I have the Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland and REGRET NOTHING! The salesman hooked me with "doesn't a hard working mother like yourself deserve a reward now and then?" Mine is maroon and I love everything about it!
They must have updated the manual because loading the car seat into the th-cam.com/users/postUgkxIG_q-ZqgbzYXwbeApK3AybegDUy4f2fF double stroller was mentioned in the manual (unlike previous comments/reviews). The undercarriage basket is quite large but it is difficult to access when the back rider is reclined, however my toddler usually doesn't fall asleep in the stroller these days so I haven't had an issue. I was amazed by how smooth the ride was and how easily I was able to maneuver the stroller in small spaces. My toddler loves that she can see her baby sister (see photo) during the ride :) Plus you can't beat the price! I have only loaded it once in my car and it is fairly light but my mother wouldn't be able to lift it in.
We just upgraded to this (Summit trim) from a Palisade Calligraphy and I’m truly obsessed. Don’t get me wrong, I loved my Pal, I thought I’d never find another car I loved as much until this one! It is bigger than the Palisade (we literally took a measuring tape to compare) and it’s so much easier to put our toddler in and out- currently rear facing in a Extend2Fit. The interior is stunning, the drive is so much more solid and it overall feels just so lux. My fav features are the massage seats, the car seat friendly tilt and the night vision (shows and alerts for deer and other objects through night vision sensors in the 360 cameras). Ours also has the famcam system and it is hands down what sold me on it, being able to see my kids in their seats, especially rear facing, gives me such peace of mind. It’s literally a Grand Waggoner in a smaller size; we test drove one and liked this better! And, the 2 seat set up in the 3rd row is honestly superior to any 3rd row I’ve sat in based on comfort and roominess, lets be honest, no adult is going to be comfortable in that “middle” seat, even in the largest SUV’s. I think the color didn’t do this car justice and made it look and seem a lot smaller. Ours is white with a black trimmed roof and we have the caramel type leather, it’s STUNNING and so high end. Ours also came with a middle console between the captains that adds extra storage; actually useful unlike the narrow “walkway” in most SUV’s. I would honestly comp this to a Tahoe v. A Palisade or a Telluride. Again, it’s bigger and stronger (the Summit Reserve is a V8) and has a lot more tech.
Just bought this last week, and I LOVE it! I have the limited trim level and love that Family Camera! My single Graco stroller can fit in the back with the third row up, but just barely. Definitely perfect for my 2 car seat setup with an occasional extra passenger. Love your page!!
did you order it with the fam cam? I can't find any near me with that, the digital rear view camera or the power folding seats. The dealership said id need to go up to the overland to add those features
I really enjoy your reviews! I’m a mom of teens, so no car seats for a while, but I still sometimes haul a bunch of kids around. I would love if you would bring a purse with you for future reviews and show where you would place it without affecting your passenger. That’s a biggie for me and I’m sure, most women.
We bought this exact jeep the day they hit the car lot near me. I LOVE this SUV. Im a tech guy and I love all the tech stuff built it. This is my wifes DD and one of the things she loves about it is the automatic suspension lowering when she shuts the car off. Easier for her to get in and out. It also has easy out on the drivers seat where it pushes back away from the steering wheel for us larger people lol. The suspension is adaptive which is awesome, when you go over a certain speed it will lower itself into a more aero shape to help on MPG. I have to 100% disagree with her assessment on the backup camera being grainy, not true at all. We upgraded from a 2020 grand and the camera is 100x better in a every way. Some things we dont like about it: The drivers compartment is a little smaller than the passengers we feel like. It might not be but we have both mentioned it. The normal grand we also feel looks better, and we get its a larger, longer car, but honestly it kinda looks awkward when you get up and close to it. The review camera just seems too zoomed in for where its at. At a stoplight someone can be behind you in the correct position but on the camera we cant even see the hood it makes them seem like they are so close. It is definitely an adjustment to get used to. It has passive entry for the trunk with your foot, we havent found the sweet spot yet lol, its possible we havent turned on the setting. The one thing that really annoyed us with this jeep is if you buy the Limited trim with the tech group 2 package, it comes with the family cam, but in the overland you cant select the tech group 2, you can only select the tech group 4 which doesnt have the family cam. You only get the family cam in the overland if you also select the "advanced pro tech group 2" WHAT!!! This was the one feature my wife wanted that we didnt get. The car was so new that the dealer didnt know about it either. You would assume that the tech group 4 included everything within the tech group 2 and added stuff. So removing items from the tech group and making them a stand alone purchase option is bullshit. We didnt figure this out until a week later when we picked up plates and i peaked into the limited on the showroom floor and saw the family cam. Would would have paid for the pro tech group if we would have known, really ticked me off... Overall, I love the L, it think its amazing. I wouldn't go back to the regular grand. 9/10 for me, 8/10 for the wife.
