93 JEEP Grand Cherokee Laredo.



All time 4WD, 5.2L V-8, Towing package... Yeah, you get the idea.



4K. It's a really nice truck. Didn't need it, but I'm tired of getting wet in the Escort every time it rains... And I can't haul **** in that thing.. Will post pics later today.

How can it be all-time 4WD? Wouldn't that mean you couldn't turn? It is it electronically actuated 4WD? And how is that different than an AWD system then?

Sorry, I seem to have forgotten my JEEP certified mechanic papers... LOL



****, I dunno. AWD then... Didn't know there was a difference. All I know is there is no option to drive in 2WD. Only 4WDLow.

The Quadra-Trac is a sophisticated permanent all-wheel-drive system and also the easiest to use. The choice of high or low range is the only decision the driver has to make.



There. Found it on Google. Searched 93 Jeep Laredo Quadra-Trac.

I've put Grand Cherokee's through pretty much all forms of abuse possible.



As for their off-road capabilities, they are pretty good but the Cherokee's are better. I got our old one stuck in a giant water hole on a single track. Went in too hot and water came over the hood and then the engine stalled out. I was on the gas too, and the water level was only about an inch or 2 below the doors so it wasn't that deep at all. So that pissed me off, my friends Cherokee could take **** like that no problem. The sumbitch wouldn't start my friend and I had to push it out of the water(back when nobody had cell phones). With the 3rd person sitting inside rocking it and steering and trying to start it IN HIS PROM SUIT. We just were gonna go out and have some fun real quick, didn't quite end up going as planned and he was late for prom.



but all and all with what I've put our Grand Cherokee's through I feel as though they've held up pretty damn good.
