ImUrOBGYN Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 ^Correct. Unless of course, your wife is the breadwinner, and you have to take orders. http://i.imgur.com/O64uxdc.png My gf brings home most of the bread and I'm still the boss.

cstmg8 Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 The diesel is nice, my father in law got one a couple months ago. He says he gets 31-32 hwy. Kinda wish we'd have looked at one before getting our '14 GC. As for household income, I make what I consider to be pretty good money, especially if I count side work, but, my girl makes about 50% more than I do. I ain't mad at her! She's definitely a boss, just not my boss [emoji41] All depends on the people in the relationship, everyone contributes in different ways. For instance, "her income" has paid for much of our remodel materials, I've done every bit of the work myself, which would have cost at least that much. Together we've gained a good 60% in equity on our previously bank owned home. Buy her what she wants OP (within reason lol). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mallard Posted November 19, 2014 Report Share Posted November 19, 2014 Did you piss in a milk jug? Well, it was a HEMI Summit, so we had to stop for gas a few times. But I loaded the wife and kid in the back at night, he went to sleep in Ohio and woke up in Florida, and I didn't drive us into a ditch! Getting 30 mpg hwy in the diesel doesn't seem that hard. As I said before, I get 29 mpg doing 80 mph to the proving grounds and back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceGhost Posted December 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 Been reading some Jeep forums and apparently the diesels are pretty bad right now with this DEF injector issue. 14s are plagued with it, parts are on back order for a month or more usually. Guy just took delivery of his 2015 Summit Diesel, made it 122 miles before the error popped up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PRD2BDF Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 Over 7k miles on the ram right now including multiple towing trips, no issues so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceGhost Posted January 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 Ordered a Deep Cherry Red Overland Diesel 4x4 with Advanced Technology Package, rear Blue Ray system, Quadra-Drive II AWD, and block heater.

HotCarl Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 As for the original post, both my gf and good friend have Jeep GC's. Like someone said before, big on the outside but not so much on the inside. I really like them and have driven my gf's '12 GC Overland (gas) a few times and it was comfortable and solid. knowing on the baggage (literal not figurative) that comes along with a kid I would think they would be a bit small on the inside for one, let alone multiple kids. Either way, Sounds like a really nice Jeep you've set your mind on. Take some pics when you get it.... in the spring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caseyctsv Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 I got a Grand Cherokee for a rental in Dallas this week and was impressed. It drove really nice but there was no way it was big enough inside for how my family would use it. The LCD dash was pretty cool and I definitely liked the heated steering wheel - an Option you don't know you need until you have it. Overall it had a very solid feel and I thought it looked great.

SpaceGhost Posted January 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 well thats a tease Tell me about it, sucks we had to wait to even place an order until this week! Now we wait another 4-6 weeks.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way, Sounds like a really nice Jeep you've set your mind on. Take some pics when you get it.... in the spring We have been transporting kids in my STIs for 7 years, with the BlueRays in the back and extra room over the Subaru it's a win. We took a trip to City Museum in ST. Louis last year in the STI, and for 7 hrs in the car we were fine in it and it fit all our stuff for the weekend. Not sure what everyone hauls around with their kids constantly that needs a 3rd row or a Suburban for 4 people? We haven't run across it yet. With a 6800b tow package, this thing can tow a boat, car or camper, hell we could do one of the hitch storage solutions if we need it for a trip. I will say right now Diesel sucks compared to gas as Diesel is still $3 a gal. But I believe gas will be back up for summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
