Re: NWR: pls help me settle a disagreement

any more info than that? new? used? 4 WD? leather? V6 or V8? any other options? big difference from the base model to a suped up V8...

Re: NWR: pls help me settle a disagreement

new, V6, with basics no extras. I think they're all 4WD...

Re: NWR: pls help me settle a disagreement

No i don't

Re: NWR: pls help me settle a disagreement

both the V6 and V8 come with 2WD or 4WD...thanks for the info though...i'll cast my vote-sorry to be such a pain!!!!!! and my answer is no for a basic V6 with cloth seat etc. also depends on income and stuff but that's too personal....

Re: NWR: pls help me settle a disagreement

no--you're right, it does make a difference. We'd go with the 4WD
thanks for voting!

Re: NWR: pls help me settle a disagreement

I don't think it's extravagant.

Well the v8 Limited is in the range of $40,000.00 so to me that is a decent priced truck.

Not at all! We have a Grand Cherokee, and it's not a luxury SUV at all... Now the Range Rover I want.. totally different story. Thats extravogant, hence the reason why i will never own one! lol ... a girl can dream...

Re: NWR: pls help me settle a disagreement

My first reaction was 'definitely not' but being a lawyer, I find it next to impossible to definitively answer a question like this because it depends. To Oprah Winfrey (or someone in that kind of financial situation)-of course not. But to someone who lives on a fixed income or a tight budget and is struggling to make ends meet, etc, then, well, maybe it is. It all depends on one's financial situation so I can't really answer this with the information given. Sorry for being too lawyerly.

It depends on your perception of vehicles. To me, extravagant is Ferrari, Masarati, Lamborghini..... vehicles you don't see everyday. Jeep Cherokees are like most other vehicles, a dim a dozen. They are VERY nice trucks/SUVs and Jeep is a great brand, but I don't think it's extravagant. Just a very nice ride to be able to own

I agree
I wanted one before I bought my 05 Ford Escape.

Well i think comparing it to those cars is a little out there
In comparison to the SUV's that are $$$$
like the porche, BMW, Escalade...no the Jeep Cherokee isn't ultra pricey! But i agree they are nice affordable trucks!

Re: NWR: pls help me settle a disagreement

I'm big into cars - I show and I race my truck and my FH races his cars, so I'm around high priced vehicles all the time.... so that's what I meant by my post.... To me, extravagant is the ultra pricey rare cars. Know what I mean?!

Re: NWR: pls help me settle a disagreement

Maybe this will help:

My dad just purchased a brand new one so that he had a knock-around car he could drive to work and not worry about. By the way, he really likes it.

Thanks Ladies, you have no idea how helpful this is!

Re: NWR: pls help me settle a disagreement

I feel like we aren't getting the full story....so I will say,
it depends on what you are comparing it to....for instance.....a Hyundai, then yes it is. Otherwise, there are many other cars that are more extravagant, and I would consider a Cherokee middle of the road.
