For the guy who suggests “mossy oak” for the color of his wedding tuxedo.
The Pennsylvania Tuxedo!
Piece of shit lol
Sadly I think you can actually get something like that. God help the Republic.
I think more along the lines of a 2006 Dodge Ram with tow mirrors sticking out with your statement.
My brother in law had one of these and you pretty much just described him.
The official car of "You will address me by my husband's rank!".
underrated, but could easily be substituted for a grand cherokee today
Right?
If the rank of Corporal was a vehicle...
Echo Delta Enlisted, yes. Officers’ wives are in Sequoias for some reason.

I’m a technician at a Mopar dealer. Whenever I see one of these roll into the service parking lot, I conveniently find something else to do. I despise these things with a passion.

@@luke6587 triggered you enough to respond , and it wasn’t even directed at you.
I have the commander with the HEMI, Quadra drive 2 and all options that were available and I’m obsessed with it. Of course I’m 17 so It’s a starter car, but I love my commander
I've had a stock 2006 commander since 2006. 270,000 miles and still going. Should be named the Hummer H4.
2006 Jeep Commander, for the man who’s favorite Street Fighter character is Guile.
Had a friend who had one of these back in 08 with 5.7 HEMI in it, every time he floored it he'd yell out ITS A HEMI BROO!!
Thinking about getting one of these. I currently have an 05 Scion TC and just need something bigger. The Commander I'm looking at has the 5.7 hemi. It looks clean, some wear and tear.
"The Jeep Commander Riker" .........I freakin love the Star Trek reference! 🤣🤣🤣
Got one used. Wanted a Grand Cherokee but would have cost 30% more. Hemi with the QuadraDrive II is far and away the best driving system for lousy Newfoundland winters I have experienced. Nearly everything else was crap. Electrical, electronics, fuel system, exhaust etc. etc. Still loved it. Diesel like torque and an unbeatable surefooted winter beast.
Fun fact: the air vents out of these make EXCELLENT retrofits for NA and NB Miata vents versus the 3rd-gen Eclipse vents.
I met a knife guy once. Went to a friend's house for the first time back in the late 80s. First words from his dad to me: "Hi! LOOK AT THESE KNIVES MY BROTHER GAVE ME!"
What I notice about a couple less than desirable Jeeps (commander, patriot, second gen liberty) is the design cues from the XJ. Especially the patriot.
This was my family SUV for close to a decade. Thank you for reminding of it
The official car of the guy who has a cellar stocked floor to ceiling with ammunition and camo-patterned toilet paper, but not a drop of potable water
This was my first car. Slow, clunky, and inefficient. But goddamn i loved it, had it lifted with all terrains and a light bar and it was great in the snow. Used to take it with my buddies to go get lost down some dirt road. Good times.
20k miles in one year? wtf does he have to drive into some forest every time he needs to pee?
spiloFTW I have 3 trucks and 2 Jeeps yet I still manage to get 30-50k miles a year on at least 2 of them every year. Granted, it’s 60mi from one side of my city to the other.
When my miata got smashed by a drunk driver while street parked Enterprise gave me a charger, yeah church bus going up a hill is pretty accurate.
I had a friend who had one at the dealer for almost a year to fix the sunroof. They ended up buying back the vehicle because they couldn't get a new sunroof to fix it. it was only like 3 years old at the time
the black keys are a pretty cool band
A jawline that won’t quit
The official car of spat out sunflower seeds on the floormat and green Gatorade bottle in every door cup holder
I'm laughing my AZ off but I did buy a used 2006 4.7 for $16,000 8 years ago with 68,500 miles on it . I've had no issues with it and gave it to my wife last year with 179,567 miles on it, and she drives the crap out of it lol. but I did hear mall crawler and other remarks from my friends from the passenger seat as I gave them a ride home because there Toyota wouldn't start.
The Jeep Commander is a decent adventure family vehicle. Get a 5.7 Hemi with the Quadra Drive 2 (front and rear ELSD )and It will out perform most of it's competition. Don't know why but people get triggered by this vehicle soo bad.
One of your best yet! Keep it up, love this stuff!
I got an ad for Spartan AR500 plate armor under this video.
I don't own a Commander... but I feel attacked by the "knife guy" joke...
Some parts of the interior are the exact same as my 2015 JKU... The JK had an interior redesign in 2011 tho. Gas mileage is the same too, even though my Pentastar V6 has better torque and HP figures.
Guys drive these things? I always see moms driving them.
It looks like the box the grand Cherokee came in!
I had to replace a heater core on one of these. I never forgot. Also, none of the hardware you see is real
What are you going to use it for? Considering it's 1/2 the price of the Yota.

