Re: Liberty CRD
I have an 05 Liberty Limited 4WD
I don't have the CRD I have a V6 gas burner. I get an average of 17.6 mpg. I
only have 2300 miles on it so far.
So unless you specifically want the CRD the additional cost isn't really
warranted strictly because of fuel economy.
Diesel is running higher than gasoline and the price is dropping slower than
gasoline. In the past diesel was always cheaper than gas.

Re: Liberty CRD
Consumer Reports is about the last place I would go for information on any
American nameplate. They have a distinct bias towards American brands in
general and Jeep in particular. But I'm sure the Libby is their favorite one
yet.
If I need a washing machine, I read CR. If I need a car, I do my own
research.

Re: Liberty CRD
I've been reading consumer reports for about 30 years now and they certainly
have a yuppie/yuppette tree-hugger bias.
Once you understand their bias you'll find them a good source of statistical
information.
They have no understanding of off-road issues and requirements and judge
SUVs in the same light as they would rate any other vehicle whose use is
solely light duty on paved streets.
A quick look at their recommended vehicles confirms this, when was the last
time you saw the recommended Buick Rendezvous or Volvo V70/XC70 off-road?
