Any jeep (exept compass and patriot) is good offroad. some better that others but ALL good. In my opinion with a good setup the ZJ is one of the best.

Absolutely horrible. The only place a Grand Cherokee belongs is at the mall. As you can tell, I took a wrong turn

A Jeep will only do as well mudding as the tires and traction devices you have installed.

Off roading is 90% driver, 10% machine. The ZJ/WJ's though have some nice attributes stock though like coil sprung solid axles at both ends, very rare anymore.