I just bought my Summit Reserve 2 weeks ago and I am in love! Got mine in white and I reacted exact same when I got into the cockpit. And I also keep a microfiber towel in the center console. For that shallow door cubby, I keep a seatbelt cutter/window smasher and it fits quite nicely!🙌🏻💗
Massaging seats in a vehicle aren't meant to be therapeutic. It's there to keep your muscles moving enough to prevent pins and needles during long trips.
So glad you pointed out the issue with the projectiles! We love the new Jeep but trying to find one with a bench seat is like finding a needle in a haystack! 😊
Got one with Bucket Seats - went from a Q7 to this and I’m impressed with how much more features come in it from my Audi (including the massaging seats and also more techy) mom of 3 here. For a summit
I almost bit the bullet on a G Cherokee L Overland Diamond Black Pearl with the 5.7l but only thing that kept me from buying it was a smart financial decision to pay off my wife's emergency surgery first before we go bite the bullet then again........ Jeep has the Wagoneer and G Wagoneer coming out next month
The Wagoneers are starting at a minimum 60k for a very base model. Preliminary road tests say the mpg will be terrible. Maybe 18 hwy. But..if someone can afford one, I don't think fuel costs will really matter.
I just picked up my new fully-loaded 2021 Jeep Grand-Cherokee L MSRP $85,000 for passing my driver's license test as a first car. However the deal was that I had to pass my drivers license test on the first try, if so my parent's would buy me any car I wanted as long as it's under $100,000 just FYI I'm 20 year's old, and mine is black with a black leather interior. NOTE my Jeep Grand-Cherokee L was a custom build off of Jeep's website just like yours. Plus the $85,000 price tag is just for the car and nothing else, also I was hoping for more of a performance sort of review but you still did an excellent job. EDIT, mine is also the top trim level on top of having all of the the option's and packages.
For the price, I would rather just go up to an Expedition, Tahoe, or Yukon. I drive a grand Cherokee now and it’s been great, but to me this isn’t worth the price tag
Sadly I thought the same but you don't get as much features in the yukon or tahoe they are much more expensive to get all of these luxuries. I've been looking into them recently
Base model for any of these will still be a minimal 60k with bare bone features. Also jeep has 5500 manufacturer discount on limited editions and most dealerships are taking off an additional 3-4k so getting this mid 40s is reasonable right now.
You’re mistaken, Catie. To get the fam cam on the Overland trim, you have to opt for the Advanced Pro Tech III option for $2k to get it. Your car probably has the Pro Tech option. Check your window sticker to confirm. In Kelly’s model in her video however, her car probably did not have that option which is my made mention to it being missing.
This is super comparable to the Cadillac Xt6 I had. Just traded for the wagoneer which I LOVE! They do have a slightly larger cargo space than other SUVS in comparable sizes.
Just a question how safe are tether anchors for child seats??? With a jeep roll over are a thing. How is the roll over crash safety test on the new Jeep?
Also want to note I have the Loredo trim and have heated seats and steering and power trail get for $43,000. So options are available on lower trim level
Price to high compared to what? A Ford Explorer? Their interiors are no where near this! A BMW? You’ll pay way more for a Bimmer with the package on this or the Summit. Under $70k grand for a vehicle of this luxury is actually quite good.
It looks A LOT like a top trim Dodge Durango plus a little Jeep grill. I think they are basically the same car/frame. IIHS safety ratings weren’t fantastic for the Grand Cherokee/Durango when it caught my eye so I went with something else. Front corner impact on the legs was particularly concerning… wonder if it’s been fixed.
Hi! I loovvveee your videos, thanks for the genuine feedback on each of these cars! Was wondering if you could review the Volvo XC40, and the new Chevy Blazer??
