Hey everyone. We are finally replacing my wives SUV (even thought its running strong at 171K miles). We have been look at the Cherokee since 2014. We are mostly an FCA family and very familiar with the cherokee. I have a 2013 Ram that i ordered, now with 118K. My mom has a 15 TH, mother in law has a latitude, plus other friends and family (all pre2019). Mainly with the 3.2 engine.
We have a few dealerships around with 2019s for a lot off MSRP. FYI though that 0% for 72 months starts on 5/5 for 2020 cherokees (at least her in WI/MN).
Now the decision, which of these should we get (Pictures below). They both have the 2.0 Turbo, in velvet red and black interiors. FYI will get 8 year 100K max care (has paid off on my 2013 ram, wish they still had lifetime...). Due to COVID, we are doing most of the deal remote and will be delivered, but the wife did do a test drive locally to make sure she liked it.
1. Limited with 9 speaker sounds system (I really like the alpine system in my Ram), its good for a factory. I know its not the systems I had back when I was teenager but good.
2. Trail Hawk - $500 more with cold weather package.
Pros of each (the wife doesn't care which one btw):

Pros of each (the wife doesn't care which one btw):
Limited:
- Better mileage
- I like the look slightly better
- 9 speaker sound system
- Probably better on road handling
- Nicer interior? and power seats
- Simpler 4wd system (since my wife won't probably care about the advance 4wd)
- Better tires for winter (limited doesn't have much for options for AT tires, just Falken on the stock rims) and factory fullsize
- Better 4wd (however probably rarely used)
- Easier to add tow package, if I do.
- When we retire this (after warranty is up), we could make this the "fun" car
