  • Gentle power of the Hemi V8 - 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    I have the Hemi version, which to my surprise (on test drive) was more fun than 350hp supercharged Z3 i own. It is just plain fun to drive. Comfort and power in what ever combination you require to suit your mood that day.

  • THE SPORTY 4.7L - 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    I really like the suspension because you dont feel the bumpy roads of Puerto Rico. Also I really like the interior because it has lots of space. It runs quickly, and I really like the brake system, it really brakes good.

  • Jeeps are great! - 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    This is my third Jeep, the first new one, and the only thing that I dont love about it is there seems to be a lot of wasted space (front panel, dashboard). It has many wonderful perks and so far its the only car that hasnt let me down!

  • A Must-SEE - 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    This SUV gives everyone an incredibly reliable SUV while still having the comfort and luxury of a car. Honestly, it feels like Im driving on a cloud, its like I dont even feel the ground under me.

  • My 1st new Jeep - 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    This is my 1st Jeep. I have been a Ford Explorer owner. I bought the Jeep because my son has a 2001 and it still looks great after 60,000 miles. I went to look at the Chevy TrailBlazers and just did not like the style or ride. The Ford Explorer unfortunately was not even on my list but probably would have be the SUV I would have purchased. With the Explorer you cant rent a trailer from U-Haul and to spend this kind of money and have that restriction did not make sense.

  • The Best Grand Cherokee ever? - 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    Jeep really knocked one out with this Grand Cherokee. Every aspect of this Jeep is notches above the model it replaces. Most impressive is the trucks ride and handling. Smoother and less body roll. Makes you believe youre driving something alot more expensive.

  • Can you say HEMI? - 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    Attracted to the sleek lines, tried the HEMI and there was no looking back. This is definitely the best SUV that I have ever driven. From Rovers to Hummers. There is no comparison to hitting the accelerator of the HEMI and being driven back in the seat! You have to drive it to believe it.

  • Is this a Jeep? - 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    Have owned a Cherokee, Wrangler, and driven the Libertys. If you took the Jeep logo off the steering wheel, I would think I was driving a higher priced SUV! Jeep has finally gotten something going here. Drove a 2004, thought it was nice, but the 2005 is a dramatic increase in ride quality, handling and performance. The 6 is nice, with decent fuel economy (better then my Wrangler was). The Laredo is a nice package, have turned many heads with it. No more cheap plastic on the bottom on the body. Jeep has added many luxury features that enhance the experience.

  • My New SUV - 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    An excellent automobile, and quite a bit better than even the 2004 which I had. It is super quiet, powerful and smooth riding. It is a quality automobile.

  • Great riding SUV - 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    By -

    First Jeep product Ive ever owned. So far, very happy with the JGC. Ride is very smooth, I have the 4.7 L v8 and has good response. Probably should have bought the HEMI but 4.7 is just fine. Best riding SUV Ive ever had and quiet too. 10000 times better riding than my old Ford Explorer.