I owned a Jeep Cherokee for years and loved it. Reluctantly, opted for a Toyota Highlander now that my kids are older and carpooling is more likely. I have missed my Jeep Cherokee and the true SUV feel of it vs.Toyota Highlander. To me, the Toyota Highlander and Honda Pilot feel like a minivan without sliding doors. This new Cherokee could be the Dodge Durango's twin. Our Jeep mechanic told us that the Durango is built on the same frame as the Cherokee. Now that my kids are old enough to be in boosters I'd really consider this new Cherokee third row, but the maintenance on Jeep's could easily talk me out of it.
@Rebie Bautista Lash The 2022 Grand Cherokee L & current Durango aren't actually "twins" as both the Grand Cherokee L & upcoming redesigned 2022 Grand Cherokee 2-row are built on an all new FCA Giorgio Platform unlike the current 3rd Gen Durango & past 2011-2020 Grand Cherokee models which both share an older platform (Wk2 platform/Mercedes M Class).
My 2012 grand cherokee (overland) had unconnect as well, but this one is massively updated. This one has WIRELESS Android auto and Apple car play with unconnect too.
Pretty surprised here...as gorgeous as the car is, it looks like it would feel super crammed in there compared to the competition. Thats a bummer. Nice car though, thank you for the video!!
I was really, really excited about this but I'm not all that impressed. The price point 👎, truck space compared to my current Honda pilot 👎. Jeep does a great job with the interior vs Honda but I just don't know about everything else.
Yes! I was wanting to see this compared to my pilot. Super dissapointed. I have more cupholders in my Pilot. Loved the rear camera and the rear sunroof though. Just was hoping it was bigger.
Can you put the camera on what your talking about? I want to see what your talking about as your talking about it. Make this the standard. In some of your videos you do good about doing that but not all. Thank you just want to give some good feedback.
I would love to see you review the new Ford Bronco from a mom's perspective! It's high on my short list for my next car but not sure how it would hold up against 2 rear facing car seats and a stroller!
Which Bronco are you referring to as there are two separate models the Bronco Sport which is the smaller CUV and then the larger Bronco but the availability for the Bronco is going to a long wait as I hear some owners are a 2 year waiting list just to get theirs.
@Claire Kerns I'm most certainly talking about the real bronco. I would have said Bronco Sport otherwise. And to clarify for @michael smith, I'm also talking about the 4 door bronco, because i'm not putting 2 rear facing car seats in a 2 door vehicle.
I gave an IMMEDIATE thumbs up because she's a woman doing reviews. Then I found out she's 6ft tall, so I had to leave a comment as well. Icing on the cake: She's reviewing for moms and families. Keep going Sweetie!!!!!!! 🥰
I’m new to your channel and I must say, after watching several hours of other car/suv reviews, you are a joy to watch. Very informative, while staying in the scoop of your channel. It’s great, keep it up!!!
Check out the Hyundai Palisade or the Kia Telluride. My Palisade Limited FWD has similar options for $14K less. The night vision and the McIntosh Stereo system are the major options that I don’t have in the Palisade but I do have the Harmon Kardon stereo system and it sounds very good plus the ceiling vents.
@@Liveeachmoment90 …..she may have but that’s not the actual numbers that I’ve found, which state all around that the interior space is less in the Grand Cherokee L in comparison to the Palisade. I looked at two different sources and both stated that fact. Here the Grand Cherokee L numbers from Car and Driver: Interior Dimensions Passenger / Seating Capacity 6 Total Passenger Volume (cubic feet) 151.9 Front Head Room (inches) 39.8 Front Leg Room (inches) 41.3 Front Shoulder Room (inches) 59.2 Front Hip Room (inches) 57.4 Second Row Head Room (inches) 39.9 Second Row Leg Room (inches) 39.4 Second Row Shoulder Room (inches) 58 Second Row Hip Room (inches) 56.3 Third Row Head Room (inches) 37.3 Third Row Leg Room (inches) 30.3 Third Row Shoulder Room (inches) 51.9 Third Row Hip Room (inches) 42.9 Here’s the 2021 Palisade from Car and Driver, as well: Interior Dimensions Passenger / Seating Capacity 7 Total Passenger Volume (cubic feet) 155.3 Front Head Room (inches) 39.3 Front Leg Room (inches) 44.1 Front Shoulder Room (inches) 61.2 Front Hip Room (inches) 58.1 Second Row Head Room (inches) 38.8 Second Row Leg Room (inches) 42.4 Second Row Shoulder Room (inches) 60.8 Second Row Hip Room (inches) 57.7 Third Row Head Room (inches) 37.2 Third Row Leg Room (inches) 31.4 Third Row Shoulder Room (inches) 55.2 Third Row Hip Room (inches) 43.7 As you can see, the Palisade is larger in every category except headroom. That’s why it’s important to do your own research. There’s been way too much hype about this vehicle but it just doesn’t make much sense when you look at the numbers and what you’re getting for the price that you’ll have to pay. That’s why I even bothered to look. The numbers didn’t add up to me and they still don’t add up. Good luck to you, I’m loving my 2021 Palisade Limited.
