    I don't believe this - Crazy

    So the used car market must be incredible right now. I got a quote in the mail from a local Jeep dealer (yeah I verified this w the dealer) that they would give me $19,600 for my Commander PLUS free gas for a year PLUS a $4500 voucher towards a new Jeep. That is absolutely insane IMHO. I am surely not going to sell it esp since I put so much work into the thing.

    Did anyone else get something similar?

    It is just like 2 years ago when there was a shortage of lease turn in vehicles. Used car prices went though the roof. It took almost 3 weeks for the dealer to find me the vehicle I wanted. Cash for Clunkers is to blame for the shortage now.

    WoW That offer would give me about $7000 dollar down payment for a new jeep plus free gas for a year. To bad they don't make commanders any more.

    Man it would be so difficult to swap it out now even for a new commander. Once you do the superlift, there is no return. Still having over $20k to purchase a new car plus free gas in my pocket is very tempting!!!

    Not sure if anyone is following but Sharks are putting up one helluva fight agains Vancouver. Exciting game indeed!

    Anyone check the prices on used Commanders? They are up quite a bit! Seems people are holding on to their vehicles more and more so the entire used car market has taken quite an uptick. Thanks but I will hold onto what I have...... Seen lots of '07's w around 50k miles going for $21k. Newer are getting more of course.

    Very true, those darn minivan engines get decent mileage, but it's still a minivan engine. 2012 is supposed to be different. We'll see.
