Hemi vs. Pentastar opinions?
Looking at the new Grand Cherokee. Intended use is mainly suburban, with town and highway use, some country roading, and little to no rock face climbing or extreme stunts. No foreseen towing, but lots of gravel, ice, and of course, March in the holler and other similar excursions. Little stop and go traffic in town.
Concerns, beyond upgrade price, are long term durability, maintenance costs, and resale. Additional fuel cost doesn't bug me, due to 1000 yard stare from my low efficiency V8 coupé.
Experience and suggestions welcome. Thx!