Love it! Bought it! Obsessed with the white Overland. My Peg Perego stroller fits with the third row up. I was able to move around the second and third row easy so I could feed the baby. Mom of 2 (newborn and preschooler) and loving it!
That's nice. Glad you like it. Were you able to fit the stroller by removing the cargo cover or was it still intact when you did that? I test drove this new generation fifth generation Jeep Grand Cherokee L couple weeks ago and it was good. Trim level I test drove was in the Limited trim. The overall ride was nice n comfy and it wasn't even the top trim level I test drove. Imagine how the top three trims Overland, Summit and Summit Reserve feels like. That's good you got yours in the Overland trim. Basically that's where the nice features or "The bells and whistles" start. I currently have the third generation Jeep Grand Cherokee in the Limited trim and I have intentions on getting the Jeep Grand Cherokee L. However, I'm not going to get the first year of the new generation though. I'll get the second year of the new generation Jeep Grand Cherokee L so that it'll give me more time to put some money aside for it and also by that time couple more standard features will get added. When the time comes for me to get it I'll get it in the Overland trim nicely equipped with the legendary 5.7 liter HEMI V8 engine. Should be GRRREAT!!
Jeep placed vents in the left and right pillars. Left and right pillars for both the second and third rows. The air flow will be more effective that way and placing them in the ceiling would definitely for sure take away headroom.
We test drove a Limited yesterday. LOVED it. I’ve had 2 Jeep’s thus far and the test drive of the L was smoother than my previous Jeep’s. It also had the camera view of all the passenger seats. I’m shocked the overland package didn’t have that. Love your videos! Thanks!
For those with smaller kiddos, the side step is a must...especially for a higher ground clearance vehicle. Got the MOPAR ones from the dealer for our Grand Cherokee and it has made life so much easier for the kids (and mom and dad too). They can be ordered as part of the build for the L. If these are anything like the aftermarket ones, it’s a great investment.
Loved this! It’s making me reconsider getting one. We have a 2015 Grand Cherokee and neither of us are over 6’ tall, but with a rear-facing Rava, we have to sit pretty far forward, and we’re about to have another baby. We peeked inside of one at an event and didn’t really think it looked much bigger - looked quite cramped honestly. BUT we didn’t get in and didn’t know about the features like being able to move the second row back, so now I’m thinking it might work! Excited to see the Wagoneer video from you whenever that comes out, but I just can’t stomach that $100k pricetag 😅
Ridiculous. The options are functional, help maintain value, and better for resale. Let me guess -- you couldn't afford anything more than a Limited without going up to your eyes in debt. So everyone else that is able to is doing it to brag. What a brat. 🙄
@@DellyDoo if you truly like this vehicle you are not looking for resale value. Plus massaging seats, front row hooks, heads up display and ‘special’ leather seats are NOT needed. But if you can afford it and want it, go be you. I simply look at what things I need to have and what I want to have.
atlas has the car seat tilt for a much lower price, in terms of space and cost the atlas would be a clear winner but the jeep has nicer finishes and more power.atlas can fit a bob stroller in behind the third row.
My wife has a 2019 Atlas now, and we are switching to the Grand Cherokee L when her lease is up in a few months. We do like our Atlas but the Jeep having better tech and finishes is worth the slight price bump.
Price is insane, but it looks nice. If you don't need a 3rd row, I read that they are coming out with a regular 2 row GC this fall that will be a little cheaper.

Massaging seats in a vehicle aren't meant to be therapeutic. It's there to keep your muscles moving enough to prevent pins and needles during long trips.
