LGT Owners, what car will you drive next?


Recommended Posts

Got a ride in a Grand Cherokee to the dealer's "other" lot to look at some SRTs, and with the passenger seat far enough up to let my kids + wife sit in the back, I was SUPER cramped in the front. Kept banging my left knee on the dash. And that was after turning nearly sideways to try to fit in. Sitting normally was a total no-go.

 

Based on that, would never even consider a GC..

We had a GC rental for 5 weeks while our cars were getting some hail damage repaired and didn't find it cramped at all. Im 6'3 258lbs and had no issue fitting me, my wife , the pup and the odd friend here and there (this was prebaby). The cabin has about the same space as the LGT ( maybe slightly less) plus the nice big hatch.

Why is that? Its running on the same powerplant the SRT Grand Cherokee has for many many years.

 

Yeah, I wouldn't trust Chrysler powertrains in general as far as I could throw them. And they're heavy as f***, so I can't throw them far. :lol:

I am watching all the old episodes of top gear...yet again.

 

They did an RS4 review.

 

I remembered how much I loved the V8 rumble and manual transmission and the ride. I had test driven a used one about 5 years ago before a subaru was ever on my radar.

 

I would love to daily one of those even with the added maintenance and repairs. There are faster cars but my God if it didnt feel darn near perfect.

There's a few guys on here that have already made the switch from their LGT to the Stinger .

 

It seems like the Stinger will be the natural progression for alot here, unless the next gen Legacy GT is good.

As much as I love the SRT Cherokee and Durango, I've heard nothing but horror stories. My buddies GC Summit Diesel spends more time at the dealer than on the road. I still want a SRT GC badly though. And godamn if Destroyer Grey and B5 Blue aren't the greatest colors ever painted onto a sedan.

One of my friends had the previous Gen Jeep GC SRT8; he averaged 13mpg on it. For the amount my miles I drive, I couldn't justify buying a car with that low of fuel economy for my daily driver. For 2nd summer car yes, but not my daily.

I work from home. Bring on the low MPG!!

 

Not to mention my LGT doesn't get the best fuel economy now with the rebuild, mods and protune. What's losing 3 more miles per gallon ?

You could park it anywhere you want. Curbs wouldn't make a bit a difference. You can park it like an A-hole but at the end of the day people would still admire it eventhough subconsciously they'd think you're a prick.

You'll be "that guy's :lol:

Just got back from driving an SS 1LE 6 speed. I absolutely love it. We were talking #s for about an hour, and finally got an offer that is really close to what I was hoping for. Seriously considering it if I can get a good price for the LGT. I want $12K, Stage 2 shortblokc with 2K miles, 6 speed, JDM front end brand new respray on the whole car. I doubt I'll get 12K but if I get 10 i'd prob walk away from it.
