    Sorry but as a guy with 3 kids and a mother in law that spends 80% of her time with us(no jokes, I actually love her and we get a long fabulously) I can tell you a large row SUV is NOT a minivan alternative, it's a poor compromise. Hence why we got a Sienna in our case. If hauling people and their stuff is your main goal, the minivan is still the best option. SUVs are about the "cool" factor, not about practicability and real usability. But clearly i"m in the minority as the market has spoken the last 20 years. Like I told my wife when it came time buy a large family vehicle when it became clear we were being crammed like sardines in our Mazda5 "You don't buy a minivan because you want one. You Buy a minivan because you need one!" As a large family hauler, buying a 3 row SUV that costs more, has less overall interior space and gets worse gas mileage over a minivan just to look cool, is about the dumbest financial mistake we could make.

    Definitely agree about the piano black, and you can hardly avoid it unless doing basic entry level trims. However in a recent new purchase of a VW Atlas Cross Sport SEL, I took the Graphene ceramic I use to detail with and applied it to the piano black. We have 5,000 miles already on the vehicle thanks to a long vacation and have no scratches or anything. Cleans and wipes off well.

    I've had my Grand Cherokee L Overland for almost a month now and I absolutely love it. I've owned several Jeeps in the past and this is the first Jeep that truly feels luxurious. The L handles just as well as my 2019 Grand Cherokee Upland did. The only issue I've experienced has been with the UConnect 5 disconnecting Apple CarPlay but I am not 100% sure if that is due to the Jeep or phone software. I do miss the Sting Gray color on the Upland but the Silver does look really nice on the L. So far, 2500 miles in, this has been worth every single penny!

    1. Comparisons to the Durango are fair but they only go as far as having three rows. The platform under the Grand Cherokee L is brand new while the Durango and short wheel base Grand Cherokee ride on the WK2 platform which was designed in the mid 00s.
    2. The Grand Cherokee L is actually lighter than the short wheel base Grand Cherokee by about 150 pounds. So if anything it should be faster.
    3. The ZF 8-Speed is not slow. It’s programmed to be more tame when it’s in auto but the shifts get very quick in sport mode.
    4. The Grand Wagoneer will utilize the phenomenal Ram 1500 chassis. It will not have any overlap with the Grand Cherokee L and will be a distinct vehicle.
