I decided to sell my TBSS. After the theft it never felt the same to me. So, i went and traded it in on a 2013 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland. They gave me a great price on the TBSS.

That thing got a HEMI?!?!? Hahaha

Seriously though.. Does it? :) Looks like they made those jeeps wider like ford did the Explorer or is it an illusion? More elbow room than the Trailblazer?

Yes it has the 5.7 Hemi.

The Explorer has more interior room and a 3rd row seat. I didn't care about that. I was going to wait for the 13 Explorer Sport but with only 5,000lbs towing capacity I couldn't do it.

It feels bigger then the Trailblazer. It has a WAY nicer ride though. I was surprised I only gave up 35hp.
 
Thanks.

I am enjoying the nicer ride and all the gadgets this thing has. The cooled seats are nice. I still can't get used to the RF key stuff. I still pull it out of my pocket like I need it to start.
 
Congrats. I've driven quite a few of them and I agree it is a much nicer ride than the tbss which I also have. My only gripe is that they get expensive when you option them up. That is a nice color as well.
 
Congrats! Sucks about the TBSS. I have an 08 and I know I should part with it. Mileage getting higher. But its so much fun!. lol

Pretty much everything is getting up there in price. I plan on buying a truck in the next year or two, and both Ford/GM want over $30k for a standard cab short box 4x4 with a v8. Just seems crazy to me.

Thanks. I originally ordered a Limited but it never came in. There was something worng with it and the transfering dealer wouldnt say what. So, they gave me a hellava deal on the Overland.

Black will always be my favorite color, but the suck so much keeping clean. I just couldn't do it again.

Thanks. I really loved the TBSS. It was the first truck I have ever driven over the 2-3 year lease. I lease trucks and get a new one when the lease is up or before. I bought it off my lease in Jan 11. I drove it for 5 years. The gas mileage really sucked though. I was putting $90 in it every 4 days. That got old.....fast.
