I'm just a MOPAR guy through and through, it's all in good fun...
Mine is actually a 5.7L R/T I bought new in 2015 and put a cam, headers, stall and Whipple on it.

ususally whatever is in them gets real small, real quick.
Hello. I figured I'd check in and introduce myself.
We just recently picked up a 2022 Cherokee Altitude w/ 3.2L, Convenience Group and Tow Package. We're in Canada so I'm not sure how this model aligns with other package elsewhere.
We did a bit of an unexpected purchase last month when we found out that Jeep would be ceasing production of the Cherokee soon and all the 2023 models coming in with mostly 2.4L 4 cylinder engines and the odd one with the 2.0T. We didn't want a Trailhawk model as we aren't off-roaders, but we would like off-road capability. The thought of waiting for a new model Cherokee with electrification was not something we were willing to do so here we are about two years early for this vehicle. We are in a rural area with some tough hills to navigate on the highways around here so we wanted to stay away from the 2.4L and wanted the ability to tow approximately 3000 lbs.
This Jeep was manufactured in November, 2022 and was fairly fresh when we looked into it in early January. The vehicle was at a another dealer and a had to be picked up for us. The dealer experience was top notch and everyone we worked with was amazing. It has since been outfitted for our needs with some accessories and steel winter wheels.
This is a our second Cherokee. We had a 1986 Cherokee XJ with 5 spd manual and 2.1L Turbo Diesel. Fantastic vehicle. We towed a 13' holiday trailer all through northern British Columbia, Yukon, Northwest Territories, and parts of Alaska over some incredibly rough roads over a 10,000 KM trip. Arriving in Inuvik crossing the Arctic Circle was pretty amazing. After four years of ownership we sold the XJ since after the trip up north it became apparent that towing a trailer is not something we wanted to do and opted for a VW Syncro (4WD w/ diff locks) Westfailia camper van in which we travelled across Canada three different times taking different routes along with a lot of shorter trips.
We haven't used our new Cherokee much at this point, but we are looking forward to more travels soon. So far the Jeep has been good. We're pleased with the fit and finish, ergonomics and the way it handles. I've lurked on this forum for quite a while and I found the information here to be extremely valuable, so thanks to all for sharing this information.
We are minimalist people, so there's some things we didn't want or like but being near end of production, we had limited choices available to us. A Cherokee North would have been a more appropriate model for us, but none were available. The Sting-Grey colour is still something we are getting used to, but it's far from offensive!

Welcome from Utah!!!😎
We bought the same KL Altitude as you (minus the tow package) last June. About 12,000KM so far and it's been flawless. The sting grey paint will grow on you. Plus any colour other than that or white was several hundred $ more, at that time anyway. Welcome from Ontario.
Hello everyone! Just purchased our first Cherokee. 2019 Trailhawk Elite. Can't wait to have some fun!

I must admit that the colour is far from offensive, and it is growing on us. It's just a bit different and we didn't have a choice anyway. LOL!!

Refer to this Post in its entirety: Owner post delivery checklist
Also, since you don't drive it much charge the battery at least once a week or use a battery maintainer.
Cherokees have a lot of parasitic drain.

I really wanted the Sting Grey with black wheels when I was looking, but couldn't find a Trailhawk Elite anywhere in the country in that color, so I ended up with my second choice of "rare and uncommon" color Olive Green...😎

Hello!
New member, new KL owner. I bought a 2019 2.0L Trailhawk Elite yesterday and drove it 3 hours home.
So far, I mostly love it. It's black with black rims, but I'm swapping the black for the grey/polished rims ASAP (I already have a set!).
I also need to remove the flat tow kit and find, purchase, and re-install the OEM tow hooks (message me if you have a set for sale or trade).
Only thing I don't like so far... Vibration when turning & giving throttle. Seems very common, all 3 of the vehicles I test drove did it, though the one I bought seems to be a bit more harsh. Anyone know what that is?
Looking forward to learning more and interacting with everyone.
Thanks!!

Welcome from snowy Utah!!! I have the exact same Trailhawk as you, and mine doesn't do that. Everything is smooth as silk at 40k miles. Try turning off the traction control, and see if it still does it...😎

congrats and welcome to the forum! From the Okanagan valley in BC Canada…
I too was expected to get a 2022 North edition (it’s a company vehicle) but since there was none available, the closest fleet co. could find was an X so now I drive the X which is fine btw. mine has the safety & towing pkg. with black ext, black wheels and black int (basically black on black? or I’d call it “All Black”! Lol
