jeep cherokee sport
i put my jeep through hell, and it still come through for me time after time. i will drive jeeps for the rest of my life.
Old look, new feel
I've had my Jeep for over 4 years now, and still love to drive it. I usually tire of products quickly, but not this Jeep. It's sleek enough to pick up clients in, durable enough to handle road trips, rugged enough to go off- road.
98 Cherokee
This car started as a lease, ended up buying it. Price was too high due to the unexpected purchase, but it is still running with 227,700 miles and doesn't use oil yet. Highway mileage is 20 mpg. On a recent trip, driving about 50, I got 25. Much less in the city. Only problem that are chronic are with the cruise control (won't hold the speed) and the air conditioning (doesn't work even after being re-done).
My Review
This vehicle is great in the winter with 4WD, and handles nicely anyh other time. The fuel economy is bad with this vehicle. Having a straight-6 engine takes a lot of gas, but if you can afford it the towing capacity is worth it.
Great little offroader/suv
I have had good luck with my Cherokee. No problems other than routine maitenance. If you are into the outdoors this is a great vehicle. I have gone through things I wouldn't dare with other vehicles. And the Cherokee is just the perfect size; you're able to haul stuff with the back seat taken out but can also manuever around downtown easily unlike some enormous SUVs.
