The IT Nerd

When you think of the compact class of SUV’s, most vehicles in that class look like SUV’s, but they really can’t go off road in any serious way. That’s fine if you have no aspirations to touch dirt. But if you do want to go off road, you want something that can handle any possible condition that you could come across. Enter the Jeep Cherokee. It’s a vehicle that will take the kids to soccer practice as well as take you deep into the woods and back. Now let me deal with the elephant in the room. The looks. It doesn’t look like your father’s Jeep Cherokee: I’ll admit that looks are, shall we say unique. However, this is one of those vehicles that you have to see in person because my pictures will not do it any sort of justice. For all the buzz the look of the front end of the Cherokee seems to be generating online, it really is not that bad. In fact, I like it. Walk around to the back and the unique look continues. Take it from me. If you walk around the vehicle a few times slowly, you’ll find that the look is coherent. It really does work to make this SUV unique in good way. Now the Jeep Cherokee that I’m driving is the Limited trim level which comes with a V6, a real four wheel drive system, and a ton of technology. This is going to be one packed review. As usual, I’ll be posting a multi-part review that will cover the following sections:

• Engine, transmission, handling, fuel economy, and driving comfort
• Interior
• Technology in the vehicle
• Wrap up

As an aside, all the photos for this review will be taken with the LG G Flex Android based smartphone which was provided to me by Rogers and is exclusive to them. I will have a review on this phone on Friday. But in the meantime, let’s see what the Jeep Cherokee can do both on and off road.
