my friend just got the new grand cherokee with the 4.7 v8 in it. very nice and it's getting better mileage then their old patriot with a v6, right around 20 mpg.

funny thing is one of our friends is a service manager at a dodge dealer and he said the hemi equipped models get even better mileage because of the cylinder drop they use on that engine.

he also said the grand cherokee's have one of the better service records. he's owned them for many years and never had a problem with one of them.

i think they still have lifetime drivetrain warranty also.
