Jeep 
        Commander
        
        When the Jeep Commander first came out I 
        was not sure how I felt about the jeep commander.  To me it looked like the Jeep 
        Cherokee was brought back to life, but given a major face lift.  I 
        almost had to ask myself if the Jeep Cherokee was taken off the market 
        in 2001 for this reason?   
        The Jeep Commander brings back the 
        classic "boxy" jeep look I always liked.  The Jeep Commander looks 
        like it was inspired from the classic Willy's wagons from the 
        1940's-1960's.  I was not particularly thrilled when the Liberty 
        came out a few years back.  To me it looked like they cut off the 
        front of the Jeep Wrangler and attached it to the back of a Jeep 
        Cherokee.  Finally, Jeep has introduced a great looking vehicle.  
        Check out some Jeep Commander 
        pictures.

        The Jeep Commander offers even more 
        than I am listing here.  I just wanted to list some of the features 
        I grabbed off Jeep's web site for the 2006 jeep commander.  Click
