The other reason it looks that way is purely functional: they lifted the new-for-'05 Grand Cherokee's already angular body and wedged in a third-row seat, then raised the second row a bit higher than the first and the third above the second, stadium-style, so everyone can see out front. Then they folded the sheetmetal crisply back around this expanded interior package. The resulting brick-shaped seven-seater, Jeep's first ever, is just two inches longer but a substantial four inches taller than Grand Cherokee on the same 109.5-inch wheelbase.



The $27,985 (including destination) base Commander's cabin has a new textured hard plastic upper dash with large, round air vents and 16 (count 'em) actual Allen-head screws, echoing the exterior's "bold, rugged, constructed" aesthetic, holding it on. Continuing that theme, sextets of fake Allen heads encircle the round chrome gearshift knob and the steering wheel hub.



The second row splits 40/20/40, the standard third row 50/50, and both fold flat for cargo. To accommodate the stadium seating, the roof steps up 3.15 inches over the middle row. Other standard equipment includes all-terrain tires on 17-inch cast aluminum wheels, power front windows, heated power mirrors, eight-way power driver's seat, air conditioning, cruise control, AM/FM/CD six-speaker audio, and tire pressure monitoring warning. Cloth seats are standard, leather optional.



The $36,280 Limited adds posh leather seats with heated fronts and four-way power passenger seat, leather-wrapped steering wheel, dual-zone automatic climate control with rear HVAC, power-adjustable pedals, six-CD in-dash changer with MP3, SIRIUS satellite radio, power sunroof, twin tinted "CommandView" skylights, and a tire-pressure monitoring display. On the outside, its grille, front fascia, body-side moldings and roof rail cross bars are chrome, as are the pair of large vertical grab handles on the rear liftgate to assist rooftop cargo access.

Poo on you guyz. I had a 96 Cherokee 4.0 and loved it. I like the Commander, but I am going to get a Liberty V6 instead. Jeep has always done the old ugly-but-tough looking vehicles, and pulled it off. The Commander is no different. Can't wait to get my Jeep....
 
bunch of those on the roads around here...had a couple for a marketing event as well. all in all..."meh", compared to the rest of what Chrysler/Jeep are doing right now.
 
I like it, on the inside it just screams Chrysler Pacifica, but with a go anywhere attitude. (yes I live in an area where my vehicles actually do go offroad)
 
Almost no seating room in the 3rd row.

Ive seen quite a few of these in person, and I'm not quite sure what I think of them.

We have the '05 Liberty. Good vehicle -- we've been very happy. Good power, good sound system, better than expected carrying capacity with the seats folded down. Only complaint is that the rear cargo area is a little small if you are traveling with suit cases, but the roof rack works quite well. 🙂
 
Theres a small something in which this car appeals to me. though Im not fond of Jeeps I think it looks alright. Rather like a beefed up Cherokee.

I would never be interested in it though
