Roadfly.com - 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee Road Test & Review

[@PeterGregg]

Ross is awesome and non-nonsense. I appreciate his reviews above all. I usually can't wait to see his review of a car I like.

[@Cleaning_Hero]

I didn’t buy mine to take it off road. I bought it for its styling, it’s nimble turning radius, smooth ride, driver space, and it sits really high.

[@xxstargatemanxx]

I always get so excited when seeing this vehicle, then I crash into a pit of despair when I realize...I'm broke

[@Barobran92]

I can't believe how much I love this, Jeep's are not usually my taste, but Chrysler has improved soooo much!

[@lwh26]

Ross does a good job here. Good rhythm in information delivery.

[@ewv22]

I find Ross more informative and less distracting

[@Bismarckisawesome]

Jeep Grand Cherokee is one badass car and I want one.

[@TheUltramarine55]

jeep is the king of 4x4

[@SirAlessio]

Italian Style....non ci batte nessuno, ora è una gran bella jeep!!

[@berker4700]

Queensryche - Eyes of a stranger on the mp3 player, way to go Ross,my man! ^^

[@HaloHamstur]

I love the way it looks now

[@Stumperx]

Very nice changes here.

[@venom5809]

Good review. Very nice truck, my neighbor just got his last week and I like it. I think it is pathetic that you can get a panoramic roof on a $40,000 Jeep, but you can't get it on a $90,000 Range Rover or $80,000 Escalade.

[@cinnabar76]

Nice and clear review about the new 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland, I love the new design except the type of wheels shown in this model don't belong with the Overland version. Just an observation. =)

[@knhl1808]

I absolutely love this SUV! And I like that pea coat he is wearing! And yea it seems as if he is a smaller guy.

[@happysplinters]

cant wait to get my hands on one, hopefully in the next 24 months!

[@brihamlin1]

nicely done, very good review. i love this new grand cherokee!

[@Mik5OO]

It's been a while!

[@majabubloem]

i find this car pretty attractive, in terms of price in relation to the package in any guise(limited or overland). i know comparing this to a Cayenne will be not reasonable. but which one will you recommand of the two? v8's hemi or Cayenne S? i am so hurt when i see how cheap this car is compare to the Cayenne S....

[@kastro81]

Good review!! Informative and to the point!!

[@timmy23apsb]

@majabubloem it depends how long you want to keep your car. if you are looking to keep your car for over 5 years, i would recommend going with the jeep. maintenance, insurance, etc. is much cheaper over the long run. Porsche maintenance/repairs are pretty stiff especially when your car is out of warranty. But it also depends on what your personal preferences are and what you want out of the vehicle, as the two are quite different.

[@jSwag47]

@IITHEViPeRII welcome to America, the land of choice.

[@snickerdoodle24]

Which is better? 2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland Summit v6 or a 2012 Land Rover Evoque. Looking at buying one of the 2 in the near future. The Land Rover Evoque prestige model (almost $58,000) I built online is about $10,000 more than the Jeep I built. Leaning toward the Jeep. $10,000 is quite a bit plus the Jeep has a better warranty!

[@LoveTheCity123]

I would seriously kill to get a review on the BMW 3 Series :) !!!

[@Forgoten214]

I agree, nothing wrong with Ross but I prefer Jessi. Her reviews flow so well and I like her attitude she's also pretty to look at. No offense Ross. lol Great review none the less. I'd get one of these in a Diesel maybe. I do like they are made in the USA or so they claim. Is there going to be a SRT version or some sort of high performance edition as well to keep up with European counterparts.

[@flatblackstrat]

@RinKami Yeah I agree. His statement itself is totally incorrect as well. Most people never buy the Grand Cherokee for it's off-road capability. The most off-roading 95% of Cherokees will see is a dirt road in the suburbs. They buy it for its styling and 4 wheel drive. When you're from Michigan like me and you grew up 10 minutes from the Chrysler tech building you see tons of these things doing nothing more than moving a soccer moms ass to the mall. None the less this car is freakin sweet.

[@amessad]

Nice review ...

[@countach27]

I like Ross' reviews nice, but please don't get rid of Jessi!

[@honkytonk2010]

great review,thanks for sharing.

