But everything doesn’t come up roses for this rock crusher. The Grand Cherokee’s fuel economy continues to disappoint. Jeep estimates that base two-wheel-drive models will net 16/23 mpg city/highway, while 4WD models will net 16/22. These figures are quite low compared to most SUVs, although they’re above average compared to purely off-road vehicles.

Noises in the parking lot only could just be a limited slip clutch (posi-traction) noise. In this case try putting an additive designed for the clutches. Ask for limited slip friction modifier or posi additive. Driving the vehicle some will allow the modifier to soak into the clutches and hopefully prevent them from grabbing.

Of course, that may be where the new and improved Grand Cherokee belongs. In fact, reviewers say higher trims of the new Jeep are so nice on the inside that they rival the Land Rover LR4, which starts at a whopping $16,000 more. CNET concludes that the Grand Cherokee “has few equals in the luxury SUV segment for off-road prowess. Land Rover seems the only rival, but its models come at luxury prices."

2011 Ford Fiesta won't hit American streets until early 2010

Web 2.0 marketing notwithstanding, the Fiesta is a substantial, grown-up car. If Ford can keep pricing for the U.S. model, due here next spring, within range of the spunkier but less well-mannered Honda Fit, it will have a rare commodity: a car suited to both Facebook and the real world.

For decades, small economy cars from American carmakers have been about as desirable as a cold hamburger. Overall build quality, upkeep costs, reliability and longevity -- the most important factors in this segment -- were points of embarrassment for Escorts, Neons and Cavaliers. But with the Euro-bred 2011 Ford Fiesta (which slots under the Focus to become Ford's new entry-level model), the U.S. looks to have something on the economy car menu as mouth-watering as an In-N-Out Double-Double.

The 2011 Ford Fiesta is an all-new subcompact available in hatchback and sedan body styles

As the Fiesta cruised confidently down the highway, quiet and stable despite a short fifth (top) gear, we reflected on our journey. We hadn't filled stadiums with young admirers, and the only person willing to towel off the Fiesta for the camera had been the stocky assistant manager of a local car wash. But both the town and the car, it turns out, offer more sophisticated thrills.


The Fiesta is Ford's new subcompact car, intended to compete with models like the Honda Fit, Nissan Versa and Toyota Yaris. The 2011 Fiesta sedan and four-door hatchback are Americanized versions of Europe's second-best-selling car, the current generation of which has been sold since 2008.
