Americas Looking to Buy

[theox]

Been looking at purchasing a Grenadier for some time now. Been a Jeep family for over a decade, but looking for something that is Jeep-like or better in the offroad department, can tow more, has more umph on the interstate, and has more cargo capacity. Seems like the Grenadier fits the bill! My only hang up is the reliability aspect, although it seems the great majority of you have well operating vehicles. Wanted to tap into the site knowledge on picking a good one, so few questions follow:

1) How difficult is it to mount a winch if you don't get the factory option? Do standard mount plates/Warn winches fit in the mount area?
2) What are some good tests/inspection items to hit while choosing at the dealer?
a) Inspect diff for leaks?
b) Bucket of water on the safari windows?
c) Run HVAC hard for an hour to see if it drains properly?
d) What else am I missing?
3) Who is the go to vendor for aftermarket parts?
4) How apt are the dealers to move off the listed price? What are some of the better deals people are getting?

Thanks in advance, your knowledge is much appreciated!

The main thing to do is drive them. Spend time with it.

Long enough to make sure you like it, like it. The way it feels, sounds, drives and then make sure you get a dealer who cares.

Someone far more knowledgeable will come around shortly with a good list of things to check.

Take at least 2-3 test drives. Make them as long as they will allow. Be sure one of them includes highway upwards of 80mph for a fair distance.

You’re reasons for looking at the grenadier were the same as mine.

Other than a winch mounting plate costing $1000 (and I think you’ll find this is the case with all aftermarket grenadier accessories compared to jeep accessories), accepting it will never be a rock crawler on 40” tires, and a minimal dealer network compared to jeep, it’s great.

#1 is just money and like other things, the more expensive the starting price seems to mean the more expensive the accessories are

#2 is personal preference

#3 is the big one, I wouldn’t recommend buying one if your dealer is more than an hour or two away. Mine is great, but I’ve been there more than I feel I should with a new car and if I was driving more than an hour to get there it would cause bigger impacts to my schedule and I’m sure I would be more frustrated, especially since I use it as my daily driver

#3 might be one of the larger tells. I haven't hardly been to my dealership at all and it's 10min down the road. Though Inhave had some issues that I took care of myself. These trucks are seemingly so inconsistent in build quality.