Damn right its square! And has all of the awful parts from mid 2000s chrysler too XD I'm also a military guy that drives one, but get the limited with a hemi, they're just as cheap as the base.
The 5 speed is the truck trans lol.
Unless it got the nag1 but I think the 4.7 got the same 545rfe that trucks got up until they switched to 8 speeds.
I like the hemi ones
I made interior parts for this car.
You can tell the owner of the car felt a little cringy when Dude slammed on the brakes
If its the v6 or 4.7 and 2wheels drive its trash but i cant relate to this video i have the hemi and actually lifted it currently on 33s

I bought a 2006 Commander in 2013. Kept it till late 2014. Had it close to 2 years. Ended up trading it for a FJ Cruiser. I love my FJ. But, I must say, the Commader was AWESOME! I wish I had kept it. I bought it with around 120k, sold it with around 150k. Drove it across the country from Chicago, to San Diego, To Miami, and all in between. During that trip I had my friend, my cousin, myself, 2 dogs, and a cat, plus tons of gear. Tons of space inside (with the 3rd row down), super smooth ride. We took it up some minimal 4wd trails in Colorado (to get up to hot springs). It really was probably my favorite vehicle I have owned (I've owned over 15 vehicles, 5 of which being Jeeps, 2 Subarus, Toyota's, Honda's, etc.). Never had any problems with it in the 30k miles I put on it when it was already old and used. Mine was the base model engine, but, I had leather heated seats and some other options probably (I don't know what, I didn't buy it new; but, the leather seating suggests some upgrades were included, like the power sunroof I had). Even with the base engine, it was plenty fast, pulled 2 jetskis just fine. Really, it was an odd vehicle in some ways, and, I agree, I'd take a 4runner any day. But, the Commander I had, kicked ass!
We're looking at one to possibly buy, and it looks like a great deal. We do a lot of work on our land, but neither of us were in the military or eat MREs. This video review is immature and stupid.
@@AmusedChild You.... you may be happier if you don't watch anything else from this channel.
Lmaoooooo 😂😂😂 this guy's a dick!!! I still love my 2008 Commander... Tough Guy!💪
I have an 06 base model commander and I must say it’s the best vehicle I’ve ever had. I’ve had it for a little over 3 years now. It’s incredible in the snow. Never had a problem. Also I’m nowhere close to the type of person they describe in this video. Lol
I was looking for a beater SUV in 2019. I considered the commander. The general consensus at the time is they are typical for Jeep at the time. Reliability is some of the lowest in the industry, but industry average in the early 2000s is way better than past decades. If you find a well kept commander, could be a great deal. Their resale is terrible so market price might be a steal. Im a Toyota fanboy but I won't pretend a 4runner or land cruiser with twice the milage is a better value at twice the price...
This is yet another Chrysler product where it can be determined to be shit or good based on the engine it has.
In the case of the Commander:
-Does it have the Hemi? It's good.
-No Hemi? POS.
Leightspeed in Australia we got them with the Mercedes 3.0 diesel turbo, they are super sweet motors and love a tune.
Did they put the inline 6 in them?
The 4.7 is a decent engine. Not as good as the Hemi, but not really bad either.
4.7L is an okay motor just not super powerful or efficient.
cale MacDonald The diesel was a 5 or 6 cylinder diesel turbo. The 3.0 6 was a v6 quad cam DT.
Really you could have just said "Jeep Commander: A Daimler Chrysler product" and ended the video
🔥🔥🔥
My 2006 four door Dakota is basically a pickup version of this jeep. Between 130 k miles over 190k , I had all the front ball joints replaced some of the front bushings ,the fronts springs , struts, a wheel bearing , one of the calipers , and the sway bar links. The pickup rear end just the shocks but the bed wheel wells rusted out like most this era rams.
Anything of that era was garbage I don’t care what anyone says used to own a Dodge truck of that era never again
Styled for the man who wished the XJ Cherokee could stick around around for as many decades as the SJ Wagoneer.
The Jeep SJW is my favorite.
I wish Jeep would have kept the XJ model. Just updated the motor. But the Commander is ugly and a rush attempt to appease the XJ owners.
And who wouldn't want that? Sadly like everything else Jeep these days it's the poser grandkid of the legit article grandpa.
I do tho
The XJ is bulletproof and timeless. Going up in price too because getting harder to find.
"Refuses to help like your school's registrar's office." I felt that
To this day, I still do not understand what a registrar was or what they did or did not do. I passed through there many times, and I believe I have permanent brain damage where each of those memories should be stored. It was like walking into a giant microwave aimed at my brain.

