Anything older than 2009 is going to be murder to finance, and I don't have the liquid cash to buy it outright considering the recent land purchase.
I'm also going to be very VERY reticent to get into any Japanese brands again. I've only owned Nissan and Infiniti, so far, but they are horrible and I would never own another one. I'm trading vehicles as much because I need to as to just get rid of this Nissan. Hate the cheap construction and poor reliability and all the issues they have.
Every Grand Cherokee owner I have talked to of the newer models LOVES theirs. All the Nissan owners I talk to in "real space" have been very displeased with poor quality/reliability, except for a few XTerra owners. The XTerra is a consideration, but it's not as refined as the jeep, or as capable, and costs a similar amount.
I'm just very leery of the Japanese brands because of my experience with Nissan and Infiniti being so cheaply made and having so many issues. I'd consider a Toyota, but they seem very down on features/power compared to American vehicles of similar years, and they cost more to boot.
