Trading in my Cherokee for TDI Jetta

Might happen this week.

I believe the gas prices will continue to rise and I would like to trade-in my 2000 Grand Cherokee before the SUV market bottoms out.

It kills that car mfr make claim an expedition gets 13-15 mpg. Bull****.

My wifes jeep is a straight 6 and it has NEVER averaged over 17mpg. We have had it since new and it has been poperly maintained.

Obviously, bumber to bumper traffic brings that average down, but I have to take that into consideration. I'd rather be in bumper to bumper averaging 30 - 40 mpg than 17.

Additionally, I will be selling two or three of my company vans and purchasing some kind of small 4 cyl hatchback for the guys that go and service my accounts. They really don't need the vans as they don't make deliveries, they just perform a service that is not very equipment intensive.

Thoughts....
