Getting an '08 Grand Cherokee diesel later today. Two cool things...

1) wife thinks it's her idea...

2) $200 less than what I paid for the KJ in March '05...

It will be her vehicle, I'm keeping the KJ until the doors fall off, then getting a roll of duct tape.

I test drove an 08' Sat. they were trying to sell it for $38,600 (sticker $43,800) told them they were crazy and walked out.

Clarkston Chrysler Jeep (Clarkston MI) 248.620.4200. Yes they had one more, a black Laredo.

My price was steeply discounted because there are a ton of employee incentives at the moment. They were trying to entice people to leave by giving $25k vehicle vouchers as part of the buyout.

I didn't take the buyout (my second job fell through), but took advantage of the discounts available.

I'd love to have a GC CRD, but they are still awfully expensive, even with the deep discount.

I only paid $19,000 for my KJ, and I thought that was a bit steep for a used car, I just wanted a diesel.

At least one local Jeep/Chrysler dealer is advertising AT LEAST $10,000 OFF INVOICE on every vehicle in stock :shock: Since they are not a Dodge dealer I wonder if they will be closing?? There have now been 6 new car dealers closing this year as of yesterday in Central Ohio :?

Good thing you managed to pull off # 1. That way, if you run into any KJ CRD-type problems with it, you can always remind her it was HER idea! :lol:

If anything mechanical/technical/electrical/expensive happens to her car, usually it's not my fault - but I do get the pleasure of fixing it for her :)

Sorry for hijacking the thread, but I gotta know if BlackLibertyCRD is still using the lift pump up near the filter?

There is a blue 08 Laredo 4x4 CRD at a local dealer that the wife gave me permission to check out tomorrow. I'm 2000 miles out of warranty and the fuel head won't pump up so I can bleed it anymore. A lift pump would suck to do right now so a new vehicle with a warranty seems like a nicer option. If it's a nice deal with the right financing it should be the same payment as I'm making now. It'll probably be gone by the time I get there tomorrow though.

It is interesting that the GC CRD seems to be finally selling when the price is cut 10-15k, bringing it down to around $ 30 grand or so. If Jeep had not been so greedy in the first place they would have sold a ton of the GCs at the lower price instead of having them sit on lots until the tires had flat spots. Replacing a 25k vehicle (the liberty crd) with a 45k vehicle was an example of beyond stupid marketing and is a particularly good example of "Big 3" thinking.
