Sound like a good deal?

06 commander 4.7 52k miles, leather seats, nav, dvd video in rear, tow package, powerseats with warranty bumper to bumper carrying it to 100k. for 20,457?
what ive checked on KBB and NADA seems like this is in the range they say but do suggest its a lil high mileage wise for the year..

how strong is the 4.7? I had a 4.0 xj for a long time and that engine was bullet prrof is this one just as reliable?

After 4 weeks of "typical" driving, We have been easy on the 07 Commander.. After selling out "late" 99 wrangler.. and checking the mileage upon ever fill up. We have discovered, (oddly) that the commander gets the same amount of gas usage and mileage as the wrangler..

So what took us so long in getting a commander?.. Lord knows.. But so far I do not have any regents in buying a user (well maintained Jeep) originally the jeep had 49,000 on it. Included in the package was all the bells and whistles..

However, We did not pay anything near or even close to what is listed in your above post. and we did opt for the extended warranty as well.. So yea the price you've been quoted and posted is way to high for a jeep that old and that many miles.

So I can't say for sure about a "Bullet Proof" engine.. because we are still in the testing phase. But going from a beat up old run down rattle trap which wasn't to comfortable on long trips to a large more comfortable, more towing capacity jeep.. is definitely a plus.. there are things we can do now that just wasn't possible when we had the wrangler..

You Pro dealing with a person or dealer who has heard that the Commander is not being made here in the states after 2010.. or so they say.. but instead the commander will move over to Europe and retain its good looks for a while under new management. Plus with this new move.. The commander will undoubtedly get a Diesel engine as to compete with other larger vehicles like the Land cruiser, Land rover and the Nissan Patrol.

So this person realized that the jeep will no longer be here.. thus you may see an increase in prices. (Product & demand)
