They're a nice car Keitzy. My father in-law was always a merc man, and he'd trade in for a new merc 4wd every couple of years or so (they are retired and live in SA, and travel up through QLD in winter ever year for a few months, towing a caravan). He wasn't happy with his last merc, so tried a Grand Cherokee this time around based on the reports of other travellers he came across. He loves it, and apparently it does a better job of towing a big caravan than a merc.
 
Another toy for the shed. :D

Specs, have given it a good run already, works well, probably wont use the disc too much as I have Ryobi belt and disc sander as well. I bought this one for the narrow belt for sanding in tight places. Best place to buy is Hobbytools, @ $195, cheaper by about $35 than anywhere else.

I did try to buy it on Monday, but after ringing Weber they told me there is a lifetime warranty on the spark thingamjiggy thing on the baby Q. So they sent one out. They were a bit surprised the wire had snapped of but it does get heavy use.
Kudos to Weber. 5 years warranty on all other parts and they have been replaced over it's lifetime which is 10 years now. That is why you buy a Weber.
