No contest, really. Back in January I entertained a Grand Cherokee, T4R, and a LR4. The GX was a clear winner for me and cheaper than what else was available with comparable year/mileage. Actually, I'm not sure about the Grand Cherokee price. Other factors steered me away from that.Well said and I agree. Heck man, I really wanted a Jeep Wrangler Rubicon. My best friend whom passed away a few years ago was a Jeep guy. Unfortunately I don't have the bankroll required not only for up front cost but major repairs along the way.
My 94 Silverado was pretty reliable and my current Sierra the same. But not even comparable to our Lexus's. I am really put off on the current selection of domestic choices.
As it is right now I can only wish that the GX, Sequoia, and 4Runner will come down in price as the gas prices get up to the 10.00 per gallon mark. Kind of off topic but how about that 4Runner? Not only hard to find but the pricing is outrageous for what you get compared to a GX. The DM's on those blow my mind. But the motoring public likes them and are willing to pay 10K or more over MSRP and what the bank values them. The GX is looking a lot more attractive when you compare the two.
I also like that my 7 year old GX likely just dropped kids off at school. Who knows what a TRD Pro has been through in 7 years?