The GC-L is fire! But still waiting for when the wagoneer drops 😍
You would expect for $60k they could give you a decent paint job. The "orange peel" on that thing is horrendous.
I want one but until we get back to a world of dealer discount and rebates it isn’t happening.
So glad you pointed out the issue with the projectiles! We love the new Jeep but trying to find one with a bench seat is like finding a needle in a haystack! 😊
My wife and I got tired of searching for one with the bench seat, we gave up and went with the captain chairs. WE LOVE IT.
Love your review style, very funny but very informative at the same time and not overly serious.
Really fantastic reviews.
If you're in Europe set the play back speed to 0.75 and you'll understand a lot more.

Yeah it looks better on the Cherokee limited x black out option.
Tesla Model Y for a review please
For anyone curious... I own an overland just like this and they do come with a "fam cam" that shows everyone in the back seat.

Great review! Would like to see the Honda Pilot and Infiniti QX60
This is super comparable to the Cadillac Xt6 I had. Just traded for the wagoneer which I LOVE! They do have a slightly larger cargo space than other SUVS in comparable sizes.
The interior camera comes with the panoramic roof so you must access it through the infotainment screen. Just FYI.
Just a question how safe are tether anchors for child seats??? With a jeep roll over are a thing. How is the roll over crash safety test on the new Jeep?
Roll over on modern jeeps haven't been a thing for a while outside of the wrangler and still not terrible on the newer wranglers
Also want to note I have the Loredo trim and have heated seats and steering and power trail get for $43,000. So options are available on lower trim level
Pricing is too high. It is an incredibly sexy vehicle and the interior is really nice!

Can you please tour the new 2022 Jeep Wagoneer? And tell us the difference between the Wagoneer and the Grand Wagoneer? Thanks!
Car Mom is gorgeous.
Please review a GLS!
Here post company meeting..loving this❤️
Can you review the Grand Cherokee Limited X for 2 kids? The L version seems so huge because it’s longer than the Highlander which feels so massive.
Also in 2022 there will be a supposedly plug in hybrid, so I’m super curious about it because it’ll have killer fuel economy.
I have the FamCam feature and it works great!
Please tour a Mercedes!! GLE, GL, GLS!! Thank you and love the informative content! 👧🏼👶🏼🤰🏻
Yes, a GLS please!
Thank you calling out massaging seats as overrated.
Back to the car, this thing will sell like crazy.
double agree!
I really wish they had safety ratings posted.
Could you tour the EUV like Kona, Bolt, and the new ariya that is coming out
what would you recommend the grand cherokee L or the VW Atlas SEL?
We have a summit reserve and love it
I really like this...but if I'm dropping 65k I'm looking at Range Rover Velar/Discovery and other luxury brands.
Are the seats on the telluride car seat tilt friendly? Stuck between these two cars
Do you have a review of 2021 cadillac xt6 would love to see that
And great great review.
Comes with wireless Android Auto and Wireless Carplay!!
Will you be doing a GV80 or GV70??
I LOVE IT!
Why do they always put chrome on it though?
Did you mention it does have Apple CarPlay? Wasn’t sure. I know they use UConnect and my current grand Cherokee does not have UConnect. Thanks.
My 2012 grand cherokee (overland) had unconnect as well, but this one is massively updated. This one has WIRELESS Android auto and Apple car play with unconnect too.
It does have it.
Pretty surprised here...as gorgeous as the car is, it looks like it would feel super crammed in there compared to the competition. Thats a bummer. Nice car though, thank you for the video!!
Can you do Genesis GV80 with the third row
I was really, really excited about this but I'm not all that impressed. The price point 👎, truck space compared to my current Honda pilot 👎. Jeep does a great job with the interior vs Honda but I just don't know about everything else.
Yes! I was wanting to see this compared to my pilot. Super dissapointed. I have more cupholders in my Pilot. Loved the rear camera and the rear sunroof though. Just was hoping it was bigger.
Do the 2021 chevy silverado rst
Can you put the camera on what your talking about? I want to see what your talking about as your talking about it. Make this the standard. In some of your videos you do good about doing that but not all. Thank you just want to give some good feedback.
Can you review a Dodge Durango?
I feel like all car interiors are starting to look the same. Especially the dashboard and stuff. With the standalone center screen and etc.
I mean I like it but $60,000 is a big YIKES for me
What's up with the Jeep transmission?? Laggy and sluggish. Shame because I leased the same Jeep. Love it otherwise. Thanks for the video
Is there a heads up display??
