I want to say yes but I wish the CPO bumper to bumper was over a year. Also to be sure on the power train...is it an additional 5 years/100k miles or is it 5 years/100k miles from original first owner date of purchase?

Ya I thought CPO was more then a year normally? An not sure about the powertrain I think it says something on there but not positive. I really like these trucks but I'm also looking at a 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee overland with a 5.7 liter, just trying to make a choice hah

I don't think so. For a few more thousand you can get a 2015 SLT.

In my honest opinion, I would search for an SLT. I bought my SLT brand new in 08 for 32,000. I'm old school and decided to go with the SLT for a variety of reasons. One being the cost of maintenance and the cost of customizing. That AWD set up is going to kill you just if you want to lower the stance a lil. Too many things can go wrong in that electrical nightmare... Just my opinion though. Don't really know what your plans are for it. You can save yourself at least 5k with that screen and use the money to grab an 8" or 9" Alpine screen that will do so much more.... Then you get to the engine. You'll get more power to the ground if you go with rwd over awd. Example: I bought an STS rear mount turbo set up from a friend of mine that had it on his Escalade, he also has a performance shop, and he was none to happy after he did the install on my truck and found out that my 5.3 with only 7lbs of boost was putting more power to the ground with the same set up as his truck with 10lbs of boost. Lol. Needless to say, he's taken it upon himself to turn my truck into a project truck.....

Damn thanks for the info, wouldn't be doing much to the truck though, basically tinting the front windows an that's about it. I like the AWD because I live in Chicago and the 6.2 would be nice cause it's still something that has some get up for a family type of vehicle. Appreciate your response though....still deciding on which way I want to go, like I posted before I'm also looking at 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee over lands with the 5.7 so

Ah yes, with all that snow the awd would be helpful. Thankfully, I live in south Louisiana where we don't have that issue.....

How do you want to use the truck in the long run?

I had a 2003 Tahoe that was starting to show its age so it was time to let it go. I traded it in on a new 2013 Grand Cherokee Overland with the V6. Thought I would save some gas on it and still have enough power to tow our 4500lb boat a few times a year. Chrysler claimed it would anyways.

Didn't work out that way. We love the Jeep around town and has a 7 year warranty to make sure it continues. It's a really clean crossover with great technology. I am sure I won't keep it after that warranty expires due to all the electronics in it and our experience overall.

I bought a 2010 Yukon Denali last year to have as our Tow vehicle. The Jeep wasn't enough and is now my wife's daily driver I'm sure the V8 would have been the better choice but it's too small regardless. The bow of the boat on the trailer was as tall as the Jeep itself.

Something else I missed was the rear AC. The jeep only has vents in the rear and they don't put a lot of air out causing many complaints in the summer.

The 6.2 in the Denali is a beast. I can barely tell the boat is back there. I feel much safer in the Yukon on highways and it really handles well.

Thanks for your input denaliscott, the truck would be probably driven more by my wife since I have a different car I use for going to work. We just want something comfortable with a good amount of room for traveling, have a baby and a dog so hah...I am sort of a tech buff but I think as long as the Denali has a nice solid stock sound system I'll be ok. Also I definitely want something that's going to be reliable and not have a ton of problems, that's why I'm looking at CPO's