[@viggoM35]

@Bryanpowman Not trying to be an ass, but isn't it an I6 or L6 (straight) not a V6? Still pretty impressive numbers coming form a 3.6 @ 290 HP 280 ft lb trq where as my 95 GC Limited 5.2 V8 @ 225 HP @ 300 ft lbs trq. MPG isn't too bad though I may avg 15 mpg between hwy/city.

[@markchambers8641]

I want to buy an 2011 base model but don’t know what to look for before purchasing

[@ssupra96]

Will you be comparing this to the 2011 Ford Explorer? If you've already reviewed it, I couldn't find it.

[@vargusalex]

Since Fiat got involved with Chrysler the quality of their cars has really improved. Mostly the interior of the vehicles, for example the Jeep Wrangler's interior has vastly improved. But they still ahve a long way to go as does GM. In my opinion American made cars dont really compare to the other import car makers; Toyota, Honda, etc. Not only in quality but also in looks. Ford is the only american car company that is making great quality cars and is well managed.

[@YeuLaKho]

good review...

[@carquestions]

Too bad Chrysler forgot to put in a battery light or voltage gauge - if your battery dies you'll never know - I guess the reviewer up top missed that little fact when he tested the car and all it's features. - see the full story at carquestions channel

[@ohiost8freak]

@cchderrick its actually a lot bigger than you would think

[@violincejack]

great great review

[@jeremysautomobile]

He said that the towing is 7,200 with the Pentastar, but it's 5000 with the Pentastar and 7400 with the Hemi.

[@nygel8455]

6200 with the pentastar 7200 for the hemi 7200 for the diesel

[@danielpark94]

haven't you guys already do a review on this car?

[@flywm]

I don't think you would want to plug in "household appliances" in the 115v outlet. Making toast on your way to work, may be a bad thing, but a laptop... okay.

[@kaleidoscopeon]

Thats a great car but im worried about the long term reliability.

[@bamaboy1763]

Would you recomend this for a first car?

[@dragonman4994]

buying a black overland today :D

[@DearMajesty]

i'm almost certain that the pentastar 3.6 v6 has 260 ft-lb. torque not 280!!

[@AtCatherby]

looks like the x3's tail lights

[@mohseen7]

impressive SUV, but there are couple of competitors ,Actually cheaper than the Overland Model.

[@lgreen5]

Have you tested the MB SUV vs the BMW?

[@flatblackstrat]

@lildude8210 ...... Because he is Michael J Fox size, and the Jeep is Biff.

[@TJC450]

@datpimpinboy They are the same. The durango is a little better and I think it looks more classy too.

[@bottomlayer]

A diesel engine would be nice, and larger windows too

[@lildude8210]

Bring Back Jessi Bring Back Jessi

[@norbertomb]

@stuttiokilljoy96 yeah, that'ss why no offroaders use Jeep Wranglers and they all use Range Rover sports...

[@thedefinitive6296]

I got to drive a base model with RWD and I even thought that was impressive for what it was. I must become rich so I can afford the SRT8 version haha

[@5Qu1Z33r]

Wasn't it posted two weeks ago already?

[@G3n3ralN0ns3ns3]

@shaneproductions I'm not hating on Ross. I know that not only pretty women can just be eye candy, but Jessi did know things and valid opinions on cars. Besides, I can't help that I like pretty women. =D

[@knganth3m]

=( I "Dislike" the new styling of the Cherokee, & is it tru that "Kia" had a hand in designing the body or just the engine? or at all?... and Great review ^_^ I love road fly tv

[@Japplesnap]

Did he just say "aplomb"? LOL

[@sethn8021]

Jon4lakers was watching this.

[@MIA7Xthies]

@snickerdoodle24 go with the jeep. More reliable. While the evoque looks awesome, the jeep is a way better deal

[@jstnhnh]

As good as Jessi is, it's about the cars, not her.

[@Aaroncmrust]

wait is that a sub in the trunk? what trim level do you need for that??

[@Barobran92]

People are buying a Grand Cherokee for off road capability!? That's funny, I would say that 90% of these never leave the road, there for road trips and grocery getters.

[@nygel8455]

Barobran92 GO FYOURAELF

[@fabiomarine]

Ross is good. But I can't forget Jessy... =´(

[@IITHEViPeRII]

@Bryanpowman im not from america thats way i dont noo how to writte god but in my country even the limitd have to be a hemi

[@mitsubishigalant]

2nd one???

