Deal of the Week: Jeep Grand Cherokee

2008 Jeep Grand Cherokee.jpg

There was a time when the mention of an SUV congered up images of Ford Explorers, Chevy Blazers, Nissan Pathfinders and Toyota 4Runners. These were vehicles that could tow, travel off the beaten path and have the ability to carry the entire family and a lot of their stuff. Thanks to factors such as rising gas prices and consumer's desire for a more compliant ride, SUV's have given way to CUV's like the Ford Flex, Chevy Traverse, Nissan Murano and Toyota Highlander.

The Jeep Grand Cherokee is clearly in the SUV camp, exemplified by its unmatched off-road capability. While it may not have the fuel economy or car-like ride of its CUV cousins, where the Grand Cherokee can go (or tow), those CUV's can't follow. That capability, along with its choices of four different powertrains and handsome styling, means that for some consumers, their needs can be satisfied "only in a Jeep."

Some enticing incentives never hurt either. See what is available on the Grand Cherokee this month, after the jump.

Now through the end of August, consumers can choose between $4500 cash back or 0% financing for up to 72 months. There is also an additional $1000-$2000 in bonus cash available, depending on region, whether you take the customer cash or finance rate.

These generous incentives, along with aggressive dealer discounts make this a great time to purchase a Grand Cherokee. Just make sure you are willing to accept the fuel economy compromise in exchange for its impressive all-terrain abilities.

I actually like the JGC a lot. Thought it had a very nice ride, and lots of front leg room for a midsizer. But the mpg of a Suburban is hard to swallow. Wish you could still get it with the 3.0 diesel.

You can still get the diesel... at least we can in Canada. One of the sales guys was telling most JGC are sold with the diesel now.

I don't know what the real life mileage is with the Hemi but my 4.0 JGC gets 18 to 24 mpg... not to bad considering what it can do.
