2008 Jeep Grand Cherokee test drive
overall

The 2008 Jeep Grand Cherokee is a rugged but comfortable midsize SUV.
The Jeep Grand Cherokee is one of the most rugged and capable SUVs in its class. Its strong off-road abilities and a long list of available powertrains and options make it a compelling choice, even when compared against competitors in this hotly-contested segment. Buyers that want the capabilities of a Jeep Wrangler and need room for a family will be pleased with the Grand Cherokee's configuration.
For the 2008 model year, the Grand Cherokee gets minor updates that come in the form of new tech features, off-road capability upgrades, and a handful of new safety features. The SUV’s exterior has been lightly revised with a new grille and headlight design.
The Jeep Grand Cherokee is targeted at new-car buyers that want a robust off-roader with the comfort of a family SUV. It competes with the Ford Explorer, Honda Pilot, Toyota Highlander, GMC Envoy, and Nissan Pathfinder. Trim levels include Base, Laredo, Laredo X, Limited, Overland, and SRT8.
The Grand Cherokee is available with a whopping five engine choices, three of which are rowdy V8s. There’s even a torque-rich diesel engine that delivers excellent fuel economy.
The standard mill is a 3.7-liter V6 that makes 215 horsepower and 235 pound-feet of torque. A 4.7-liter V8 is available that makes 305 horsepower and 334 pound-feet of torque. Next, there’s a 5.7-liter HEMI V8 that produces 325 hp and 369 lb-ft of torque. The range-topping gas engine is a 6.1-liter HEMI V8. Exclusive to the SRT8 model, it makes 420 hp and 420 lb-ft of torque. The Mercedes-sourced diesel is a 3.0-liter V6 with 215 horsepower and 376 pound-feet of torque. Rear-wheel drive and a five-speed automatic transmission are standard, and four-wheel drive is available.

I love the new interior, it's almost perfect. However, the center console is cheap-feeling, and the plastic chrome accents are not solid and look really fake. The HEMI has more power over the 4.7L, however it's MDS feature is worthless, adding an advertised 15% better gas mileage, but in reality it's much worse than that. The car weights over 6,000 lbs so gas mileage is pretty crappy, but that's no surprise for a 5.7L V8. I get about 12 MPG average in city and highway driving. The seats are not 8-way power like my old 1999 Grand Cherokee Limited, with manual lumbar adjustment, the passenger seat only 4-way power (can't move up/down), driver is 6-way power -- but the front of the seat doesn't go up as high as I would like it to. The wood and leather steering wheel is a very nice touch, but where the wood meats the leather, big gaps are visible which make it look cheap. I hate how the door locks are in the exact same spot as where I like to put my arm while driving, and the window sill is too high. The 1999 GC Limited didn't have these issues. Sirius satellite, while free for the first year, sounds TERRIBLE, even when compared to standard FM. This is a known issue (google it), with XM offering slightly better quality. The Sirius real-time traffic is neat, but not very practical, as it only shows major roadways and sometimes nothing at all. Once my subscription runs out I will not be renewing. The navigation/radio system sometimes gets "stuck" and won't let you press a button unless you "refresh" it by going to another screen and then back again. I'm sure there will be a software update to address this problem. The last negative thing I can think of is that the seat doesn't offer adequate side support, and I feel that I need to hold on to the center console when making sharp turns. You can't hold onto the shifter like with the < 2005 models because you will shift the gear down/up -- pretty annoying, but not a big deal. OK, now for the things I like. There are waaaaay too many to list, but I will try to touch on the best ones. The 30GB HDD is absolutely great! It has about 16 GB of space for your own music/pictures, which is more than plenty. I recommend buying a 16 GB flash drive (~ $50 on Amazon), and use it to hold your music collection including playlists. The navigation is solid, and very useful. The LED-illuminated instrument panel looks very good and is very functional. Love the HID headlights with the SmartBeam and auto-leveling features. The exterior styling is superb, looks great at any angle. Gas mileage aside, I absolutely love this car.

The Jeep Grand Cherokee is the perfect mix between luxury and functionality. You don't feel like you're in a rugged SUV when you're sitting in the drivers seat but you can haul five people and all of their winter ski gear without a problem for that winter getaway (or canoes and coolers for that summer river trip). This SUV is extremely safe, has a very smooth ride and the power-train warranty is amazing. I would definitely recommend this car to family and friends. I never owned a Jeep before this Grand Cherokee, but I will likely only buy Jeeps ever again!! I now know what people mean when they say they are Jeep People.

Definitely a car I regret buying. There were multiple things going wrong with this car with only 45,000 miles on it, so much so that I decided I had to get rid of it before even more expensive repairs came up. With only 45,000 miles on it the ignition coil broke, the air bag sensors continuously went off (warning sensors), water was leaking through the handle on the a-pillar, the moonroof constantly rattled, the glovebox didn't close properly, one of the alloy wheels had begun to flake, the paint on the hood was bubbling(!), I could go on and on and on about what broke on this car. Aside from the mechanical defects the interior was very loud, and the fuel economy was awful, averaging only 16.5 mpg. If there is a silver lining in this car it is that it was great in the snow/ice, and the Boston Acoustics speakers were very nice. That's about the only good things I can think of. I bought this car instead of a Highlander/Pilot/CX9 thinking "how bad could it be?". Don't make the same mistake I did.

This Jeep is geared low, so it has excellent acceleration. It handles very well and feels safe while driving. The cabin is quiet and has smooth ride. The seat is comfortable and adjustable, so the Jeep fits like a glove. Very dependable vehicle, just standard maintenance.
