The Jeep Commander is an also-ran in a competitive class, though it does offer plenty of space and capabilities to take a lot of passengers far off-road.Most of the Commander's engineering went into off-road performance, and reviewers say it shows. The Jeep Commander is a niche vehicle for people who like to go off-road and need a lot of passenger room. However, reviewers say that the passengers you haul down the trail in the Commander won't be happy campers. While some high-tech interior features, like Chrysler's uConnect multimedia entertainment system are available, the Commander just isn't as comfortable as competitors. What's more, it's rough on-road ride and thirsty engines make it tough to justify when compared to class leaders.
While the Commander has one of the lowest prices in the Large SUV class, its poor performance and inhospitable interior mean you may want to shop elsewhere. If you're looking for a comfortable SUV with plenty of seating space and towing capabilities, check out the Chevy Tahoe. Though it doesn't have the off-road chops of the Commander, some critics say it can handle the off-road terrain that most consumers will throw at them. If you just need people-moving ability and don't plan to go off-road or tow, check out the Chevrolet Traverse. It can seat as many as the Commander, costs a little less, is more comfortable to drive and gets better fuel economy. While it isn't as rugged as the Commander, if you can confine your driving to the pavement, it may be a better choice for you.
If you're dead set on the Commander, check out this month's best Jeep Deals to see what discounts and incentives are available. Also, consider choosing a 2009 Commander over the 2010 model. The two model years are virtually identical, but the 2009 model is less expensive and has a lifetime powertrain warranty -- something the 2010 model does not offer.
