Drive all the SUV's-really take the time to go to the dealerships and see for yourself
Detailed review:
This SUV is a hoot to drive. It is the 5th jeep/suv I have owned. It may not be perfect, but it is close. I drove the imports-wouldn't have any of them. Liked the Durango but it's a little big for narrow mountain dirt roads. Taho was very nice but the 5.7 Cherokee is just too good. Gas milege? Well, it's a matter of horse power and torque-a less powerful engine has to work much harder using the same or more gas to produce the same results. Superior gas mileage of 'imports' is propganda that fails in real driving.
I get at least 3-4 miles per gallon better than even the EPA estimates in all my cars. Driving is an art not bestowed by a Driver's Education certificate.
