Just bought a '03 GC Laredo

So, I am totally loving this Jeep for the last two weeks!!! (Coming from a Kia Spectra I dont have far to go in order to be impressed, but still).

It's a 2003, has 54k miles on it, one owner, garage kept, mint condition. I just really love this Jeep. Average gas mileage is about 18 mpg.

My husband and I had gone to several dealers because I originally wanted a Liberty but every dealer we went to had only 2WD, even though they advertised them as 4WD. At the end of a very long day, a salesman told us about a JGC that had just finished inspection and had not even been listed yet. We orignally looked at GGC's, until I saw one on the road and thought it was too big for me to drive since I had never even driven a truck before. Thats why we settled on a Liberty because they were a lot smaller. Well I test drove the JGC and it didnt feel huge or combersome so after my husband checking it out and haggling with the dealer, we got it.

Again, I know I am coming froma Kia, but I really love this Jeep lol. I will NEVER buy a little four door car ever again!!!

I browsed the forums and am still looking for some specific things/problems to keep an eye for. Having never driven a Jeep, truck, SUV, 4WD, etc, i'm looking for some pointers as well.

Thanks!

Welcome to Jeep! I've had 2 GC's, a 2000 and now a 2004. I think you'll love it - as most of us do.
