Smokey Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 I had the 4.7 in my 2001 Dakota. Was a strong engine with lots of power but heavy on fuel. I had no problems what so ever with the motor though for the time I owned it. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carll2 Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 4.7 v8 is a good engine..stay away from the 4.0 v8 in the grand cherokee its just as hard on gas as the 4.7s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokey Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 I agree with Carl. I had the 4.0 also and it was heavier on fuel then the 4.7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raf Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 Propably due to the extra size and weight of the GC. Motor has to work harder. I have the 4.0 I6 in my regular Cherokee and while it's no econobox, the mileage is OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
