German Car Zone

Hey ....I was trying to convince my parents to get a jeep....I just wanted to get some feedback....its a diesel linited i think its pretty slick

I've never driven the new one; however I know the diesel V6 coming from Mercedes, and it is absolutely awesome. This is a diesel as silent as a petrol, powerful and super-smooth...A marvel. It is a honey-diesel, but also very powerful, with insane torque.

Concerning the Jeep itself, well...all reviews says it is a bit soft from the front and harder from the rear, but overall good road qualities...

What I know, is that the finition is truly awful. The materials used are all very poor. Only hard plastic everywhere, too shiny, and some pieces even are a bit loose like the counter panel that does not seems very solid...you can move it by hand...it is its only big flaw. I don't know about you, but for me the interior is extremely important, it is one of the most important thing in a car for me.

So the car is not bad, the diesel and gearbox are fantastic, but the finition and materials are awful.

If you get it at a good price, why not. I don't know, maybe where you live it is a lot less expensive than the German SUVs, then it really could make sense. Limited is very well equipped.

I have to say that I prefer the Comander, and by far. The finition and materials are slightly better, but thing is they pass with the style of the dash. It looks "hard-core", not "luxurious" like the Gd CRK, so it is not as hair-dresser. And you sit much higher, like in a Comand-Car, very impressive feeling this Comander, i like it a lot. And given the poor sales you can have it at a good price. I love its look also, but that is not the case of everybody...

If you want the old Gd CRK, then I can give you better advice, my Dad had two of these.

I would say, try it, and compare it. Question of price, too. The diesel motor is gorgeous. if you are not a finition-freak, it is an excellent vehicle. From what i saw, touched and read, because again I never testdrove it.

From what I know it is quite reliable, has no particular problem. if you like it, after having seen and testdrove it, no reason not to buy one.

PS: if it is the old Gd CRK that you want, I can make a review for you, my Dad had two of these.

we have had them in the past aswelll....i actually like the interior...its alot better than other chryslers and i really like the drive..ive driven just about every SUV...I like these for some reason maybe cause we've had them since i was young...my parents like the m-class and the x5 but x5 is too much $$$...

Honestly, I'd get something else than the Jeep... But that's of course just my opinion.

They are pretty nice and fairly limited... Hard to find for the most part... But its a Jeep and therfore a strong SUV. Depending on your needs, it is a great vehichle.

ye we live close to a field and it snows alot here....blowing snow...a bmw doent cut it for the winter
