Should You Buy A 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit Or Wait For The 2021? | V8 HEMI MPG Run!!!

[@JeffeyBarney]

How can’t u feel the difference between a v6 and the Hemi???? Crazy talk man

[@marcanderson7478]

He said he was driving it in eco mode 😂 maybe press the button and take it out of eco mode, the difference is night and day between the 3.6 and 5.7.

[@JeffeyBarney]

@@marcanderson7478 I own a 2020 5.7 Overland and my Dad has a 2019 v-6. At any speed, the Hemi is OBVIOUSLY superior.Not even close.

[@marinesince95]

Nice video review! I have a 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit V6- same color scheme inside and out, that I’ve only put 27k miles on it to date here in January 2024. It looks almost identical to this 2020 give or take a few upgrades in the 2020. But other than that, you’d never know this one is 5 yrs newer than mine. I’ll keep it till the wheels fall off.

[@Cleaning_Hero]

I find a significant difference in performance between the 3.6 and 5.7. I wish I had the HEMI in mine. I like how I can barely press the gas pedal and leave all the other cars behind me in the dust. I have to rev my 3.6L much higher to get the same acceleration. On the highway, especially merging, the difference is even greater. My V6 does not shove me into my seat when I floor it, but the V8 certainly does. I can’t even imagine how the SRT would feel.

[@kevinp4305]

Love my 19' Limited, but I can't wait to see the new 2021 JGC. People hate on the Jeep brand, but until you drive one you just don't know how awesome they are. Range Rover as unreliable as they are, people will always give it respect just because it is a true luxury brand. Keep up the great content!

[@JB_WhoWork]

I will most likely have another in the future and I almost bought a trackhawk instead of my Charger but couldn’t swing the bottom line. Thanks for the supper!

[@DonohoeDSc]

I own this model in a 2015 (exact same color and interior); I have 116,000miles on it and have hade zero issues. Nice over view, well done, and I look forward to more reviews.

[@JB_WhoWork]

Wow thanks for sharing this! I’ve had 3 and absolutely no issues and that’s with oil changes/tire rotation 👍🏾

[@dmacpher]

@@JB_WhoWork air suspension fails in cold weather, and the aux push start battery is on an isolated circuit when cranking(so if your main battery goes flat and then your aux you can’t jump the vehicle without disconnecting the main battery under the seat)

Thanks for sharing, sometimes you get a bad apple but hopefully the next one will be better 👍🏾

do you have the v6? i have a 2018 v6 high altitude

[@trentelswick7673]

Hello JB. I discovered your channel by accident the other night. How I missed this gem of a channel I will never know. I am very surprised you have a very low subscriber count because you offer so much good and relevant information. You appear very professional on video and you seem like a very affable man.

[@JB_WhoWork]

Thanks Trent, means a lot! I enjoy autos and discovered last year I’m not too bad at vlogging 😃 👍🏾

[@trentelswick7673]

@@JB_WhoWork Have you noticed that truck sales and heavy duty SUV sales have outpaced cars and small SUVs? I’m seeing channels with modified trucks getting more views than channels that focus on hot rod cars and ultra lux cars. My friend trucks are where it’s at!

[@Taysvlogssxx]

This is my dream car

[@greentruth89]

I agree! that body style will never get old

[@anthonypsomas1183]

Have to say there’s a lot of value in these Jeeps! Been driving Escalades for the past 14 years and didn’t need something that big. Picked up a 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee with the High Altitude trim and the 5.7 V8 two weeks ago. So far loving it even if it’s based off an old platform.

[@JB_WhoWork]

Nice! The good news is this platform is bullet proof and haven’t heard of people having major issues! Thanks for sharing 👍🏾

[@garyrielly1955]

Great video on the Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit 5.7 HEMI. I wish we got the Summit with the 5.7 HEMI down here in Australia, but we only get the 3.0 Turbo Diesel in the Summit. I would like to point out that there is NO WAY I would run my Summit (if I owned one) through a car wash as I would rather wash it by hand, and then chamois it down myself. There has been many stories about car wash machines causing damage to vehicles in one form or another. I am 66 with Rheumatoid Arthritis and I still prefer to wash my car by hand regardless.

[@gnevala]

V8 all day long! V6 sounds like a broken hairdryer....

[@JB_WhoWork]

Lol! It’s not that bad...

[@gnevala]

JB Reviews have you herd the turbocharged v6 ecoboost ?

[@gnevala]

They sound just like a broken hairdryer!

