What Grand Cherokee?

[Heisenberg]

I've never owned a Jeep, but am looking to get a 2005/6 GC 6cyl diesel.

My reasons are

1. The merc motor
2. The QDII drive system

I want an up-spec model, but I am having difficulty working out the difference between a Limited, Limited Navigator and 75th Anniversary model.

Can anyone explain the difference between these variants?

Also, any glitches to look for when buying one?

Navigator was a limited issue of the Limited/Laredo (pun on pun)
included sat nav, side steps, nudge bar, roof rack, tow bar and weather protector for an extra $4500.

The 65th anivarsary edition had:
" Power sunroof
Monochromatic exterior appearance with body colour door handles and rear license plate brow
Bright chrome bodyside moldings and tow hooks
Fog lamps
Cargo net
Unique 17-inch Ronin aluminum wheels with gray accents
Unique cloth seats with embroidered Jeep 65 logo
Unique interior bezels Unique floormats with Jeep 65 logo
Unique center console accents
AM/FM 6-CD/MP3 radio
Unique Jeep 65th Anniversary badge"

so both are special editions of a Limited, one with Navigation Pack and useable touring extras, the other (65th) more dress ups.

Personally Id be looking for a Navigator I like these rigs and am on the lookout for a good one down here.

65th Anniversary model was a Lerado with some limited bits & embroidery on the seats.

What the limited got over the Lerado
duel climate control
on dash tyre pressure reading
shiny wheels
chrome side trim & grille
chrome accent on dash gauges
fake wood look trim
rear seat centre arm rest
Heated leather seats
Leather steering wheel
fog lights
Boston Acoustic amplified 6 Disk stereo
Power drivers seat with auto memory setting
Rain sense wipers
& probably other useless crap

Navigator Pack
floor mats
dicky non updatable GPS stuck to the top of the dash
side steps
steel factory bash plates
tow bar
roof rail cross bars
slimline window wind deflectors & headlight covers
Mine is a Limited Nav pak & didn't have a nudge bar (factory tow point still in place so it was never fitted)

Glitch's!!!........... Its a Jeep
make sure low range works (recall about this)
bushings on front diff wear out & as a result the front tail shaft CV fails due to incorrect pinion angle. Hold your foot on the brake & move the shifter between D & R & listen for a thud (diff movement).
