I drove one of these when the work bus broke down. I had to rent one, and it was about a 7-hour drive to pick them up. It was a fantastic car, and I have missed it already.
Amazing how quickly your channel has zoomed to the top of car reviewers, at least for me!
Agreed, look forward to watching it every morning!!!
I have a 2023 Grand Wagoneer III. If you compare the standard Wagoneer against the Suburban, Navigator, etc, I agree that it won't win in most scenarios for most people. But comparing the Grand, for me, at least, it wins without question in nearly every category...though some of it is of course personal taste.
That makes one of you 🤣 enjoy your bus
The Grand also starts at over 90k
Grand Wagoneer competed against the Navigator and Escalade.
I rented one for a week that also included illuminated interior door panels, speed sensitive adjustable suspension, and the sound system is simply amazing! Wouldn't hesitate to buy one if it was $10,000 cheaper :-)
I’d buy it if I made enough. I only make 25 bucks an hour. But I have a family lol.
I like the front, side views but the back lacks a rear fin/spoiler to add character.
highly recommend you start demonstrating how it is to park. yes we eant to know how it drives but we also want to know how it is to park. turning view over hood, the length of the vehicle
Will the 3.0 be in the Wrangler for 2025?
Nothing is wrong with this suv material is about the same on other manufacturers only thing wrong is the price but other than that it’s a good product
And the design inside and out
All that money for Jeep reliability? Suburbans are always top picks for durability and reliability. Time will tell.........
"These people have no sense of what's happening around them." Welcome to most people's complete disregard for situational awareness...
Aagghh you didnt actually show the seats folding up and down! There were folded down seats when you opened the door and then you cut straight to you sitting in the third row!
77k with no exterior power folding mirrors
I like it 👍🏿
nice,, mileage is nasty of course lol
А ещё говорят что мы на Урале тараторим😅
Unfortunately Jeeps are just plastic PoS these days. Just rode in a Grand Wago and they don’t even ride that well.. Not impressed at all
Mine I tested rode smooth as butter
Nice🇸🇦
Can’t even put a V8 in this?
The new hurricane engine has more HP than their V8 hemi 🤦🏾♂️
I'm sorry my 9:56 min don't show any compares between Wagoneer x Suburban, wtf this people do this waist of time of people?
I sat in one of these at a local dealer while having my truck serviced. I found it really cramped in there, with really laggy tech, and it's just way too busy. Whomever was in charge of design just had too many ideas and nobody to pare them down to something reasonable, or remotely good looking. I'm 6'2, so maybe smaller people won't find it cramped, but for a truck this size there's just no reason for it to be that claustrophobic. Unfortunately, I've found the same thing on Ram trucks, particularly if they have a sunroof.
The Wagoneer is definitely nowhere near as good as a Suburban. Not even close. The seats are undersized, uncomfortable, and feel really pretty cheap. The engine is another dog, like the Pentastar V6 they keep trying to put into everything, in line with Stelantis' inexplicable quest to drop all V8s from their lineup. And the price is frankly nauseating for what you get. So, yeah, a hard pass from me anyway. I mean, if you're gonna pay Suburban or Escalade money, you might as well get one of those and be happier with your purchase in the long run.
Interesting. I sat in two of them (base and series III) while my truck was having oil changed at the dealer and took the base model out for a spin since it’s the same motor in all of them. I thought the motor was much much more responsive than the hemi that’s in my 2022, 1500. I don’t know why you called it a dog, but the Hemi is a dog.
I thought I was crazy until I read your comments, but you are right I am almost 6’2” and for some reason this car felt somewhat cramped and the seats smaller than competitors. I thought the steering wheel was beautiful. I like the digital display but it seems expensive for what you get. also, unless you move up to the grand Wagoneer, you can’t get power folding outside mirrors and you can’t get the rearview camera mirror. I also thought the round view mirrors weren’t as good as the competition. I would probably buy one if there were a screaming deal on it, but I’m definitely going to check out the new Tahoe and the new expedition when it comes out.
@@Ryan2022 - My current truck is a 2015 Ram 1500 crew cab 4x2 with the 5.7 hemi. It is by no means a dog. The thing absolutely flies down the road at the mere hint of pressure on the throttle. No mods, tunes, or any of that crap. Just a stock hemi. I'm surprised to hear you say your hemi is a dog. Maybe they messed with the shift mapping for the 2022s or something, but the 5.7 hemi is a performance engine and it's done great for me.
In contrast, the engine they've put into the Wagoneer boasts good numbers, but lacks the torque and higher RPM-range performance compared to the V8. They're chasing EPA numbers, not trying to make a good truck, so this is what we get. My ride in the Wagoneer left me feeling like it was sluggish and under-powered, which is why I compared it to the Pentastar V6, which has the same lack-luster performance. I guess we had different experiences, but that's why car buying is such a personal, subjective thing.
I definitely agree with just about everything you said in the 2nd half of your response. Some bits of the interior design were really nice, and then some bits weren't. And they definitely seem to be trying to nickel-and-dime people with regard to certain options only being available on certain models.
