I had a 2015 Limited for 4 yrs. Was looking to get a Limited X cuz it looks so sporty and aggressive. Ended up getting a High Altitude and I love my Jeep❤ it’s so beautiful!!
The air suspension makes a huge difference. I had a 2014 Altitude, just got a 2020 High Altitude. It feels much more substantial, much more quiet, and much more comfortable. As with anything you get what you pay for, being the high altitude is better.
Absolutely no doubt . The 2019/2020 limited X looks absolutely phenomenal . It’s a testament to just how successful the grand Cherokee has been for Chrysler /fiat . It’s a shame that you can’t gets those awesome exteriors components on the Hight Altitude or Summit models . I personally think it’s a farewell thank you from Jeep to its fans giving them the option to make the middle of the road version Grand Cherokee X the nicest looking version of the whole lineup .🙂👍
The summits do come with it
Aside from a very well done review on these cherokees you’re a very bright dude and you motivated me with your statement on ambition. Subscribed 👍👍
Thanks! Glad it helped and hope you have a great 2020!
My personal preference would be the Limited X - That hood gives the aggressive look I look for in cars. Now I heard a rumor from a local Jeep Dealer that the Grand Cherokee will be re designed in 2021-2022.
Dealer did not lie
@@urban-toonz8693 Now I heard a rumor from a local Jeep Dealer that the Grand Cherokee new design will be facelifted in 2025-2026.
Limited X all the way!
I do like the wheel design more on the X! Thanks for sharing!
great video thank you! I find it hard to do comparisons online but this answered all my questions. I like how you show the windows stickers in detail.
Just got the limited X , your video helped and thanks for sharing!
Wow. Great video. I previously thought they were the same vehicle. Lots of differences. Thanks
Yes, you're video was extremely helpful and I really appreciate how you pointed out the differences, very, very helpful. I think you are right that you are better off going with the high altitude for the differences you mentioned, I only wish it had the paddle shifters, and it should for an upgraded version. Thank you again.
No problem, glad it was helpful 👍🏾
Both are really attractive models. Though the interior imo on the high altitude, along w options are better. I was in the market for the limited x but went in a different direction because in all reliability is an issue for me. That said they are nice and Jeep should give different interior color options to choose from which was a gripe for me.
I always wondered what the difference was. Perfect video!
Thanks!
Great review dude, I'm considering buying one this year. Thank you for bringing up the different between the v6 and V8 engine.
Thanks and glad it was helpful 👍🏾
The cheapest trim level that you can get the air suspension is the Trailhawk. As far the differences go between the two, I would say the differences are more or less in the interior as I don’t like the seat design in the Limited X. The Limited X’s seat appearance is based off the early to mid 90’s Grand Cherokee Laredo seats.
I own a 2015 Grand Cherokee Overland and love it. No extra options on top of the Overland trim level. I wish when Jeep redesigns the Grand Cherokee that they simplify the lineup as there are way too many redundant trim levels
Superb review. I currently drive a 2012 Jeep Liberty Jet and need to get another vehicle because of high mileage and a rusting rear lift gate. I'm currently leaning towards the 2021 limited X. I would like to see a review on the 2021 Limited X.
I got me the Limited X 2 days ago . Thank you for this video
Thanks for sharing 👍🏾
about to purchase a Grand Cherokee now. I like the Hood on the X but like you said no ventilated seats and no air suspension. I think we are going to buy the High Altitude or Summit
I have a 2021 High Altitude and it has the sporty hood. Black on black. The air suspension is boss!
Amazing video and awesome message! You've gained a fan (and subscriber) 👍🏼
Thanks Alex, really appreciate it 👍🏾
With every redesign they get larger and larger. This is about as big as I need I don't require third row seating which is coming in the new model.
I have a 2011 black Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited luxury group. What the Overland’s have I have everything that the Overland’s have just not the Air suspension witch I didn’t care to have cause it drives so damn good all the time! I have the 5.7 in mine. 20 inch rims of course;) but I changed my stock intake to K&N cold air intake and I changed my stock exhaust to Corsa/Sport and it sounds damn nice! I get mush more better MPG and more Horse power and torque!!! Changing stock stuff to ur own stuff is what makes the difference in how it looks and drives and what u get from your engine! The one thing that I’ve done to my Jeep was I put White LED lights inside my grill shinning up so all u see is a grill all lighted up at night! 2 eyes and a mouth coming at you! But now these days getting all the bells and whistles ur going through packages to package to that package just to get what h want now. Then when I got my Jeep it was already there in a Limited! Overland is in my limited!
