Trigger
Strength:
It looks cool. Handles good. Comfortable.
Weakness:
It's been stolen from me twice. Even with The Club (worthless piece of crap) on my steering wheel, it's been stolen from me twice... it's my fault for buying one of the top 5 most stolen vehicles made. I don't have it anymore cuz it was stolen last night and I didn't have theft insurance - so I'm a sad panda. It's one of the easiest cars to steal as well. Plus - the radiator they put in em are cheap and go bad the first year - so if you have one made in 93, it's probably been replaced already. The transmission went out at 130k. I paid about 10k for it 3 years ago and it was a nice price for what I got. Now it's gone and I can't reclaim my loss. All I can do is cry and hope you all feel pity for me. Mine was red. I would recommend them cuz I liked having the car, but I would also recommend getting some sort of kill switch device combined with lojack and maybe that new brake lock (not the one from the brake to the steering wheel) at www.unbrakeable.com. I don't work for that company or anything, but it just looks like a good device to me. I'm giving this car the lowest value rating cuz for my 10,000 bucks I only got to drive it for 3 years and I didn't have a chance to sell it to get any of my money back. My sister has a 99 jeep grand cherokee and she loves it. I love it too. |

Strength:
Comfort, radio, leg room, road handling, seating, heaviness provides feeling of safety, suspension system
Weakness:
Gas mileage, 4 wheel drive and steering mechanical problems, cargo space inadequate. We were somewhat concerned when a $30,000 vehicle developed so many major problems with only 30,000 miles. Fortunately, work was under warranty, but, we are unsure about whether the vehicle should be kept due to possible major problems re-developing. The vehicle performed very well until problems developed, and we planned to buy another Jeep product as a second vehicle. We will have to give this careful thought now. The vehicle was treated well, and the 4 wheel drive was used only infrequently in snowy conditions. We are wondering if other people have experienced similar problems. Similar Products Used: None |

/Grand Cherokee Laredo
Strength:
Decent Ride and Handling for an SUV, 4.0L has good power and fuel mileage, Quadra Track full time 4WD is excellent on or off road. Body is sound and squeak-free at 110K miles.
Weakness:
Engine noise, transmission longevity, rear axle problems, rear seat legroom and comfort, cargo area too small Engine replaced 3 times under warranty for piston slap noise, finally cured with new engine in 1996 at 40K miles. Transmission needed replacement at 95K miles, it always shifted poorly. Get this!- both rear axles needed replacement at 90K miles since they were scored at the outboard (bearing)ends. Rear axle lubricant was clean and fully filled. Improper factory heat treatment? Similar Products Used: 1986 Jeep Cherokee 2.5L 5-speed |

Strength:
SPEED, handling, braking, front seat comfort.
Weakness:
That weirdness of having to constantly correct the steering while highway cruising, the gas mileage. I got this vehicle (94 Laredo V8) used for under $20k including an extended warranty about 3 years ago. I've never been stuck in the car, and do feel it to reliable, but it is not perfect. There have been several repairs though none at inconvenient time or without warning. |

Ran it dead, blew up the engine, rolled it, wrecked it and LOVED it. |

Strength:
Ride, engine, looks, everything! almost
Weakness:
Fuel economy, Transmission sounds, limited aftermarket upgrades due to new model year. I purchased my jeep last July, and man do I love it. I've taken it off road, to LA, to Tahoe, and this jeep is awsome. I have the limited with the 6/4.0. I choose it over the 8/4.7 because i thought i could save some gas. My jeep has enough power to pass other SUVs going up a steep incline at 7000 feet. I may make some upgrades to the engine to give it a little more power for off road use. |
