    This SUV handles like a car but has the heft that most people look for when they desire an SUV. It has been fun and reliable to own this Jeep Grand Cherokee for the last 2 years. The only bummer...the silver letters on the outside peel on most of these models.

    Ive owned my Jeep Grand Cherokee for going on 9 months with no problems. It has great performance, wonderfully designed interior, a terrific stereo. It is definitely a cut above the rest in its class.

    Great SUV!! I recommend it to anyone! Great value for the money! Bought it new and now have 12,000 miles on it. No problems with it at all. Ive taken it to the scheduled maintenance appointments and thats it. I bought it while the 7/100,000 was still standard which Im happy about because it gives me a piece of mind. Rides great and I get 18-19 mpg in mixed driving and about 23 mpg on the highway. I have all options except sunroof and heated seats. Looks great and the inline 6 has enough power for what I need. (I dont tow anything) I plan on keeping this car for a loooooooong time.

    I was the second owner for this vehicle and I have never regretted buying it. I had just gone through a divorce and had to travel across country. I have never had any problems with my jeep except the recall on the radiator which was fixed right away. Ive changed the tires once and have only had to change the oil and transmission fluid. Im about to sell it now at 17,000 miles and am very afraid I will not find a vehicle as reliable. I highly recommend this year for a Jeep if it is a I6!

  • Still Love it - 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee

    This is the only vehicle I have ever purchased that I like as well today as the day I took it home. It is a great all around vehicle for towing, going off-road, taking on vacation, etc. It has done everything I have ever asked it to do and I have never had to do anything other than regular maintenance. With the 4.7 V-8 I average 18+MPG on mixed driving and have gotten 22+MPG on the highway. However towing 2500lbs drops it down into the 13MPG range. I will probably purchase another one however, the Commander is also in my line of sight.

    Love this SUV. This is the 3rd one I have owned and the first Linited and fist V8. Will not go back to a 6 cyl. Rides like my Mercedes only more low end torque!. With black interior I get nothing but good comments.Real Plush looking. Have not had to take it back only for standard service. Only thing I do not like is gas millage. It is ok for a V8. It only looses 1 MPG against my wifes 6 cyl. Millage is typical with all similair SUVs.

    Its fast, fun to drive, handles great for an SUV and a joy to look at. The interior is just as nice as most luxury cars.

  • A Joy To Drive - Update! - 2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee

    I first put this under the 03 model year, but have a 02. Heres a recap: All A++++ marks for this car. I am so pleased, and have received an endless flood of compliments. It has all the features, amenities, and comfort of a luxury "SUV", for $10K less, and the REAL capability to go hardcore off- road. On a side note, I really wanted to mention that if you live in Southern California, AVIOD Glendale Star Chrylser Jeep. 90% of their staff is the epitome of the sleazy, heartless car salesman. The one guy who wasnt had only worked there for a week! Hate hate hate the dealership, love love love the car.
