    Jeep Grand Cherokee To Have A Short 2013 Model Year

    Back in January, Chrysler made the announcement that the Jeep Grand Cherokee would be getting a diesel engine in 2013. We thought that would be for the 2013 model year, but it appears that it will be for 2014 Model Year.

    Now that seems like some bad news, but don't fret. According to Automotive News, Jeep will shorten the 2013 Model Year Grand Cherokee to make way for the 2014 Model Year to come out as soon as January.

    A source says the diesel engine that will be used in the Grand Cherokee is the same one used in Europe; a 3.0L diesel V6 from VM Motori delivering 241 hp and 406 lb-ft of torque.

    Also coming in the 2014 Grand Cherokee will be a ZF eight-speed automatic.

    Technically, GM could use the same engine the Jeep is getting. They own 50% of the company that built it.

    That would be kick ass if the Terrain could have the engine with an 8sp tranny. Talk about AWD Rocking Power with Mileage! :D

    • A new pastor was visiting the homes of his parishioners. At one home, it seemed obvious that someone was at home, he knocked but no one answered, even after repeated knocks. He took out a business card and wrote "Revelation 3:20" on the back of the card and stuck it to the door. At the next service when he reviewed the offering, he found his card had been returned in the basket. A cryptic message under his "Revelation 3:20" was "Genesis 3:10". Reaching for his bible to check the citation, he broke out laughing. Revelations 3:20 begins "Behold, I stand at the door and knock" Genesis 3:10 reads, "I heard your voice in the garden, and I was afraid for I was naked." Remember when the funniest jokes were the clean ones? Pass it on!
