on a 2014 Grand Cherokee and the 2016 is much improved. The power steering doesnt make that whirring noise (yet!), the shifter is SO much better than the previous electronic version, its buttery smooth now. My only criticisms of the Grand Cherokee so far: The auto start/stop is not for everyone, there should be a way to disable it by default and not have to press the button on each start up. Its actually kind of safety hazard, I find myself making more rolling "California" stops so that I can avoid it from turning the engine off. No Apple CarPlay support, would love to see this supported on all Uconnect versions. They got rid of the dual exhaust, not a big deal but might be for some. They moved the backseat hand handles from the top roof to the front sides, not sure this was a great move seeing as the Grand Cherokee is more of a luxury SUV than off-road where you might need the forward handles.

  • Diesel - - 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee

    LOVE THE DIESEL. If you have ever driven a modern diesel you know what I am talking about. I purchased a 2016 Limited EcoDiesel in August and love it. Note that only the diesel comes with a factory 5yr 100,000 mile power train warranty. Gas models are less. Also not the engine does not shut down at traffic lights... Just know that maintenance costs are more ( i knew this going into the deal). Drove to the beach and got just over 32 mpgs.

  • Great SUV - Not liking the Stop/Start function - 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    I recently leased two Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredos, one 2015 that I loved so much that I also leased a 2016 to replace our second car. I had leather seats placed in both which are much more comfortable than the cloth seats. Both the 2015 and 2016 are identical with the exception of the gear shift and the stop/start functionality, and back up camera on the 2016 model. I previously owned at 2000 Grand Cherokee and was pleased to see that these models are larger, steadier and roomier than the one I had before. The ride is very smooth. Cant say enough about how happy I am with this vehicle. I am likely to buy this out at the end of the lease if I remain this satisfied. I gave teh Grand Cherokee an overall score of 4 based on the start/stop function. I really hate this function, especially in the stop and go traffic here in Florida. It starts as soon as I take my foot off of the brake but with that, it still takes a second for it to start and take off. Overall when running, the V6 engine has sufficient pickup for me. I also felt that the led lights should be standard on all models of Grand Cherokee at this price base.

  • This is my 4th Jeep and Im still loving them. - 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee

    The Grand Cherokee has the perfect interior design. The instrumentation is logical, well organized, and very practical. The exterior looks are rugged enough for fun, but also professional for the office. The only major complaint that I have is the start/stop function. I wish you could change it to default to off when you start the car. I also wish the rear lift gate was height adjustable. However, those are minor issues that are overshadowed by the overall design of the car.

  • My 1st Jeep 75th Edition.. move outta my way Ford! - 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    I love my JGC 75th Edition.. Its black with bronze... it is beautiful. My only complaint is the start/stop feature. I dislike it! I wish there was a way to disable it until I want it, not the other way around. If I had my druthers, I wish that LED lights came standard on this vehicle; Especially since it is a Special Edition. Love the handling, ride and get up and go of this vehicle. It is definitely a head turner.
