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 |
