General Commander DiscussionGeneral Discussion involving the Jeep Commander goes here. If it does not fit into a more specific category below, post it here.
Couldn't resist a green 5.7 hemi overland commander. 67k. doubled my cyl in one day from my cute tacoma pick up w the old school window handles...to the luxury of this tank. gas prices going below 3 bucks in nj. there IS a god. this is such a guzzler...but i am in love! anybody got a 2007 here? i figure i'll have this for another 100,000 miles. cheers!
Was wondering if any one knows where or if they can make a custom commander tow hitch cover the kind that light up? Been looking all over Internet no luck
I just bought my first Jeep. It's a 2010 with 30,000 miles that was owned by a service technician and has been really taken care of. It's White. With a 8 Cyl HEMI. It has leather, navigatation, back up camera, 4X4 crome front, with really nice brown leather seating. It's really fun to drive. It's trail rated. I am embarassed to say, I don't know anything about it, but want to learn. I was at a Volvo dealer looking at the V60 small luxury SUV. When I saw even the used were a bit out of my price point, they pulled the Commander up which was traded in by the service advisor who worked for Volvo and he traded it in.
1. Can you take this off road. It has kind of wimpy 16 inch tires and seems like it's really meant for just snow. Not off road. But it does day trail rated. I will like to take it off road, If i thought the truck could handle it.
2. I am concerned about the maintenance. I have heard Jeep's are not reliable. But I guess if a car has been taken care of, you should be ok if you take care of it.
3. I paid 24,500. Which I think was a bit much. I wonder if they will keep the resell value. I figue the V-8 might since they really don't make these anymore. I Plan to keep it for at least 3 or 4 years and enjoy driving it.
Just bought an '09 Overland, Silver w/90k miles. NW burbs of Chicago.
Last Jeep was a new '89 Wrangler. Last year of the carb on Wranglers. After 3 carb rebuilds in the first 3 years (no warranty coverage!) I swore I'd never own another Chrysler product again.
2006, Light Khaki, 4.7, 100K, Maryland.
My fourth Jeep. Owned 2 Wranglers and a Liberty.
I saw this Khaki 2006 Commander and immediately had to have it.
It's got 100K on it but it is Tight, Clean, and it's mine
I've been reading alot of the threads and it's great to have the knowledge shared around here at the tip of my fingers.
