What do you think about the nissan titan, do you see alot of them with 200,000+ miles?

I don't dislike them, but I put the Toyota in a higher class.

No, I haven't seen very many with that high of mileage. I'm not saying that they won't make it, just that I don't see them that often.

I ended up getting an '03 Toyota Sequoia with the 4.7 Liter and 150,000 miles. It is the same frame, engine, and transmission as the tundra. I would of preferred to go with the tundra, but I feel like I got a better deal on the sequoia.

Enjoy your trucks guys. Shameless opportunity to post pictures of my Grand Cherokee which I love. I did a lot of appearance modifications (mostly replacing chrome with body color painted parts and LED fogs and LED license plate lights).

Thanks! It's a 2012. Overland (includes quadra lift air suspension, ventilated seats, heated steering wheel, automatic headlamps including automatic low <--> high, automatic wipers, memory seats/radio/nav, panoramic sunroof, power liftgate, 20" wheels) 4x4 with 5.7L V8 Hemi. Jeep really made a great vehicle. It's my 3rd Grand Cherokee. Had a '98, '05, and now this '12. My parents have an '04.

Grand Cherokees have made me a lot of money in the past with A/C blend door issues.

I've had to take out the whole dash on 4 or 5 of them to fix these issues.

Honestly, though...That is one damn good looking vehicle, imo. :thumbsup:

Have any 2011 or newer had A/C blend door issues? What kind of issues would that cause the driver to notice? thanks

The frames are week as hell. If you plan on pulling anything of considerable weight, I'd look elsewhere.

Gepetto, that is one sweet ride. I worked for a dealership that had a Wrangler they put a hemi in. They did some serious off road in it. It was totally tricked.

Awesome, love it. I drove a '98 5.9 GC, was a great truck.

 

Is yours the diesel?

The new wranglers with the pentastars are much more powerful. Probably a lot of fun too

Not yet, but if there were any problems, the dealer would be seeing them, not us.

I'm pretty sure they solved those issues on the newer models, though. :thumbsup:

Thanks! Yea, those '98 5.9s were nice. I have a 5.7L V8 Hemi. As for the diesel for the Grand Cherokee just started building them a couple of weeks ago. They should hit dealer lots anyday though.

Buddy I play hockey with got one of those last year, floored me how nice the interiors are.

 

Did you black out the emblems or did they come that way?

I bought the gloss black JEEP emblem and the entire rear brow brilliant black with brillinat black JEEP emblem. I also replaced the chrome grlle and mirror caps with brand new brilliant black parts and I removed the side chrome strips and replaced with the chrome GRAND CHEROKEE letters which I also bought. I did all of the installations myself. It's been fun modding it. The parts were from the special edition Altitude and Vapor editions. These were actually MY idea! I posted a thread describing a special edition that JEEP should make on a popular Jeep forum and Jeep rolled it out a week later at the Houston, D.C., and Chicago Auto Shows, after the poll/thread received over 85% positive reactions. They won't pay me though, just stole my idea; oh well, at least the factory painted parts were then available for purchase.

Oh yea, the interior on the Overland especially, like I have is really nice. I got the light frost beige / dark frost beige interior. Sometime I wish I had gotten the black interior though.

 

Here's pics of it.
