I own a 06 Commander Hemi. It rocks. My main issue with it is that my foot seems to hit the area above the break and gas pedal. I have messed around with the electronic controls but nothing seems to work. I'm not Shaquille O'Neil over here, my foot is only a 9.5.
 
Has anyone else had trouble with the the space above the gas/break pedals?

I don't have any trouble with foot space or leg room. In fact, my commander has more head room than the new Tahoe. My head actually hits the ceiling on the Tahoe if the seat is not down ALL THE WAY!
I presently have a an 05 Tahoe that I like but it is getting lots of mile so I bought the Commander to basicly take it's place. In comparrison to the Tahoe,, It is sligtly smaller in width, not enough to be a problem. It is slightly shorter inside, which is not a problem in the front seat, but can be in the back seat. The rear seat does not remove like the tahoe, so there is a raised area, and the cargo area is much smaller that the Tahoe, I guess this is my biggerst complaint. The fuel millange is about 13.5 average where the Tahoe is a little over 16.
As far as the drive and handeling, the Commander has it over the Tahoe hands down. At road speeds of 70, it is far more stable. The 4x4 system on my is the QDii and it is full time, and far superior to the Tahoe. It is full time 4x4, and you can not spin one wheel, even on gravel or ice.
I am not too fond of the lower MPG, but it does have more HP and it also has full time 4x4, which is going to eat some fuel. All and all, considering that the Commander fully loaded cost less than 2/3 of a Tahoe, I am very happy.

To be 100% fair im a huge jeep fan but ive always owned explorers and living in chicago i am no stranger to bad weather. lets be honest to eachother and say that jack ass was probably driving over his head and landed in a ditch. im glad to hear you jeep did so well im currently looking for one my self but dont be fooled the explorers are very capable vehicles especially when equipped with AdvanceTrac and ControlTrac.