Only vehicle I’ve ever returned during a “cooling off” period.
This was Hank's car on breaking bad, I think he had the 5.7 Hemi. That's how I'll always think of it
Hank was absolutely the kind of guy who only heard the word "hemi" during the entire sales pitch.
*"They don't sell one in Purple, Marie!"*
“4 all-the-time” and “4 all-time” sounds like it needs an edit.
I thought he was fucking around, especially when he said you tow in neutral until I heard it correctly the second time lol
I still can’t hear it any way that makes sense. Could you please explain?
Gabriel Penner 3:25
@@TheScrubmuffin69 These jeeps are actually favored because they have manual transfer cases that you can put in neutral for towing behind an RV aka "dinghy towing". You can only do this with manual rear wheel drive cars and a handful of 4x4's.
3:16 talking about the fan, I think you completely missed the fact that if this has the "HD cooling" package which I think it does looking at the freeze frame; this thing also has a second hydraulically powered cooling fan that runs of the power steering pump pressure.
And that is most of what wrong with dodge, spend a bunch of money doing simple stuff like cooling fans in there own odd way, but build the interior outta trash can plastic, and wire the whole vehicle up with harbor freight quality harnesses and connectors.
Stop thinking my thoughts.
Where this was being designed during the Daimler ownership, this is now officially one of the world’s best trolling jobs. A HYDRAULICALLY OPERATED COOLING FAN???? That idea originated when two Mercedes engineers got ahold of some really good weed one night and….
“I have idea, ya? Let’s….*toke*….let’s call zose Chrysler dipshits and tell zem to…*toke*…oh…we design cooling fan zat runs hydraulically. And zose fuckers will probably build it!”
My late friend had one. The Jeep engine caught fire and exploded on his morning commute. I still miss him sometimes.
I mean, at least it was firing on all cylinders

Chrysler "Jeep": "Hey we heard you like the Cherokee XJ, YOU'LL LOVE THIS!"
Even though it has basically the same power, is pointlessly larger, is made almost entirely of plastic, has less ground clearance, is heavier, a worse engine, and a less comfortable interior!
It's almost like they were trying to recapture the business from those who loved the Cherokee but wanted something newer, despite how much worse it was.
Marketing ploy, what happens when accountants get a hold of the drawing board, for 200 Alex.
still have an 96 xj and its better than this.
The official car of "don't worry the Charger is coming soon."
The Charger came out in 2006, at the same time as the Commander.

Can't make this up.
These things are notorious for their electrical problems. We had one with the 5.7-liter Hemi. It famously broke down at the entrance to a gas station during hurricane Sandy. Jeep charged us 1200 dollars to replace the wiring harness only to have the problem reoccur. I joined an owner's group just to see if anyone was having similar problems. There were a lot. Apparently, the electronically adjustable seat would slice into the wiring when adjusted shorting out the computer and causing all hell to break loose: Horns, lights, windows, the works. The show would continue 'till the battery died. I warned them about Chrysler products. Unfortunately, nobody listened.
