I think it looks ok, better with that “woody trim” but no way in hell would I pay that kinda money for a damn Jeep. I understand that it’s ultra luxury, but for that kinda money, it would be Lexus LX & it’s not even close.

They just sit way too low. Almost gives it a Ford Flex vibe.


t has an air suspension that adjusts the height. When you park I lowers to make it easy to get in and out. It also lowers when on the interstate to improve wind dynamics. You can raise it as well to make it look huge.

Jeep Grand Wagoneer



Looks awesome from the front. Awkward from every other angle.

I like the new Sequioa along with the Tahoe High Country and Yukon Denali in this market segment better than the Jeep, even though I think the Jeep has a gorgeous interior.

Which itself is just a cheaply built Escalade competitor.

Except I think Jeep did a better job than a lot of people expected on the interior. But no way it's worth $120,000.

I think the Jeep might outlast a Mercedes or BMW.

Not that I think Jeep makes reliable vehicles. I just know that BMW and Mercedes are not the kind of products you can keep running for 10+ years anymore.

Denali

FULL of plastic crap. Everywhere is cheap junk.
Buddy bought a Denali 1500 diesel last year the same month I bought my Ram 1500 limited. He traded his plastic GM for a Ram Limited about 2 months ago. Said he got the flying red arse every time he got in my truck, knowing I paid less for WAY more.

I just had a client purchase one. Not sure of the package but it was $85,500 less $1,500 rebate.

Uncle had a late 80’s model one and he had nothing but problems with the transmission in it.


Hope this helps.

New ones are very nice. GMC/Chevy are the market leaders in this segment by a very wide margin. For a good reason.

They are with the V8 and most desirable packages.

No one is buying them because paying $85,000 for a suburban is ridiculous.



They actually sell a lot of Suburbans in the $80,000-$100,000 range. Not sure when the last time you bought a car was, but the prices of everything have gone up. And Suburbans were already expensive.

Navigators are easily $90,000. Yukon Denali's aren't far behind at $85,000 or so. Most Escalades are north of $100,000 these days too.

So I don't think the Grand Wagoneer's price is too far off.

Are they making them with wood paneling? I can't seem to find that option.

Wait…wut?! GMC/Chevy have finally decided to catch-up with the rest of the market. Until very recently, GMC & Chevy interiors have indeed been highly plasticky, cheap & full of “parts bin” components.

And those air suspensions goes bad often. Expect to pay 5K+ to fix or replace.

It's because their luxury interiors have been luxury-truck inspired. Meaning gaudy logos and fake chrome accents, etc. It's luxury for the Monster energy drink segment.

I will say the 2021 onward is much improved.

You won't have a problem finding one. They've been sitting on the lots for months. They would have a hard time selling them at 50k