It's an option, the Jeep website lists all the available features ;-)
Looks like a Dodge Durango!
She’s super cute…..but boy, listening to her makes me want drink until i pass out….and i dont drink.
Why did I think this was Shea
the jeep font does suck
I'm Jeff do you wear your black flats
If you buy a Jeep just remember that they’re built by Chrysler so their probably gonna have high maintenance
Looks exactly like a Durango. Disappointed with Jeep.
It is a damn mommy wagon they better make the small wheel base more masculine
Stfu :)
Wish the hood covered the wipers.
Would love to see a ranking of 7 passenger SUVs!
yes!!!
Yes, would love to hear and see this!
Me too … that’s literally what I’m looking for … but need it from a mom’s perspective
YES ! All mums with 4+ kids need this ranking!
2030 jeep Cherokee.
Now I know $1.2 million seems like a lot but you’re getting a 10 inch touch screen instead of the previous 9.5
All cars cost more these days. Even accords and Camry’s have gone up in class. Whether this is a good thing or not is up for debate.
the 2022 ford expedition already has a 15.0inch screen lol!
My mom makes these at her plant here in Detroit
That’s cool!
Much love and appreciation to your mom!
@@Sevillana2001 thank you!
I love these! I’m a big of them. Love how they look, drive, and of course, I love the capability built into these.
I would love to see you review the new Ford Bronco from a mom's perspective! It's high on my short list for my next car but not sure how it would hold up against 2 rear facing car seats and a stroller!
yes!!
Which Bronco are you referring to as there are two separate models the Bronco Sport which is the smaller CUV and then the larger Bronco but the availability for the Bronco is going to a long wait as I hear some owners are a 2 year waiting list just to get theirs.
@Claire Kerns I'm most certainly talking about the real bronco. I would have said Bronco Sport otherwise. And to clarify for @michael smith, I'm also talking about the 4 door bronco, because i'm not putting 2 rear facing car seats in a 2 door vehicle.
I gave an IMMEDIATE thumbs up because she's a woman doing reviews.
Then I found out she's 6ft tall, so I had to leave a comment as well.
Icing on the cake: She's reviewing for moms and families.
Keep going Sweetie!!!!!!! 🥰
I’m new to your channel and I must say, after watching several hours of other car/suv reviews, you are a joy to watch. Very informative, while staying in the scoop of your channel. It’s great, keep it up!!!
thank you so much!
Loving this car review. "Kind of a grainy camera, if I'm being honest." :) Those are the type of insights I'm looking for. Subscribed!
Appreciate this review! Honestly I would love to see a review of the L but at one of the lower price points.
Check out the Hyundai Palisade or the Kia Telluride. My Palisade Limited FWD has similar options for $14K less. The night vision and the McIntosh Stereo system are the major options that I don’t have in the Palisade but I do have the Harmon Kardon stereo system and it sounds very good plus the ceiling vents.
@@kennethwalton5582 I think she said the Palisade had less cargo space tho.
@@Liveeachmoment90 …..she may have but that’s not the actual numbers that I’ve found, which state all around that the interior space is less in the Grand Cherokee L in comparison to the Palisade. I looked at two different sources and both stated that fact.

As you can see, the Palisade is larger in every category except headroom. That’s why it’s important to do your own research. There’s been way too much hype about this vehicle but it just doesn’t make much sense when you look at the numbers and what you’re getting for the price that you’ll have to pay. That’s why I even bothered to look. The numbers didn’t add up to me and they still don’t add up. Good luck to you, I’m loving my 2021 Palisade Limited.
Love it! Bought it! Obsessed with the white Overland. My Peg Perego stroller fits with the third row up. I was able to move around the second and third row easy so I could feed the baby. Mom of 2 (newborn and preschooler) and loving it!