Very good Video, Not having cooled seats for me would be a deal breaker. I have a Durango R/T and love the cooled seats.
Thanks! I agree too, even in the winter time I find myself turning them on. Thanks for sharing 👍🏾
Great video! I had a limited 75th anniversary edition. I traded it in for something else. I missed Jeep so I went back and got a Altitude. After I got it I saw the limited X and loved it. I kept the Altitude for a little while then went back a week ago Saturday to compare the high altitude and limited X. I ended up getting the limited X. I didn’t like the lane keep assist which I had on my previous highlander. I was also worried about the air suspension failing in the future. I chose a leftover X without a sunroof and was able to get it for 39. I never used my sunroof on my Altitude so I was willing to give it up for the discount.
Thanks and congrats! It’s hard to beat the Grand Cherokee! I think the best value the Limited X brings is the fact that you can get it stripped down but still has tons of standard equipment. I second the air suspension especially if you plan on keeping it for a long time. Thanks for sharing!
Any concerns on the hood vent on the limited x? There are wires right under the vent.
I specifically got a Limited instead of the higher levels because I didn’t want the air suspension and possible problems associated with it. I searched until I found a Limited with the Luxury Group II package which has a lot of the goodies the upper levels have.
Air bags are prone to freezing in all FCA products in cold weather climates. You will need to go into settings and turn OFF your air suspension in the winter. The system vents air to remove moisture in humid locations. In cold locations the system will eventually freeze a blow the 40 amp fuse that controls this system.. so buy a bunch of fuses if you don’t have a heated garage in the northlands.
I had my Air Suspension for 3 years and gets pretty dam cold here. Not one problem with the Air Suspension. I even put it on off road 2 and ran it thou 11 inches of snow and it drove like a champ while other SUV (both 4 wheel and non 4 wheel) and Pickup trucks (without 4 wheel drive Only) were stuck. I have an Overland BTW with 20" Off Road Tires
Qugie ....everything was fine with my Rebel until this year ... we live 2 hours north of Toronto.
The Chrysler dealer was filled with vehicles experiencing the same issue . The tech suggested they put fuses in a candy jar for the customers 😂
@@leighmellow7506 Rebel is not a Jeep. they have different systems
Awesome review!
Thanks Christine 👍🏾
Great review brah!
Thanks man! We need to do the review for the Titan if you got time
Got my ( very first SUV vehicle ) 2020 high altitude x hemi last sunday. I had to get an SUV because my 2 year old is growing up and my 2017 mustang GT is not ideal daily drive for us anymore ( trust me i was heartbroken to let go of my muscle car 😞😭😞 ). I guess, for me, it feels weird with the constant change of suspension height depends on the MPH. I wish it could of stay in one height and just change it whenever i feel like it. ( i came from 3 generation of mustang ). But other than that i love it.
Fantastic video
Nice Review man! Helped me understand the different models.
Now that I've seen the New Grand Cherokee L and the 2022 Grand Cherokee photos...I rather have the current WK2 honestly...I was kind of let down with the new redesign...
Went from a 2017 GC Limited 5.7 V8 (yes, the V8 was available back then for the limited trim level) to a 2020 GC High Altitude with V8, air suspension, 19 speaker stereo…I love driving it. If you are in traffic, it’s easy to drive and powerful. If you get in the mood to drive a sports car, push the Sport button and the suspension firms up and drops down, the transmission recalibrates to shift very quickly and the steering firms up. It’s an amazing vehicle, particularly with the V8. And, runs on regular unleaded. Now, I am trying to decide if I want to get the new body style…
Thanks for this video made me get a high altitude over the limited X 👍
No problem, glad it was helpful!
I have the high altitude: it’s way better than the limited. The air suspension you can drop it into park and it’s looks sick being low. Fully loaded with sporty looks can’t go wrong. Only thing I give the limited is the sport hood.
"Way" better? No
I have the white 2018 High Altitude. Rides great. That solid feel is what we really like in this car. Sticker was $53,300 and we walked out the door at $42,200. Not to bad of a deal for a pretty nice car. Love the videos.
Nice! I miss mine and kind of wish we kept it! The ride/performance from the V6 is top notch. Man you sure know how to negotiate because that’s all of it lol!
@@JB_WhoWork they are a volume dealership so they would get paid more at the end of the month then more vehicles left then lot. I wasn't in need of a car so I wasn't buying unless they hit my price point.
David Brown shat dealership was thus?
how u get a 10,000 discount
@@tyronefrieson419 big volume dealer and end of the month. Plus, I didnt go in there having to purchase anything. If I didnt get the deal I wanted then I would've just walked, I really didn't care.