[@whiteandnerdytuba]

looks massive compared to him !

[@Kevbox2008]

@cchderrick Yeah...Ross is a little guy.

[@bb996]

Look its WEE MAN!!!!

[@Forgoten214]

Diesel?

[@718hudson]

This dude hasn't tested any luxury jeeps if he's amazed by the glass sunroof..

[@versace_mel]

Wtf are you talking about? You sound stupid

[@xboxisbetta]

I would say 90% of jeeps don't go off road. So that's not true to say you buy a jeep for off road. You buy a wrangler for off road. This is too nice for off road

[@tiltheendoftim3]

@IITHEViPeRII perhaps you should use the spell check on your computer before submitting any comments. This will ensure that all the readers of the comments will understand what you are trying to communicate to the world.....

[@SmallArachnidBlogger]

This guy makes funny faces.

[@G3n3ralN0ns3ns3]

BRING JESSI BACK! D:

[@carquestions]

@pimpninja1985 !!! POSER ALERT ACTIVATED!!!!!

[@WeziBean]

@buttnut1080 you are so right!

[@GeoScum]

Didn't I see this before January 3rd?

[@lildude8210]

Why does he look so tiny next to all cars??

[@cchderrick]

is he really small or the car is really big

[@RK1FX]

I love these cars but Im afraid of their reliability issues, its a shame because they are a bargin!

[@TheUltramarine55]

is he small or the jeep huge...

[@SonyBoy365]

you mean a bit more 2011

[@91svtcobra]

subtract about 20 ft/lb torque and only 2000 lbs from towing capacity and the facts in this video will be straight lol

[@normalais]

@kingalias He does great reviews

[@norbertomb]

@stuttiokilljoy96 Really? I mean really? Do you work at land rover or something? Your passion for the brand is clearly blinding you

[@nicholaspjorgensen]

We definitely don't use ours to go off roading.......

[@peruface]

WFT Bring Back Jessi what are you doing..

[@Chrispisz12]

That looks like a girk coat

[@MadTrucker88]

@JasnoGT lol.. funny guy... American cars will always be junk... and only why its getting closer to toyota/honda is cause those guys dont care anymore.. which is sad.. but i have to admit this Jeep is pretty damn impressive

[@kingalias]

Ross has the personality of a vegetable....

[@carquestions]

!!! POSER ALERT ACTIVATED !!!!!

[@IITHEViPeRII]

@MercedesBenzFan7 all writte what i want idont give a shit for what u think عربي امريكي مال أومك دخل وواضح أنك سعودي كأني شفت في منتدى السيارات

[@JasnoGT]

@MacedonianSoldier Yes, and Macedonia makes superior engines for sure! That new Volshtaia 1.3 litre Goat Urine powered Engine you guys just produced makes a whopping 56 horsepower (unless its humid outside of course). Haha! Face it Macedonia is insignificent...No one has ever even heard of your country . Oh and by the way if you havent heard yet... American cars are now kicking everyones asses. Especially FORD and CHEVY. They are beginning to rate higher in quality than Honda/Toyota junk!

[@IITHEViPeRII]

ross is so rong about everything he have the limited te overland have a specil things like v8 hemi unuck leather and wood and 20 inch chrome wells and the 5 settings in every model!!

[@jwatwater]

whn Jessi comes bck, her and Ross shuld review the cars together. to get a mans opinion and a womans.

[@flatblackstrat]

@RinKami Hahaha right. I guess that's why so many dumb people have smart phones these days as well, everybody is trying to compensate for something.

[@direct81v]

@stuttiokilljoy96 jeep copying land rover? Get a life dude if any copying was done it was by bmw when they owned the company so the could perfect the x5.What jeep did here is listen to what jeep owners wanted in there suv. this is the end product.I own one of the best suv's on the planet the defender 90 and it's awesome. range rover sport can't touch it. this jeep however is the best so far in the grand cherokee line. And for the record get the hemi it's the best part of this car.

[@remustintoi]

who buys a grand cherokee for off roading??? really

[@madarx88]

where´s the girl?

[@ca4129]

queensryche :)
