Default New Grand Cherokee

I have had Mine for about a week - I have an Overland. Managed to pick up a Charcoal one form the local dealer. They were bringing it in as a demo model. They did not get to use it as a demo. They have a base model Cherokee in at the moment - the really dark blue one - looks rather nice. I had chrome side steps and a tow bar fitted to mine. The tow bar is a bolt on, but the tongue is removable. One day I will learn how to use all of the electronics.

Make sure you get some pics up when you get it
Yes it was one they were using for a demo (albeit for one week) but I think it had only been out twice as it has only done about 30km. I don't think they are being used as demo's for to long at the moment to much demand. They also had a fully speced limited which was what we originally test drove that had done a few more Km's (charcol grey or it may have been black can't remember).

Will definatley post some pictures when I get it

Congratulations on the purchase. What were you driving previously to do a comparison? Does the tow bar look good or does it look like an after thought?
Good luck with the electronics, have you tried the adaptive cruise control?

I may have made a mistake.
I ordered a set of WeatherTech foot well mats. Very nice.
Thinking the foot wells would be the same LHD RHD.
The two mats are very different.
Can one of you lucky ones with a new GC take some photos of the foot wells?

Yep, if it's any consolation the rears will fit!

I was forced to get Aussie thief dealer mats for my WH.... as the ones available from Just for Jeeps etc were all for LHD.

LHD were cheap, around $50. I got stung $200 from memory.
