Merging the XH Commander and WH Grand Cherokee Sections of the Forum

Appreciate the imput none the less.

Thanks for responding Jimmy.

I don't quite understand what you meant by your post though??

Both the WH and XH have been around since 2005-2006, so I assume you are not referring to them?

If you are referring to the WK2 Grand Cherokee - they have been around since 2011 and at times have been the best selling mid-size 4WD in the Country - knocking the Prado off it's perch after dominating for so many years. The number of new WK2 owners out there is reflected in the amount of forum traffic they have generated in the WH/WK2 GC section. I would say active WK2 members outnumber WH members by 2 to 1 or more in that section now and this difference is growing by the day (You can ignore all my threads trying to figure out my swirl motor problem - which is a case in point for my suggestion to merge sections!).

I just fail to see the point in having 2 models in the same section together that have absolutely nothing at all in common (other than a model name), whilst you have 2 models which are virtually identical (apart from cosmetics) in separate sections?

If you are looking for assistance in getting this up and running, I would be glad to help. Clarky has already offered his assistance and I'm sure there would be others willing to chip in also.

It would be great if you could please reconsider my suggestion. From all the comments received to date, it has strong support from the forum members that would be affected by the change.

Cheers,
Hanna

Hear Hear. Just stating my support for Hanna's motion, Jimmy.

They have been here long enough, no longer considered 'new model'. Just an old bag like me..... (God damn new bags!!)

Sounds good to me. Makes sense being the same vehicle basically.

Aww shucks, alright. I'll see what I can do. May have to break into his garage for you Hanna.

For sure! As long as that means the sections are being merged?!

Wow there sonny your the one who asked for pic's
Good things come to those who wait, we just need to be patient, work together with what we already have & show the viability of a combined section

To get the ball rolling when you start a new thread in GC or Commander sections add WH & XH in the "TAG" section at the bottom of the post, this will make it easier to find when you do a search.

I got a pic of the white WH beast but.....in the dark and didn't turn out well.

Stalking again today before he takes out an AVO on me. I'll blame Hanna.
