    Grand Cherokee opinions

    Any thoughts on using a 99-2004 ish GC for an adventure/mild wheeling rig? I realize ground clearance can be an issue. I think the comfort and convenience is covered already. I am getting rid of my rockcrawler pickup and want the comfort and roadability. Also comparing a Tacoma extra cab for...