That's nice. Glad you like it. Were you able to fit the stroller by removing the cargo cover or was it still intact when you did that? I test drove this new generation fifth generation Jeep Grand Cherokee L couple weeks ago and it was good. Trim level I test drove was in the Limited trim. The overall ride was nice n comfy and it wasn't even the top trim level I test drove. Imagine how the top three trims Overland, Summit and Summit Reserve feels like. That's good you got yours in the Overland trim. Basically that's where the nice features or "The bells and whistles" start. I currently have the third generation Jeep Grand Cherokee in the Limited trim and I have intentions on getting the Jeep Grand Cherokee L. However, I'm not going to get the first year of the new generation though. I'll get the second year of the new generation Jeep Grand Cherokee L so that it'll give me more time to put some money aside for it and also by that time couple more standard features will get added. When the time comes for me to get it I'll get it in the Overland trim nicely equipped with the legendary 5.7 liter HEMI V8 engine. Should be GRRREAT!!
Did you ever feel that baby wasn't getting enough air circulation? We live in Texas and im nervous without the overhead air that baby will get hot?
Kind of disappointing that there’s no ceiling vents!
IMO floor vents combined with the pillar vents are much more effective.
Ceiling vents actually take away headroom plus it is a packaging nightmare especially with most cars and suv having full length sunroofs....
Jeep placed vents in the left and right pillars. Left and right pillars for both the second and third rows. The air flow will be more effective that way and placing them in the ceiling would definitely for sure take away headroom.
We test drove a Limited yesterday. LOVED it. I’ve had 2 Jeep’s thus far and the test drive of the L was smoother than my previous Jeep’s. It also had the camera view of all the passenger seats. I’m shocked the overland package didn’t have that. Love your videos! Thanks!
"It's not a deep tish" lol
For those with smaller kiddos, the side step is a must...especially for a higher ground clearance vehicle. Got the MOPAR ones from the dealer for our Grand Cherokee and it has made life so much easier for the kids (and mom and dad too). They can be ordered as part of the build for the L. If these are anything like the aftermarket ones, it’s a great investment.
Defiantly upgrading our current jeep Cherokee to this Grand Cherokee L. Adding a second child within a year or two and this will be perfect for us!
Loved this! It’s making me reconsider getting one. We have a 2015 Grand Cherokee and neither of us are over 6’ tall, but with a rear-facing Rava, we have to sit pretty far forward, and we’re about to have another baby. We peeked inside of one at an event and didn’t really think it looked much bigger - looked quite cramped honestly. BUT we didn’t get in and didn’t know about the features like being able to move the second row back, so now I’m thinking it might work! Excited to see the Wagoneer video from you whenever that comes out, but I just can’t stomach that $100k pricetag 😅
I really like that Jeep stayed tried and true and didn't do the oh so popular double space for their logo on back or front.
So happy to see this review! Been holding out on a decision until I could see your review on it!
I’m a mom of 3 , all under 4 with one on way and I have watched all your reviews 😂😂
I have ONLY owned Grand Cherokee's and was excited the year our family grew, so did the Jeep👏🏻
Still considering the Q7 or Aviator too🤔
I think the Limited is good enough for most people. Anything over that is just options brag about.
Ridiculous. The options are functional, help maintain value, and better for resale. Let me guess -- you couldn't afford anything more than a Limited without going up to your eyes in debt. So everyone else that is able to is doing it to brag. What a brat. 🙄
@@DellyDoo if you truly like this vehicle you are not looking for resale value. Plus massaging seats, front row hooks, heads up display and ‘special’ leather seats are NOT needed. But if you can afford it and want it, go be you. I simply look at what things I need to have and what I want to have.
atlas has the car seat tilt for a much lower price, in terms of space and cost the atlas would be a clear winner but the jeep has nicer finishes and more power.atlas can fit a bob stroller in behind the third row.
My wife has a 2019 Atlas now, and we are switching to the Grand Cherokee L when her lease is up in a few months. We do like our Atlas but the Jeep having better tech and finishes is worth the slight price bump.
Also, in the SUV's favor, the Laredo does have a Luxury Package that gives you heated seats, a power tailgate, etc.
I just can't get over the fuel economy. It's pretty bad for a brand new car, however, if you're spending $60k, you can probably afford it LOL.
same as Telluride...yea not great.
@@s.t.r.o.i.x Yeah, plus I heard that the V6 is alot slower than the competition since it's heavier. Guess time will tell.
Yeah that’s why I’d love for her to review the Grand Cherokee plug in hybrid when it comes out in 2022!
What is the best SUV for a mom with 3 kids and room for a stroller?
Price is insane, but it looks nice. If you don't need a 3rd row, I read that they are coming out with a regular 2 row GC this fall that will be a little cheaper.
That's what I'm waiting on
