Best years for XJ, ones to avoid?

Sergio is a Canadian idiot. Did someone not tell him it was just a GC with a slightly different body?

Sergio is a Canadian idiot.

Pretty much my point.

Brock's just mad because his jap mobile failed him on his last trip to CO. Not being one to give up he's going to make the same mistake twice. Your commander will treat you well. 150k isn't terrible for vehicles these days.

Wtf are you rambling about?

Found this Commander nearby. Carfax shows a rear end collision though.

This group will without fail find something wrong with every vehicle decision buying decision ever made, hell if JUOT were Kelly Blue Book we'd all be walking. This vehicle will be around far past when I'm tired of looking at it, will serve it's purpose well. There's always a worse decision to make, I could have bought that Land Rover.

I liked ours pretty well, I was just advising something that's mechanically identical with better room and capabilities across the board. Not truly hating on it, just pointing out the flaws attempting to help, since I had one for nine years.

Good call on the 3.7L - don't want that beast to get away from you

Yeah 3.7l = massive fail. They only drove halfway decently with the 300 hp 4.7l or the 5.7l and the mpg difference between the 3.7l and 4.7l was negligible.

Shopping locally kinda limits one, if I found a similar deal on a Grand then I'd have gotten that,even almost bought a GMC Envoy the day before. Stuff doesn't rust too badly here, but people seem to treat there vehicles like dumpsters, other peoples dirt is just nasty. As for the 3.7, it'll be fine for my uses.

 

[John]

It's just so much less power for a 1 mpg difference in the city. Hwy= the same. Both V6 and V8 get terrible fuel economy. If I'm getting bad mpg, I want a V8.

That was 5 grand down the drain.
