I just cannot fathom how people are stupid enough to blow $100k on that monstrously oversized, absolutely ghastly looking vehicle. It has got to be one of the ugliest cars I’ve ever seen. And why would any moron need to drive a tank sized vehicle like this for Costco trips, going to soccer practice, and to drop off dry cleaning?
We should be making parking spaces even smaller and less available so idiots will have awful times trying to drive these really stupid vehicles. |
| I do hate it when I park our regular sedan in a parking space and return to find monster cars like this model parked on both sides. |
Interesting take. I like the car. Do not have one but it looks great both outside and in. Decent reviews. Jeep Train rated so I like that. Might be a little big but I do not see what the issue is. Some people like big cars. Not sure what your issue is. Many people feel the same way you feel except they hate small cars. I am not getting in the fight. Someday we will all have electric cars. My guess is that will be in 30 or so years when the battery technology is actually there. When that day comes --- there still will be big cars and people will drive them. You should find something else to fight against. |
Some people like heroin, cocaine, and lsd too. What’s your point? Big cars are stupid because there are more bad than good reasons to drive one. They are much, much more deadly for pedestrians and everyone around around them. They also pollute the environment much more and consume huge amounts of energy unnecessarily. They’re dumb AF vehicles. The only reason these puke worthy sized cars are allowed to exist is because of govt loopholes that the car industry lobbied for. They should be regulated as trucks that require commercial driver’s licenses to operate. No where else in the world do people drive stupidly sized cars like this. |
| The new Grand Wagoneer is a total embarrassment to the vintage model from the 1970s-80’s. What started as a rugged, utilitarian vehicle to access remote areas and bring the family has become nothing more than a status symbol for people who like to think their life mirrors a Vineyard Vines photo shoot. Wannabe Instagram influencers have completely ruined the vintage models and the new model is a sad shell of its former self. |
I feel similarly about the Jeep Gladiator. I call it the Trans Jeep. Like it can't decide whether it's a Wrangler or a pick-up. I have no idea what its pronouns are and I assume it needs special parking spots. |
Is this car bigger than a 4runner? |
This. The once classic workhorse has been totally commandeered by preppy businesses and young adults who probably can’t even drive a standard transmission. On a humorous note, I saw a massive new Grand Wagoneer being pulled out of a muddy farm field earlier this summer. Who would have thought a 4000 pound rear while drive brick with factory tires wouldn’t be able to get out of a muddy field? |
| I don't have one or need one, but I like the way they look. You can hate big cars for many good reasons but "ugly" is subjective. |

I think its only popular as an alternative to a Suburban or a Yukon Denali.
I can't believe I am actually saying this but it seems like Suburbans/Yukons are the basic b1t*h car and the Wagoneers are the cool mom cars. I drive a beat up Honda Pilot so I don't really qualify for either category. |
Yes. It's more like Suburban-sized. |
I was surprised by how big it is. A modern-day version that looked like the vintage one would have been interesting. |
Isn't it 4WD? |
I must have seen a Wagoneer as opposed to a Grand Wagoneer. The Wagoneer is available in 2 or 4 wheel drive. The Grand Wagoneer is standard 4 Wheel drive. |
