Looks Ok from the pics. I call MAJOR BS on the 23 MPG though, 21 was the factory rating back when we had GOOD gas at the pumps. 16-18 was about the best I ever heard of them actually getting, with a few that got 20-21 if driven at 55. It looks like from the pics it is a selec-trac 4X4 which if it is is a good thing(2WD, 4WD full time and part time, neutral, and 4WD low). The transmission is the only major thing that would concern me with it. I know they improved there slush boxes in 03, but I don't know if the GRAND's got the improved ones or not. 70K-120K was about the life of most of the CHRYSLER tranny's. Check it over and make sure the fluid is nice and red, unfortunately there is no way to tell if it has the correct fluid in it or not(they use a special ATF+4 in these, but it looks identical to DEXRON III). And also look for oil leaks in the engine, 4.0L's tend to leak when synthetic oil is used in them.
