Reviews Summary

One model year after a complete redesign, the 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee truly offers something for everyone. The lineup expands with a new Off-Road Package for the base Laredo trim, a new luxury-oriented Overland trim, and a new performance-tuned SRT-8 model that has more than 400 horsepower and screams to 100 kilometres per hour in roughly five seconds. Jeep also makes stability control standard on all 2006 Grand Cherokees.

Reviews Summary

For nearly 30 years, the Ford Explorer has settled into the American lexicon like Cheerios. We've gobbled up millions of them, from the rock-crawling Eddie Bauers of the 1990s to the brand-new Ford Explorer ST that can take down sports cars. The 2020 Explorer brings an all-new chassis, cranks up the technology, and introduces hybrid and high-performance powertrains in a space the size of a small living room. The Explorer's also getting very expensive while other automakers catch on to Ford's winning formula—for a lot less money.