To be fair, I checked out a $120K+ Escalade the other day and couldn't believe how cheap the interior felt. Looked cool, but man there was some low-end stuff in there. And I'd swear the rear seats were recycled from a bad minivan or something. They were like planks with fancy vinyl seat covers. GM has definitely done better in the past. The new Navigator redesign looks pretty nice, though. I suspect the Expedition won't be far off in quality. I've owned one before and it was pretty damned good. Probably the best riding truck I've ever owned was a 2001 GMC Yukon XL 2500 with the 8.1L Vortec.
Let me know what you think of the Tahoe and Expedition.
Stellantis wants the Wagoneer to be a brand instead of just being a Jeep luxury vehicle
They made a mistake. Was talking to a sales lady about this on Dec 28, 2023. The entire dealership had to be remodeled. Stellantis sent a training team to instruct them on snacks and amenities and how to handle rich customers who want a $125,000 grand wagoneer. This is a more rural area of a southern state. They are Used to more easy going customers like myself. She said selling a wagoneer takes hour and hours longer even days longer with customers nit picking every little item like a Lexus dealership. What Jeep should do is ditch the base model and have series II, III and the grand wagoneer as the top trim with the exclusive higher power Hurricane and all the other trimmings. Adjust the pricing to reflect more of reality and go from there. If you keep the Base model then drop the MSRP By 10k
Came across an article saying the same thing, and that they want to make jeeps more upscale as well to also be a semi luxury brand. To refine the interior and other offerings. I had to laugh. These automotive execs get paid so much and still miss the mark. 120K+ for a jeep that owned by this corporation is just ridiculous. My wife had a jeep and i'll never purchase another one. had to change the transmission times I mean seriously, is this really a better offering than the Expedition and Suburban whove been doing this for a while now? Hell i'll take new Lexus gx over this everyday of the week. Have they fine tuned the handling on this thing considering how big and boat like it is? Theres a reason Jeep, Dodge Chrysler and Rams are the slowest selling vehicles right now, the mark ups at the dealerships are absolutely criminal, which in turn affects the manufacturers output. This is what happens when you just see a market and think everyone has money to burn. Like who approved this?
Come on, man, cut your hair and trim your beard! The way you wear them now does not do you justice...
Come on, man, no one cares about your derogatory comments (or your ridiculous response to my reply of your ignorant comment). How exactly does one "wear" a beard or haircut........sad 😥
LOL
Gay
Not much tech in this car , no front or side cameras , laggy infotainment , no moon roof look sun it up a lot of no no and no.
Hard pass. looks like a unattractive box.. and will wait for the 25 Tahoe/Suburban or the refreshed Expedition.
I don’t mind it, but prefer Tahoe / Suburban / Cadillac . I would imagine this thing will be in the shop a fair bit, and diesel is expensive to maintain
Precisely. Refreshed 2025 GMC Yukon for me
@@Brian_Eugene_Lee i need to research this diesel - my last one (Porsche Cayenne) was nice but VERY expensive to maintain
this is brand unto itself which im sure theyll have hiccups that havent shown up yet. Stellantis who merged with fiat who were responsible for the design of former jeeps had extremely shitty transmissions in the jeeps as well as their fiat abarths. they're trying to fuse Italian luxury and American ruggedness and bulldoze the market. I see alot of these on the street as rental vehicles so i guess theyre getting their sales that way. I cant see the consumer who has 100k to burn grabbing this thing.
Expeditions are trash with their cam phaser issues and trannys failing.
Nothing about this vehicle is attractive. I walked by one that was running last night. The engine sounds like trash....
That plastic under the hood looks as cheap and junky as black plastic possibly can.
This is absolute overly priced hunk of 2024 junk.
Take your $100,000 and buy an original restored Jeep Wagoneer.
What is wrong with Jeep plastics? They are thin and creaky on my Wrangler, too
It’s very plain. It should have a V8 Hemi and not a V6. I don’t see it being a suburban killer.
Why? I have a HEMI in my 1500. Slow. The hurricane is much more responsive
The hurricane engine has more HP.
This isn’t 1980.
It’s an I6, not a V6.
@@AnontheGOAT Unless it’s a Cummings I6 it’s not a Suburban killer
Whats thatcan Chevrolet Suburban Tahoe Cadillac subtruck 😢😢😢😢thats not an Jeep wagoneer 😢😢😢😢😢1960--1992😮😮😮
This new “hurricane” might run good when new but is gonna be plagued with issues as they age ! Way too small and too much technology! I’ve been a mechanic for 35 years and have seen it with other manufacturers . 😞
Sure
Only way this is competitive with Tahoe is if it sells at a huge discount to Tahoe. It looks horrible.
Terrible review
I'd take the Suburban/Yukon XL and even the Expedition over this.
Suburban better.
over priced
Who would want to drive something this hideous. Hard pass !!!
Pass. Luxury price for a people mover. These OEM’s need to go bankrupt I think.
What does oem mean
@tylerbuck9347
The manufacturers, in this case, Jeep and Stellantis
