Picked it up on Thursday. It was a suprise for Mrs. Dog. 
Only 120 miles on it, but the 4.7L V8 is really nice. Can't wait for the breakin. The MPG is nasty
right now.

Yeah it does fit. I have never needed to, or wanted to TOW anything. But the other options I wanted for her, left me with the factory installed hitch and harness.

In a couple of years they will level off, and I'll look into it again. Besides, my bride loves her Grand Cherokees. This is #3.

Drove a Highlander. Very nice again, but it didn't come up to the level of the Jeep and MDX. The RX300 was not in the running do to the fact that she doesn't like the styling at all.
ML320, with recent quality reports being negative. I decided I would be better off with the Jeep.
The number one factor!!! We had 4 months left on the other Jeep's lease. If I bought a new now, they would waive the payments and penalties with regards to getting out early.
So I got out of the other one with 3 months left on it.

i would do a little research on your jeep there.
i heard from 98-01 that jeeps have had serious recalls because the tranny would just go in reveerse in the middle of driving or something like that.
Maybe thats why you got a good deal
well hope you arent one of the many with that problem.

Quadra-Drive powertrain has been a problems since it's introduction in '99. Most complaints are due to excessive noise, both in the rear diff, and the rear axle. There was a redesign for 2002. Let's hope it's fixed.

rock dog, my lease on my 99 jeep GC is up in 2 months.
I know they have like $2500 cash incentive and a $1200
lease loyality anything else? If you don't mind me asking
term of lease and monthly payment? i can't believe they
let you walk out of the lease, are you sure they didn't roll
it into your new payment??
PS I've been wanting to get a MDX but the wife wants
a Jeep, go figure???
