2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited 4WD 4dr SUV (4.0L 6cyl 4A)
Review
First Jeep I have owned and I have to say it's been a pleasure. Purchased pre-owned w/ 52K miles. Have had no major maintenance issues in 3+ years and going strong with just over 90K miles on it. We have 2 kids and 2 dogs and the Jeep (w/ a Thule box on roof) is a great sized vehicle that can go ANYWHERE!..and in comfort too. Great power, very comfortable, looks cool, drives great and very reliable. Love it, and will definitely consider replacing it w/ another Jeep someday.
Favorite Features
Power on-tap! Looks nice and drives great. Very comfortable on long road trips.
Suggested Improvements
Quieter cabin (road and wind noise), Better fuel economy (but is expected w/ full-time AWD)

2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo 4WD 4dr SUV (4.0L 6cyl 4A)
Review
My first Jeep was a CJ5. Big difference between the two of them. I loved the '5' for it's ability to climb and maneuver in tight places. I love this one for it's comfort creatures.
Favorite Features
This Grand Cherokee is loaded. I sit a bit higher, which helps me see what's coming up a few cars ahead of me. Comfort is excellent. The 4.7L has all the torque I'll ever use.
Suggested Improvements
More safety features...like airbags. Side bags in both front and back.

2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo 4WD 4dr SUV (4.0L 6cyl 4A)
Review
I have to say that I'm overall impressed with the Gran. Cher. Laredo. I've read alot of reviews on these Jeeps and some of them are way too critical. Although I also have a ticking noise when I start it, the ticking goes away after 5 min. or so. I think if the buyers would let the thing warm up in the mornin' they would see the same results. I love the way it drives compared to every SUV I've drove or even ridden in. It's so comfortable, my girlfriend and I drove 18 hours to Dallas and she slept 3/4 of the way. Plus it averaged 21mpg @ 75mph. I guess what I'm trying to say is the Jeep has come a long way, and on that I think we can all agree.
Favorite Features
Stylish Interior & Exterior, Handles Great, Powerful V-6, & Great Sound System
Suggested Improvements
All models should come with a hitch & ticking noise in motor

2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee Freedom Edition 4WD 4dr SUV (4.0L 6cyl 4A)
Review
I bought the Canadian version of the freedom, Its called the ROCKY MOUNTAIN. Ive owned a few suvs in my life and I must say, I really like the looks of this generation of jeep, Its interior is pretty boring, The seats are comfy, There is plenty of room. Its 4x4 system is immaculate. I drive it in lots of deep snow. I bought Nokian tires, they can't be beat, Its steering is incredible, The reliability is so far pretty good. No problems except a minor pin hole leak in a emissions tube. It cold starts great in bad temperatures, Lighting is good. High way and city driving is a pleasure, It feels rough and tough, I think it'll be around for awhile yet to come. I suggest this jeep to buyers.
Favorite Features
Comfort, Steering, 4X4 Capabilities, Exterior styling, chrome tow hooks front and back. Interior room. Ground clearance.
Suggested Improvements
Better interiors, Less wind noise, Less engine noise in cabin, Better headlights, Better gas mileage

Very bad manufacturing, no Wonder people don't buy American, had to change the Windows regulators in 3 of the four doors, also the front drive train had to be change already, the control for the fan broke at around 30,000 miles, will never buy another vehicle from this company again and I will not recommend this vehicle to anybody.

2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo Rwd 4dr SUV (4.0L 6cyl 4A)
Review
Bought in 2004 brand new. Fun to drive. very reliable. The v6 is a little slower than the v8.But still good pickup.Gas mileage is the only problem. $70.00 to fill up. And the gas goes fast.Around town if you don't use the A/C as much,it will help on the gas mileage.

The drive, very nice.

2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland 4WD 4dr SUV (4.7L 8cyl 5A)
Review
I've always wanted a jeep ever since i started driving. It was always my dream car and i wouldn't be happier driving anything but this vehicle! The comfort is incredible, the ride is awesome, and the car is well worth the money you spend on it even though i got a killer deal on a used one! Thanks for making the ultimate vehicle for all my driving needs!!
Favorite Features
tinted windows, sunroof, heated seats, 10 disc changer, well everything!

2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland 4WD 4dr SUV (4.7L 8cyl 5A)
Review
Bought this overland edition in nov. 07. Was certified. Had a few issues at first. Dealer was incompetent after the 2nd month all bugs were worked out, guess it had been sitting on lot for a whiles. Sumptuous leather seats sold me the 1st time sitting inside. Every option available from nav to automatic wipers.
Favorite Features
The POWER! What a sleeper. When you put the pedal to the metal, hang on!
Suggested Improvements
More mpg please, but it's not so bad. Just got 22.7 mpg on trip to cape cod running anywhere from 65 mph to 85 mph. 22.7 ain't that bad (had a 98 v8 Mountaineer before this). Jeep did a great job

2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland 4WD 4dr SUV (4.7L 8cyl 5A)
Review
I absolutely love driving my Overland. I have always had Jeeps and it doesn't get much better than this. My Overland has the high output engine so you definitely get around fast! It has everything you can get for it and I would not trade it for the world, except for a newer one (2004) It's worth the price if you find one used. I wouldn't spend the $45k for a new one, but to get one used is well worth.
Favorite Features
10 disk changer, fog lights, heated seats, dual climate control, sun roof, luggage cover, high output fast engine! Plenty of storage space, plenty of room for long car trips, pretty chrome on everything!
Suggested Improvements
better gas mileage, but isn't that everyones, complaint right now.

2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee Columbia Edition 4WD 4dr SUV (4.0L 6cyl 4A)
Review
Recently purchased a 2004 Grand Cherokee Columbia Edition from a friend. It is my second jeep and is in very good condition. It drives and handles awesome and handles the trails wonderfully. In addition, Monday - Friday I commute 40 miles one way to work and love the handling and size of this vehicle. 24 MPG would be ideal on the highways as I only get 21 at 70 MPH. Upgraded to Bridgetone REVO tires and the ride and handling is much better yet! Awesome truck will never sell!
Favorite Features
The radio with 10 disk CD changer is great. Would like a 5 band equalizer or at least a 3 band equalizer since I am an audio engineer.
Suggested Improvements
The only real improvement would be in fuel economy. The GMC Acadia seems like a bigger heavier crossover and gets 24 MPG on the Highway!