[@JB_WhoWork]

Yes but unfortunately it’s not yet available in JGC though... I would choose it over the 5.7 for sure

[@La-yt1wr]

Depending of which FCA model you drive with the V6 it sounds light to very throaty and so far the last generation Chrysler 200 and Jeep Cherokee sounds great with the V6.

[@GuyOnYouTube]

You get the summit for the Dakota brown interior, then get the platinum package to delete a lot of chrome and replace with body colored materials.

[@jrod2500]

I paid extra for the hemi just so I could avoid disabling the stop feature every time I get in. Hahahahaha

[@JB_WhoWork]

😂😂😂, that doesn’t sound like a bad decision. One time my JGC completely shut off at a stoplight which is why I don’t like the system either

[@Louis-SRT6.4L]

I have a 2018 3.0 litre V6 turbo diesel Summit from new. Awesome vehicle. Great value for money compared to other other luxury SUVs here in the UK. The spec is really high. Love the air suspension, the active noise cancellation system, the double glazed windows, the 825 watts 19 speaker Harman Kardon sound system with subwoofer. A lot of spec for your money. A great driving experience with every push button start. So glad the right hand drive Grand Cherokee have been imported to the UK for some time now. A great American icon holding its own in England.

[@mrdlewis22]

On the fence with the exact same one. Also in the UK. Have an A6 3.0 v6 Diesel at the moment. The only thing holding me back is MPG hit. What type of economy are you seeing? It will be my daily driver

[@zolutional]

Ive had a 5.7L high altitude and now I have a 5.7L summit basically the same just wit the indgo grey interior the the difference is night and day. The summit is smoother the sound system is better I think the interior is more comfortable. The high altitude looks like the limited x and I don’t like that since it’s basically a base model wit an appearance package. If spend 60-70k I wanna look different I also have the platinum package so I get the better styling wheels so honestly I’m 100% sure u should step up with the summit!! U can always wrap the things u don’t like chrome to black. There was also a black out package for the summit it was called the black optics package but it got discontinued in 2017

[@AllIAm1]

Just got a summit 2018 used with the v8 hemi I’m in love. Same color way

[@JB_WhoWork]

Nice and congrats!!!

[@BamaTidefan1967]

Why do nearly ALL CDJR dealers still tack a bunch of add-ons to their vehicles(Paint protection, forever warranty, etc)when hardly any other dealers that sell other makes quit doing this years ago? I look at Grand Cherokees online and they advertise a bunch of discounts that many people won't qualify for and they don't say anything about that $2500 worth of BS that's tacked onto the side of the window sticker when you look at them on the lot. Maybe a Jeep salesman will chime in as I would love to know!

[@stevieblunts]

This is my dream car as well..

[@danah.320]

Excellent review of the Summit!

[@JB_WhoWork]

Thanks 👍🏾😀

[@joeyoung3319]

TWO AD INTERRUPTIONS in the first 2 minutes????

[@Cleaning_Hero]

I think the acceleration feels like the V6 when it’s kicked down in V4 mode. But when all 8 cyl are active, it’s much more noticeable.

[@Carenthusiastsjohn]

I have a 2018 Summit with the full body colored no Chrome with the five seven and the DVD system and TVs

🔥🔥🔥

[@jonathanvanelli]

High Altitude V6 here, I love it but I can't wait for the Bronco.

[@JB_WhoWork]

Nice! The Bronco name is gonna be a hit for sure, thanks for sharing 👍🏾

[@trentelswick7673]

Put a 5.9 with compound turbos in that Bronco. 😂

[@3Hunned786]

Great video my man. I'm actually looking at a Limited X because I am not into the chrome. Chrysler has dropped the lease and purchase price somewhat, probably because people are waiting for the new one to pop; but I'm with you. I'd rather wait until they get the bugs out. Get a 3 year lease and then bounce into the new one.

[@JB_WhoWork]

Thanks Eddy! This is still a relevant SUV and has enough tech to keep you happy for at least another 3 years 👍🏾

[@jamesrobinson2017]

I have a 2003 JGC Limited with the 4.0 inline 6, love it. Summit over Rover and X5 all day

[@JB_WhoWork]

That’s awesome! The 4.0 was pretty stout too! Thanks for sharing👍🏾

[@bruhkisg6662]

Thank you for the review...I am in the market for a smaller suv for my wife. I drive a ram Laramie and want something like this. I appreciate your channel. You are very thoughtful and I like your criticism....my wife and I would like to RV in the future. Any thoughts about reviewing RVs in the future?

