| Not surprised. The Liberty wasn't designed to offroad, its to keep up with the SUV's-that-never-leave-pavement craze. |

Looks like that footage could be staged.

| I like that new commander they have out, I love that box design, I thought the liberty was cool looking the first time I saw it, of course that was the first time |

| As a Liberty owner I would honestly say it's been a great ride. I've had mine for two years now. I would agree that it's not made for aggressive off-roading but the four wheel drive system is quite capable. I've been in some pretty knarly stuff down around Powell Point. I got rid of the Wrangler pieces of crap tires and put Bridgestone Dueller Revo's on it and that made a huge difference as far as where I can go. When I want to get into the really hairy stuff I go with my buddy that has an old Toyota Landcruiser, lifted with huge tires and a Chevy V8 in it. That thing will go anywhere! |

| Sorry, I don't get the Liberty...I have a 97 Cherokee Sport & will take it just about anywhere, even though it needs a lift & a rear locker. I still don't like the gear range...would love for it to be lots lower ike my Dodge Ram 150 short bed with a 4" lift...now THAT will go just about anywhere. I love my Jeep but there is always room for improvement :haha: |
