It's not just maintenance though. It's also repair. I had my brakes and rotors replaced. At no cost. And I got a loaner.

That job, even at an indie mech, would have cost a ton of money. And the service at the dealer preserves resale value. It's a very nice perk and one that would make me buy a BMW again if I'm ever back in the market for a sedan.

Yes I got a loaner GLK every time I went in. I got free pads and rotors under warranty once too but I didn't have free maintenance.

I am just saying on a Diesel SUV like I had, the total cost over ownership is lower before I add in the maintenance. Even if I added a rental car for each service visit it would even get close.

If the Euro companies charged the same service rates the do across the pond it would be fine bit they screw you on everything.

Eg. Ad blue tank is 2/3 full (I drive a lot of highway at higher speeds). What does the Mercedes dealer do, charge you for the entire tank and there is no ad blue bottle left in the car afterwards.

When it really gets down to it a JGC will cost less to own an operate. I worked it out, in 5 years of regular maintenance on an ML I can buy a new 8 speed tranny for the JGC. Maintenance should out weight replacement parts.

Like I said: whatever.


I'm not sure why you feel the need to be the forum police considering you post more off topic crap than anyone around here. But the discussion was on the relative value of the luxury brands. Rather than become an echo chamber of "oh, the euros are so expensive to maintain" I thought I'd bring to bear some other real experience to the table. That said, my BMW is for sale because it is a high maintenance vehicle. Sure the maintenance is free, and it is no matter how you want to spin it, I just need a different vehicle right now.

You want to talk to a customer retention rep, not a sales rep. The best way to do this is to say you are canceling do to the high cost.

Let's just post another off-topic that gets people's undies in a bunch. How about this.

Is anyone else really ticked off that there isn't flipper glass on the '14's?
 
#6,616 ·
How much usage was most of us getting from the flipper??
If you ever try to haul something that won't quite fit inside, the flipper glass can come in quite handy. Trying to tie the hatch shut is a pita and not very secure.

Alas, poor flipper glass (and front ELSD) we'll miss you.

Well then, that's settled.. Challengerdude has spoken.

(Please don't waste your time offering a counterpoint ppl. :smh:)
 
#6,611 · (Edited)
It's starting to get choppy in here. Jeep had better hurry up with that CRD... In another month this might be a tough neighborhood to hang out in!
 
#6,614 ·
It was determined months ago that the CRD will be the only 2014 GC to get flipper glass... Front and rear!!

That's the real reason for the delay!

Dude, the only troll who has been on this forum the entire time I have been a luker/member has been you. I don't think you've offered up any decent advice or insight on anything. Your comebacks are awful and usually people just decide to ignore you until you blast someone else.

If you're not going to help someone who is worrying about Ordering and Pricing information in this thread, why even post?

If someone else is trying to give insight on their experiences with another brand be it good or bad, if it is helping someone else decide on a Jeep or not, I believe it is helpful.

I apologize to everyone else for continuing the off-topic nature of the thread, but it is getting ridiculous. Every one of CHALLENGER's posts is like a train wreck. Awful, but I couldn't look away...

For those awaiting production, you might find this article interesting.

AutoBlog

Most domestic automaker assembly plants traditionally take a couple of weeks off during the summer. The shutdowns give each plant time for much needed repairs and maintenance, and in some cases, help better align production with demand. Not this year, though, as demand for many models is outstripping what Ford, Chrysler and General Motors plants can produce.

Ford has announced that it will shorten its annual summer shutdown for most North American plants from two weeks to one. The shorter shutdown will increase the carmaker's annual North American production by 40,000 units on top of the 200,000 extra units that it was already planning to produce this year versus last. Automotive News reports that Ford produced 2.8 million vehicles on this continent in 2012, and that output this year has already increased 13 percent through April.

Chrysler, meanwhile, is also operating at full tilt and plans to run some plants through the summer with no shutdown at all. Those not getting a break include Jefferson North where the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango are assembled, Toledo North that will assemble the new Cherokee, and Conner Avenue, home of SRT Viper production. Other assembly plants will be down for a single week, while all of Chrysler's engine and transmission plants except one in Indiana will continue operating with no shutdown this summer.

Lastly, GM is keeping its cards closer to its chest. The automaker declined to comment to Automotive News about its summer production plans, instead saying that the company "does things a bit differently" now compared to the past, tying plant shutdowns to model life cycles and market demand rather than traditional annual timetables.

OK,:threadhijack:(not that the Aussies didn't do it last week)

I will also take responsibility for taking this off the rails but I think we can stop talking about this now...:slapfight:

Temerarius said the most important thing... we are all entitled to our opinion but none of us are entitled to force that opinion on someone else.

Can we go back to compalining about the price increase on the Hemi or maybe :wtf: is Happening the th GD CRD and the EPA?

This was all a little silly so I will be the first one to :giveup:

THX!

Let's get back to the flipper glass. I use the flipper glass at least 4 times/day. It's super convenient for me so I'm bummed out about it. Does BMW have flipper glass? Maybe I'll buy that instead.