No problem! I have a few fifth wheels already reviewed but my wife and I are planning within a couple of weeks to tackle some travel trailers so stay tuned 👍🏾

Good day!! You have very hardy and reliable SUVs for traveling in Russia in our difficult climatic conditions We have two jeep grand cherokee wk2 first overland 2013 of release engine 3.6 mileage at the moment 500,000 miles! Only scheduled maintenance from major breakdowns of the automatic transmission and that's it. I would like to note a very hardy chassis and generally high off-road durability!

[@rsgerman4061]

Have never been a fan of Chrysler products but after buying one for my wife this vehicle is exceptional and very satisfying to drive.

[@DavidBrown-jt7yi]

I have a 2018 High Altitude with the 3.6. Love the vehicle. Got mine down at a volume dealer in the very low 40's. Sticker was 53k. Its been a great ride.

[@JB_WhoWork]

That’s a really good deal! Typically the High Altitudes are low on supply and because of that, dealers tend to take advantage of it.

[@theometzger2348]

What dealership did you get it at?

[@jefferybaxter1225]

Even though a redesign for a next generation is well, well over due, Jeep some how some way found a way for this 4th generation Grand Cherokee to be competitive. Since 2011 until now the Jeep Grand Cherokee I think got either one or two refresh designs. With that they still did well in overall sales. Each year that came by it's a little more than the previous year. I'm on agreeable terms with you that as for the Summit trim level there was a little too much chrome. It was a little overdone. Generally speaking automakers use chrome panels as an indication to highlight that a particular trim level has some good features. That's true for the Jeep Grand Cherokee in the Summit trim, but the chrome could've been toned down though. Just in three or four key areas of the exterior and that's it. That's how Jeep did the chrome exterior panels for my 3rd generation (2005-2010) Jeep Grand Cherokee. The chrome wasn't overly done for mine at the time. Hopefully with the upcoming new generation 5th generation Jeep Grand Cherokee, Jeep will not over do it with the chrome. This coming year in 2021 Jeep will release the new generation Jeep Grand Cherokee as the 2022 model year. I think in either May or June it'll be unveiled at a Conference. Then, maybe two or three months later it'll be available at showrooms for purchase. This coming year 2021 will be big for Jeep. The new generation 5th generation Jeep Grand Cherokee will get released and also their full size line SUVs the Wagoneer/Grand Wagoneer. Should be GRRREAT!!

[@philo5096]

Dont lease dude, its foolish.

I love Jeep I currently have the compass grand Cherokee is my next one

[@DJWOLFLIVE]

I didn’t get the grand Cherokee but Friday night I traded in my dodge for a 2020 Cherokee Limited 4x4 with all the options. It’s a really nice suv and I didn’t realize that ther are 8 different types of Cherokees let alone grand Cherokees

[@JB_WhoWork]

Congrats!!!

[@richarddobreny6664]

that was a great review, i just bought a Summit, got a deal i couldn’t refuse. it was the ride quality that got me, i got the 3.6

[@JB_WhoWork]

[@Christinerb1218]

Thank you for this video! I have looked all over KZbin for a Summit/Overland comparison... this helped a lot

[@thomasgibson2392]

Turn “Sport” mode on… HUGE difference in performance from the V6!

[@thomasgibson2392]

You can also opt out of so much chrome in the Summit. Most of my trip, side mirrors, dirt handles etc.. are all the same paint as the body.

[@walter777smith6]

WTF we have to pay for destination???? That's a dealer's experience. I disagree how can you compare that to a Range Rover ?🤣🤣🤣

[@JB_WhoWork]

They try to pass everything on to the customer, you just have to talk them down lol! Well if you think about the price point and the overall design, it compares very well especially with it having air suspension and if you look at the Range Rover Sport SVR, you can compare it to the SRT or Trackhawk

[@mrike5651]

I want the 2022 grand Cherokee Itali style

[@mediumrarepotato7385]

D These should only be hand washed

can imagine if they put the 12 inch screen will look dope i own a summit

Nice Jeep Cherokee. I'm with you about the chrome and going for the 3.6L engine. With the power in smaller engines you don't need a V-8 in most vehicles now days. Thanks for review and video JB. 👍

[@JB_WhoWork]

Most people who need to tow a big trailer can buy a really nice RAM that has as nice of interior. The 4Runner V6 was a dog and I did miss the power from the V8 in the previous gen. Thanks for sharing Ric!
