2011 Four Wheeler of the Year

Jeep Grand Cherokee vs. Lexus GX 460 vs. Land Rover LR4

By Sean P. Holman, Photography by Four Wheeler Staff

3rd Place: Lexus GX 460
What's Hot:
Great daily driver, isolated cabin, enthusiastic drivetrain, efficient
What's Not:
Intrusive electronics, lack of underbody protection, dull styling Our Take:
A very good tool that has lost its edge
From the Logbook:

  • "Power third row is a nice feature."
  • "Beep. Beep. Beep."
  • "No Crawl Control or rear locker."
  • "Lost the magic of the last generation."
  • "Interior feels very executive."

 At least Jeep was proactive and fixed the issue that lead to the failure, Landrovers will still roll off the line with heat prone air suspensions, and toyotas with inadequate everything else (hope you don't tear your Xfercase out from under it).
XJ6600
 So the only vehicle to NOT suffer a mechanical failure comes in third?  Sorry but I'll take reliability over "dashboard styling" when choosing an off-highway vehicle.
