Just checked the towing capacity of Jeep vehicles ....clicked on Jeep Liberty (the 2007 as shown on the pictuer)....and got the KK as a result!!

odd, 3.21 ratio is all that's available with the 6 speed. I didn't check it out with the auto, but isn't the KK heavier than the KJ? I wonder if the ratios in the KK's 6 speed are wider

WTF? 2,000 pounds? dude, an Accord can tow that much...that blows.

I wouldn't mind having a KK...but if it can only tow 2,000 lbs, my money would be better spent on an '05-6 GTO...at least it'll haul SOMETHING :lol:

So I noticed under technical data, Sport 4x4 they list....


spare tire:

Compact...

What? :evil:

Now I don't mind that they place it underneath. It is worthless anyway so you might as well just toss it. Limited gives me full size. So I guess soccer mommies who drive limiteds to the mall want a full size spare and sport folks want a donut to go in the woods with?

KK (Sport 4x4)

Departure angle: 30.3
Approach angle: 28.7
Breakover: 22.4
Ground Clearance: 9.0
Turn Radius: 35.5

KJ (Sport 4x4)

Departure: 31.2
Approach: 34.6
Breakover: 21.2
Ground Clearance: 9.2 (yeah right)
Turn Radius: 35.9

Winner:
Departure: KJ
Approach: KJ
Breakover: KK, but it has lower ground clearance than KJ, huh?
Ground Clearance: KJ (from Jeep site so take 9.2 inches with a grain of salt, or the whole salt shaker).
Turn Radius: KK
Spare Tire: KJ has a real one you can get too.

But the KK has all the luxury stuff and the big open roof and the cubbyholes and the cushier IFS and 5 link rear axle. Also has hill descent, and hill start control. So I guess KK is Grand Cherokee Light and JK Unlimited is KJ hardcore.
