Mid size comparisons
Heres the side by side comparisons of the new 4Runner and other mid sized SUV's. It looks like the 4Runner would be the clear choice out of all 5 shown together.

I too would take the 4runner, but not from that comparison. The numbers aren't the whole story. Piece of mind, experiances with other brands, resale, and more awe big parts!

The Jeep sure falls short in the horsepower category. That I-6 in the Jeep has far less power than all the others and falls way short of the 245 HP of the 4Runner
Reliabilty is a given. Chrysler v. Toyota. hmmmmm....

So, like me previous post says: It's not all about the numbers, as they can usually be manipulated in anybody's direction.
Here is what I canged everything to.

I like the looks of the Grand Cherokee just fine and believe me, I don't think the 4R is some beauty queen but have you seen the two parked side by side?
The 4R has more ground clearance, the rear bumper is higher off the ground and the whole truck looks beefier than the Jeep. From the front the 4R kicks the Jeeps butt on looks alone (imo). Park them side by side and judge for yourself.
The only other thing I like about the Jeep is that SFA. The Jeep's V8 numbers might be up there with the I-Force but look at the torque curve to tell you the true tale of smoothness, pull and driveability. I-Force wins hands down.