I like the high altitude but I don’t need the air suspension or the screens in the back
I just got a 2021 altitude 4 days ago. (: I love it
Congrats 🎊🍾🎉
@@JB_WhoWork Thank you!
the thing that I want are the safety features; the high altitude has them but the limited X does not but I think you can order them on the price an build website
You can order the safety features on the X!
Great video👍 I really want the srt but 2nd option is a high altitude.
Thanks! A slightly used certified SRT isn’t a bad idea either 👀...
@@JB_WhoWork I agree. If I were to choose a SRT it would be used since they are pricey. 20k miles
Hi, I just traded my 2015 Altitude in for a 2018 trailhawk, but don't see how the front passenger seat folds forward into a flat position like my Altitude does. Do you know which of the trims this feature is possible? I need this function for my 150lb mastiff to be able to lay there
btw i'm still in my 7 day money back guarantee period through Carvana, so I can still exchange that Trailhawk for another one
all the jeeps look 99% the same to me... i cant tell the difference between the various trim levels of each model. thank you for this video
Most versions have the name badge on the back (Summit, Overland, Limited, etc) aside from the Altitude which I do not believe has any badging on the back.
Everyday ride quality, is the air suspension much smoother than regular coil suspension ?
Oh yes! Air suspension will contribute to a smoother ride and helps it to be more stable too 👍🏾
Nice to see that Jeep redesigned the gear lever. The old one was....well deadly...
Fact!
Brother just came across your channel, great reviews. I am a Jeep guy and I have a Grand Cherokee Laredo 2017 , I’m looking to upgrade to a Rubicon or a Sahara . What are your thoughts on the two? Im going back in forth trying to figure out what I want
Limited x looks better but the high altitude is better overall. I got the limited x bc of the blacked out badging and the sports hood.
Any concerns on the hood vent on the limited X? I went to a local dealer to open up the hood. There are wires under the vent. Is it safe?
Nope, the engine is ok to get wet and shouldn’t have any effects because of the vents.
I've owned by 4x4 Limited X for about 7 months now and I love it so much. I personally went with the X because I had the Altitude package and wanted something slightly different. Haven't really experienced a whole lot of rain with this car but I've had no problems with it so far. The panorama moon roof is so worth it. If you don't live in a place where you need air suspension it's really unnecessary. They're far more expensive to fix in the long term as well. I was very torn between the 2 models when I was shopping but I personally love the look of the limited X. The hood and rims add a very nice touch to it.
@@plunger99 Yes, I went with the Limited X too in the early February. It feels great on the road. Woo hoo :)
My trailhawk comes with the air suspension.
I do think that some of the trim levels are not needed, but I absolutely love this generation of Grand Cherokee. If I wanted more upscale or luxury then I would get an Escalade or Navigator. I absolutely hate the look of the new Grand Cherokee. After my 19' GC is done, if there is no new generation, then I will probably move on from the GC. 🥺
Maybe it will grow on you 👀
High Altitude is ten grand higer I like the x better
Trunk=NOT a truck but still left a like
can you buy and replace the hood of the high altitude with the limited x hood.
I’m sure you can 👍🏾
Good review quick comparison video between the Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited X and the Jeep Grand Cherokee High Altitude. From exterior there are couple minor differences between the two trim levels. There are few more differences found on the interior between the two trims. My trim level of choice between these two would be the High Altitude due to having more standard features and a more upscale interior look. For that trim level I would've gotten it nicely equipped with the 5.7 liter HEMI V8 engine. I'm on agreeable terms with you that overall the current generation Jeep Grand Cherokee feels dated. From 2011 until now a new design is well over due. Since that time until now I think either one or two mid cycle refresh designs took place, but it's time for a new generation rise to surface though. Despite the dated look each year that comes by the Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles are doing well in sales. I don't know how Jeep did it, but overall sales are pretty good for this soon to be outgoing generation Jeep Grand Cherokee. The upcoming new generation 5th generation Jeep Grand Cherokee will be unveiled/released this coming year in 2021 as the 2022 model year. Initially, the new generation should've gotten released in one of the fall months this year in 2020 as the 2021 model year, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic things got pushed back one year. So, this coming year 2021 we should all see the new generation 5th generation Jeep Grand Cherokee. I think in either May or June it'll get unveiled at a Conference. Then, maybe couple or few months later it'll be available for purchase at dealerships. I currently have the 3rd generation Jeep Grand Cherokee in the Limited trim. That body style is from 2005 to 2010. I have intentions on getting the upcoming 5th generation Jeep Grand Cherokee. I will not get the first year of the new generation though. The first year is the 2022 model year, so for me I'll wait and get either the 2023 or the 2024 model year. Based on info I got from couple sources, the new generation Jeep Grand Cherokee will have few more advanced safety features on top of what's currently available in the current generation 4th generation Jeep Grand Cherokee. In addition to new advanced safety features, other new features will include a model offering 3rd row seating (this will be the first time ever a Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicle will have that), surround view/360° view camera, HUD (Heads Up Display), rotary dial shifter, foot activated lift gate, power folding rear seats and etc. The third generation Jeep Grand Cherokee I have is in the Limited trim with a 4.7 liter V8 engine. At the time I wanted to get it with the 5.7 liter HEMI V8, but it wasn't available. The 4.7 liter V8 engine got discontinued when 2011 came around. When I get the new generation Jeep Grand Cherokee I'll get it in the Overland trim level with the 5.7 liter HEMI V8 and 3rd row seating (a model with the usual 2 rows of seats will still be available). The current 5.7 liter HEMI V8 produces 360 horsepower with 390 pound feet of torque. Expect those two numbers to increase when the new 5.7 liter HEMI V8 becomes available for the new Jeep Grand Cherokee. Depending on how things might go in terms of pricing differences, I might get the new generation Jeep Grand Cherokee in the SRT trim. That'll be a nice powerhouse there. I would have to see how things go when the time comes. 2021 should be a good year for Jeep.
