Hello ![]() I am currently on the process on buying my first car and I have two offers right now. The first one is a Jeep 2005 Grand Cherokee, Laredo. 4WD with 100k miles. Price is $7450 (It's a dealer, 3 month insurance is included for everything) The second one is a 2004 Jeep Liberty Renegade (RWD), 88k miles and price is $7300 Which one should I buy? I don't really mind for the gas mileage. School is 10mn away and workplace is 3mn away Thank you ![]() |

What engine does the gc have? Persoanlly I'd go for the one that is in better shape. I'm always a fan of lower miles. If the gc has the 3.7 persoanlly I don't see any pro's of getting the gc. |

Yes, both are V6 - 3.7 The GC is bigger, though. Isn't that an advantage? And the fact that the Liberty is RWD is not an issue? |

If the KJ is only two wheel drive then depending on what you want to do with it and where you live that could make a difference |

It's just a car for work/school. I'm not considering the Jeeps only. I've also seen a Hyundai Tucson, 2006 for $7000 I'm just coming from the test drive of the liberty and I'm not taking it: * Weird sound when I accelerate * Mirror is not working * Message saying: " bad or missing sensor " when I turn on the car Plus it's very noisy I drove the 05 Jeep GC, it's way, more quieter but the wheel is.. light. Is that normal? |

X3, boycott 2wd jeeps! They should know better... Before you drop $8k on a chariot, have it checked out by a trusted mechanic. Tell them you're thinking about buying it, and tell them to check it over like they would if their own kid was buying it. It might cost you a hundred bucks or so; it might not (some will do it for the prospect of having a new customer). They might point out some "negotiating points" that you can use at the bargaining table too. If the dealer won't let you have it looked at by a third party, RUN! |
