It's sounds like pound for pound the TBSS Chevy could be the smarter choice financially... The Jeep seems to look a little better though...WOW, this is realy a tough call????
I really think your wrong on that. You have to remember your getting your info from a mainly GM forum. You have to do a little more research on your own and formulate your own opinion.

Jeep does have stiffer suspension, but I couldnt notice it as a big of a problem as some here say. If you want a nice ride buy an Escalade. I would never buy anything new(change my mind to much) new they really arent that much different. Maybe 3k tops, Im talking the 3SS AWD TBSS and the Jeep. According to Cars.com they are 3k different new in 07. Used I cant find much of a difference either.

Moding wise I think they are very similar with probably the edge going to the Jeep until you get really fast(like 10.50 and below). They make a lot for the Jeeps too.

After all the research I have done plus driving both I think I have made up my mind.
