And finally, the new Commander, built here in Detroit

Larger than a GrandCherokee, with 3 rows of seating.

Three full-time four-wheel drive systems, Quadra-Trac IŽ, Quadra-Trac IIŽ and Quadra-Drive IIŽ
Two transfer cases offering Brake Traction Control System (BTCS), and Electronic Limited Slip Differentials (ELSD) for best-in-class tractive performance
Three available engines: the 5.7-liter HEMIŽ V-8 with the Multi-Displacement System,
the 4.7-liter SOHC Power Tech V-8, and the 3.7-liter SOHC Power Tech V-6 engine

And a SRT8 Comander is in the works, too.

So you get a $45-$50K Jeep that gets 12MPG....doesn't do much for me. Plus it doesn't look any different than the other Cherokee's on the road.

The wifes last vehicle was a Jeep Cherokee Laredo...it was ok, but I would not pay more than $30K for what you get.

At least that Commander looks a little unique.

Just another reason to keep building SUV's and let the car market fade :(