Thanks for your insight, good stuff!
@@JB_WhoWork You're welcome. Anytime. When the time comes for me to get the 5th generation Jeep Grand Cherokee either for the 2023 or the 2024 model year, I'll still keep the 3rd generation one I currently have. I'll just use it as a secondary or emergency vehicle and the new one will be my daily driver. In addition to the new features I mentioned in my general post, another thing that'll be new for the upcoming 5th generation Jeep Grand Cherokee from a mechanical standpoint is that transmission will have an e-torque mechanism. I'm not sure about the details of how this mechanism works, but I'm sure it's to make improvements somewhere some how. The new generation RAM 1500 pickup trucks have this e-torque mechanism on the transmissions. One more thing that'll be new for the new Jeep Grand Cherokee is a 10.1 inch infotainment screen. Certain trim levels or packages will get that screen size because the 8.4 inch screen will still be available. I'm not sure if you remember the Jeep Wagoneer from years ago. If you do, well Jeep will be bringing it back. Currently in the Jeep lineup they have couple sub compact SUVs, a compact SUV and a midsize SUV, but no full size SUV. Well, this coming year 2021 that will change. They will have a full size SUV in their lineup next year. Their full size SUV line will be the Jeep Wagoneer and Jeep Grand Wagoneer. These two vehicles will compete well with the Lincoln Navigator/Navigator L, Cadillac Escalade/Escalade ESV, Infiniti QX80, BMW X7, Mercedes Benz GLS, Ford Expedition/Expedition Max, Chevy Tahoe, Chevy Suburban, GMC Yukon and Yukon XL. The Wagoneer will compete with the regular full size SUVs while the Grand Wagoneer will compete with the luxury brand full size SUVs. Should be good.
I saw a difference, the side mirrors are different. Great vid.
You got it!
Limited X has black mirrors and High Altitude has body color mirrors
If they bring out the updated ecodiesel I might re look at the Jeep GC line...
True, especially if it has 480TQ too!
0:13 Limited X has SRT Hood / Headlamp Washers / Black Side Mirrors.
Dang, your comment about the HA missing Headlamp washers drove me down a rabbit hole.
For 2020 Jeep dropped the washers from X, Overland, and High Altitude models.
Only the Summit, SRT8, and Trackhawk have them now.
If you look at their website the picture shows headlight washers but the physical vehicles don't have them.
Oh well, I guess it doesn't make a huge difference.
@@tim3172 talk about false advertising lol
One day i will go with the ladder one . i have eyes on the altitude
That short rant @ 15:10 LMAO...was ded entertaining...I like the High Altitude now. Ventilated seats, power side mirrors, air suspension.
Unfortunately you can’t get the Harmon kardon sound system or the air suspension in the limited X . 😞👎. Also the leather is not Nappa like on the High altitude .
True! I forget about the leather, thanks for sharing!
Best looking grand cherokee design the L is awful from the back got a limited x today
TrackHawk everyday
Limited X with 5.7 Hemi.
Lower gear ratio is BETTER for towing! 3.45 is actually a Lower ratio then 3.09 in the v8 which is a higher ratio.
You can get a 4x2 high altitude that does not come with air suspension. You stated that it is standard.
