Introduction
An off-road vehicle luxury family - now there's an interesting concept. Now in its fourth year of production, the 2009 Jeep Commander SUV was created to provide a seven-seater MPV, the comfort of a luxury SUV and engaging style as blocks long left Cherokee. The commander meets most of these individual goals, but we're not sure they unite in a way that best meets the needs of consumers.

For 2009, top-shelf 5.7-liter V8 commander gets an increase in power and torque. This is made possible by a system of variable valve timing revised, which also improves fuel economy. The strong and smooth Hemi cans now on 52 horsepower more than the provision of 4.7-liter V8, and it actually drink less 87 octane than its little brother. This obviously makes the Hemi engine choice if your heart is set on buying a commander.
However, we believe that most consumers would be better served by looking elsewhere. The passenger of the commander and cargo space pale in comparison to the full-size crossovers like the Ford, Acadia and CX-9 Mazda , its fuel economy and driving dynamics also drag these leaders class. The loaded Limited and offer plenty of creature comforts, but there are brand luxury vehicles that offer more upscale image and ambience of similar money Overland models. Few can deny the off-road prowess of the commander in this segment, but we do not know many families that go bright trail in their big SUVs. The 2009 Jeep Commander SUV does what it is designed to do, but for the most part, the competition is better.

Other cars to consider :
If you are looking for affordable large SUV used, you must to check out the 2009 GMC Yukon. Its interior is better, fit and finish is much better. The reviewers also greatly preferred handling on the road to the Yukon and Yukon commander can pull heavier loads and carry more freight.
Another model to consider is the 2009 Ford Expedition. Shipping is one of the most spacious cars in the class, and also one of the most capable in terms of towing and cargo. Walking on the road shipping is more comfortable than the commander, and carries on the jeep with a pleasant interior.
