Hi tommo I have a Jeep Grand Cherokee it pulls my twin axle van without any problem we get about 12.5 litres per 100 ks that's going from Perth to Sydney and return it's very comfortable and pulls like a train so we are happy with it off round au next year regards gazz
Bought a Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland three years ago. Loved it. Towed the van beautifully. Traded it on a new one this year because I wanted the eight speed box. Tows even better than the other one. Highly recommended.
What specs are the diesels ? Seems they have stepped there game up in recent models . Some early issues where silly electrical . But frustrating to owners if not fixed properly ..
Thanks everyone it been a big help I have decided to go with my hart and get one I am thinking of the limited will post when I get one should be mid September / October
Nice to see a site that doesn't condemn Jeeps. My 2013 GC is great, tows our 2.5 tonne Supreme caravan easily, averaged 13.9 l/100km on our last 12,500km excursion into SA and NT (Mt Ive station, Chambers Pillar, Oodnadatta, Uuru, kings Canyon, Palm Valley etc) Just turned over 60k km, have replaced the original tyres but no problems to date.

If you do go the Limited, consider swapping the 20" wheels for the 18s. Apparently they are better for heavy duty work and if you'd like to go offroad. I didn't think of that when I bought mine.
I did the same when I ordered my new Jeep. Dealer swapped the 20"s for the 18"s from a Laredo he had in the showroom. No charge, no problem. The choice of 20" tyres is a bit limited compared to 18". I believe 18"s wear better too.