But the Jeep I reviewed is 4x4 so it’s standard for this specific setup 👍🏾
High Altitude is my chose
0:23 the mirrors
How did u manage to make the lights shaking like that?
Where at?
It’s the LED lights, when on camera they blink/flash like that
Landon Hammmond ok.
"...lipstick on a pig." I have to agree 100%. Their cars look great, but most of FCA's lineup is a decade old, Grand Cherokee, Challenger, Charger, Durango, etc. Either their designers are too lazy or they are playing the margin game just like Apple who keeps polishing up old tech and marking up the prices. I've been waiting on a Challenger redesign for a while now. I may just have to pick up the upcoming 2021 Grand Cherokee instead, not waiting on the Challenger anymore.
Yea it sucks as I think with everything going on, no one is going to launch a new model right now so it could be a couple more years before we start hearing about a new Challenger.... Grand Cherokee should be here soon but it’s being held off probably late 2021 2022.
I would pick up a charger but that interior is really hard to look past even with my discounts...
Hey bud ... I need little bit of encouragement. I'm very close to make a decision to buy 2017/18 Grand Cherokee
... continuation... Or Highlander. Toyota is simply not me. The only reason is: reliability. Tell me my friend: how likely I'll have serious problems with GC (higher trim) once I pass 60/70k ...
Probably not much different than on the Highlander. As I mentioned in the video I had 3 JGC and had absolutely no problems. I would avoid the air suspension if you are really concerned because thats probably the only thing that could give issues in high mileage.
Thank you ... I really appreciate your prompt response!
Jeep out did themselves with the WK2 since its initial launch in 2010 and it has improved almost 100% since then. A new design is always welcomed, but I can't see anything better than this. Lipstick on a pig as it may be - if it aint broke dont fix it.
I respect that
where was your seatbelt? 3:47
You got me! I did put it on a couple of seconds later 🤗!
Limited X is the lesser version. High altitude all the way. I have a 2018 with 5k miles in NYC let me know if you want it.
it's not about which one is better? you can't get spare parts for a 10 year old jeep x
Is there a lot of wiggle room with these as far as price negotiation goes?!
Absolutely! I always shoot for at least 4-5k off + whatever rebates are available.
@@JB_WhoWork what's the best lease price on the limited x. 36 month lease
@@1.21Gigawatts_ If you're in CA, you'll be paying over $450/mo with 3500 down and all leases, at least in CA are now 48 month leases.
I like the Limited X better
Why have 3 trim models of a Grand Cherokee that's blacked out the High Altitude I can understand you want a Overland but blacked out and the Altitude I also understand since it's the cheapest out of the 3 versions but the LimitedX shouldn't exist just get the Altitude and add on packages and save the rest
Can you swap out hoods between any of the jeeps?
Model to model Yes
@@JB_WhoWork awesome. Any best priced place to buy them?

Way too many commercials. Btw it was a very good vid.
Thanks for reminding me I need to take some out as I was still figuring out how to add them
The weird thing is that I have a limited rental that has an electronic adjusted steering wheel, heated and ventilated seats.
Yea you can literally make the Limited an Overland minus the air suspension
That’s exactly what I did. Got a Limited with the luxury II package.
Yeet
It is 2022, and even the upcomming 2023 models are not updated. Vehicles like the Mercedes GLC300 are way outclassing the Jeep's higher-end trims for about the same money.
So sad.
JB I won’t one.
So for me, when I think Jeep, I think CJ 5, CJ 7, Renegade, Jeepster,, Willie's, true old jeeps of days gone by. I am not a fan of the fancy SUV jeeps. To me a jeep is supposed to be an off road jungle or desert rat.
With that said, the SUVs are nice, just not for me.
The Jeepster is a true classic one I’ve forgotten about! I would say the JGC though more luxurious, performs well off-road assuming you get it with the air suspension and trail rated!
@@JB_WhoWork I had a 1969 Jeepster Commando, and I kick myself every time I think about how I sold it. That thing would go anywhere, and take the punishment I gave it and keep on going as if to say, is that all you Got? How I miss that thing.

Only complaint is excessive ads. Chose a different reviewer instead. like your style but twice the ad interr

My air suspension died at 88km AVOID it. Garbage
Is air suspension only available on High Altitude 4x4 or also on High Altitude 4x2?
Smh
Stopped watching it after 00:20 seconds, this guy is terrible. Yes you can tell the difference right away from seeing both of them, The hood is different and black mirrors, if you don't pay attention to detail like that then you should't do car reviews.
Limited X=a wanna be SRT. my boss purchased the limited X and thought he was the shit until I pulled up to work in my jeep SRT. He hasn't driven it since..
lol then he fired you
