He currently drives a Grand Cherokee Trailhawk but plans on going with a Grand Cherokee Overland Summit or X5M next.
The driving feel is more important to me than the styling. I'm not so concerned about the brand stigma, I get that now. I feel BMW has watered down some aspects to cater to the masses. I miss that stiff, tight feel (here comes Now Rudy). I have heard from others that MB is cushier than BMW and their infotainment and nav suck. We'll see. I also hate the electric steering but I guess that is now across all brands.

Ahhh, thank you.
