Jeep Grand Wagoneer L All My Earthly Possessions Test

For Autoblog regulars out there, you're probably already familiar with my ongoing Luggage Test series. Well, this won't be one of those. The new extended-length 2023 Jeep Grand Wagoneer L is so colossal that my usual collection of luggage would be swallowed with virtually no effort behind its third row. Basically, it has the sort of cargo capacity you'd find in a two-row midsize crossover behind a third-row seat big enough to comfortably accommodate people taller than 6 feet.

Luckily, I happened to be moving last week, so having the Grand Wagoneer L fall into my lap at the last minute couldn't have been more opportune. And we're not talking a few odds and ends here. Nope, I was moving office chairs, a desk, a crib, a high chair, wardrobe boxes and other large items I originally moved in an extended-length Toyota Tundra (we moved into my in-laws for four months while our house was being renovated). In short, if you need a bigger SUV, I'm afraid you won't find one. For people or cargo beyond this, your best bet is probably a Mercedes Sprinter.

Just how much bigger is the Grand Wagoneer L? Both it and the non-grand Wagoneer are a full foot longer than the non-L, including 7 more inches of wheelbase. That makes it 226.7 inches long, or nearly 19 feet, which is 1 inch longer than a Chevy Suburban. It's also just about the length of my entire new driveway and a helluva lot longer than a Jeep Wrangler Unlimited (see below).

The space behind the third row grows from 27.4 cubic-feet (which a regular Luggage Test revealed to be the best in its class) to 44.2. Put the seats down and it grows from 88.2 to 130.9, or roughly the size of a Manhattan apartment.

Those seats are lowered in the Grand Wagoneer Series III by handy buttons at the liftgate. The third row also goes back up at the touch of a button.

So what can all that space fit???
