Going to change my tow car, tend to keep my vehicles for a long time, had a Sorento for a while now but fancy a change. Thinking of either a Grand Cherokee or Shogun, any thoughts on either of these cars? Have heard of rust problems with Shoguns and anyone who has either of these what fuel consumption are you getting? This isn't a deciding factor as the comfort and reliability are more important.

Thanx in advance

Was it really necessary to go beyond your first paragraph TW, or were you simply trying to be argumentative?

Was it really necessary for you to post at all, DD?

I used to tow with a 140PS 2WD 09 Kuga. Good 'middle of the road' car. NOT middle-lane, I hasten to add.

Grand Cherokee every time, you won't be disappointed. 3litre v6, 8 speed auto with tc and 250 bhp.

Shogun. basic 4 cyl 190 bhp and 5 speed auto.

Is yours a Grand Cherokee? It looks identical in the picture to our Cherokee (only 2.0l). Love ours, one our best towcars.

Do you know, that doesn’t bother me in the least. My days of needing a tow car are long gone. 👍🏻

So why do you still post on the towcar forum. this is the reply you put to DD post "Was it really necessary for you to post at all, DD?" We could say the same about yours
