Evenin' :-)
Well... tonight I stopped by the Jeep dealer and had a look at the Commander.
Hmmm... I like it. A lot. Has me wonderin' if'n that if I'm gonna get something to carry more people and stuff, maybe it'd just as well be lots of people and stuff.
:-) ...and it's got neat toys.
Is this instead of Mustang, or in addition to?
In addition to.
Instead of the Subaru.
We'll be down in the 40s tomorrow night. Break out the scarves and gloves!
That's a good choice then, if it's in addition to :~D
But you're gonna be back to not having a big enough garage.
It's got better ground clearance than the Subaru, but I'm sure the price reflects that. :-/
But it does look a bit boxier than the Grand Cherokee, so it's closer in appearance to the one your dad had before.
We will be down into the 20's here in North Central Florida. The orange trees actually do better with a few hours like this.
Really? I always thought that frost was the biggest threat to our citrus crop.
How does it help?
Bundle up, LCS! For the next few days anyway. hehehehe...
Well... it's gonna have to sit outside. I think I would garage the mustang.
It's got one little annoyance though. The third row of seats is really unnecessary, and they don't come out, at least not easily (that is, leaving a nice flat floor). All the seats do fold down giving a flat floor but it's maybe four inches higher than it needs to be.
That said, it's still a big cargo space, probably bigger than the cherokee was. Just higher.
But there's lots of neat things about it. Mainly that it is really comfortable. Lots of room. The rear seats even recline. Four people could go on a long road trip and be plenty comfy.
Huh - that third row of seats is really unnecessary for a lot of people, you'd think it would be an option.
It's very boxy. I like that. It looks like a Jeep. The grand cherokee looks like a Lexus. Don't like that.
Well, that... and the 5.7L Hemi. :-)
If you're getting a monster like that, why not go all of the way and get a Hummer!
I could get on board with that.
Ramius, why not a hummer?
The sales droid said that everybody says that.
That means odds are good it'll be an option on the 2007, but I dunno if I wanna wait that long.
It ain't nearly as boxy as a hummer.
Well... they're about 100k... fer starters. :-)
But I don't want ~really~ big. Not Navigator or Excursion big.
Oh - so there's that. :~\
That's not a real hummer. That's a Suburban.
The girl on the roof is a nice option. I'll see if Jeep has those. :-P
The third row doesn't come out easily? That makes no sense.
Here's betting that next year's model ~will~ have removable third-row seating.
And as for that engine....vroom, vroom! :-)
