From Royal Ford's review of a new Jeep:
Average SUV pales next to newer, better
By Royal Ford, 4/20/2003
There are cars that, as you drive them, grow on you.
The Subaru Baja, Infiniti M45, Hyundai Santa Fe, and Kia's Sorento and Sedona come to mind as recent rides that have had this effect on me. From the funkiness of the Baja, the brute muscle car strength of the M45, to the basic quality at great prices of the Santa Fe, Sorento, and Sedona, there was an inherent and growing sense of value as I drove each.
Then again, there is the occasional car that grows ''off'' you. You are expecting certain things: power, luxury, funkiness, but get something else: bad ride, wheezing engine, cheap appointments. I'm thinking of the Mercury Marauder (failed muscle car) or Saab 9-5 (much in need of upcoming update) here.
Add to that list the Jeep Grand Cherokee. Here's a 10-year-old SUV badly in need of a serious update..........
