Well that's about all I've got as choice right now. I can pick up a
later model v8 Grand but the one I spotted has some high milage on
her. But the V6s are more available and less milage.


The V6 in a Jeep was a not a good tower for me, the straight 6 in my
Grand was, and is much better, but I would still prefer the V8

Make sure you get a 4WD, at least around here it's needed as some of our
ramps are steep and get very slick.

I've got close to 200,000 miles on the Grand now, I bought it new in 95,
and it's still going very strong, some minor electrical problems due to
corrosion at the ends of wires, but that's the only real problems I've
had, besides replacing brakes, and two water pumps.
