I love my Cherokee!
I've had this Jeep for about 9 months and LOVE it! I had no problems with it yet. The ride is a bit bumpier than normal vehicles when you hit some railroad tracks or a pothole, but its otherwise ok. The gas milage isn't great, but it could be worse :) The cargo space irks me just a little, just a few more inches and a few snowboards or mountain bikes would fit perfectly without having to jam them in. Overall, i think the Cherokee is a great vehicle in style and performance, and i would recommend it to anyone.
A little adds up to a lot
I've enjoyed our Jeep. Purchased at 68K and now at 109K we've had to replace the exhaust system, the heater core, the AC core, the water pump, the brakes, the left signal doesn't work, and the left speaker also doesn't work. With a ten year old in the back seat it's too small. We also had to purchase a turtle for the top b/c the back is too small for a family of four's luggage. But all in all, we've enjoyed it and plan on keeping it for awhile. After all, we've had all of the work done! What more could go wrong??
The BEST Vehicle I have ever bought !
I bought mine back in 2005 it is 2WD and it had 90,000 on it. The price was right so I couldn't pass it up. I am so glad I bought that Jeep, this May will be 5 years that I have had it, and I have only a few repairs. I replace a water pump at 145,000, and a clutch at 180,000. Other than that it has been only your basic up keep. I now have 220,000 on it! It's still going strong, this vehicle has sat put year round in the MN cold and it has always started, not once has it not. Everything still works great in it except the air did go out at 183,000. I will never get rid of my Jeep its been awesome! It is sad to know that they did stop making them after 2000.
My 2 wheel drive jeep
So its two wheel drive. My friend has a Blazer I can get everywhere he can just as fast. With out the 4 wheel drive. So it doesn't get stuck I love her.
Nothing else ever will compare
I love this jeep. I'm on my 4th year of owning it and can't say enough. I've put around 80,000 miles on it and at 150,000 it still runs like brand new. During the winter, we had 24" of snow and it was below zero and it was nice being the only one in the neighborhood who didn't have to shovel the drive. When the plows came and buried the drives, I just climbed over it. Fuel mileage really does stink on this one though. I drive like an old lady mostly and I get 13 city and 17 highway/interstate. But, my wife gets 30 in her car and i still pay more a year keeping hers on the road. I've not changed anything but a wheel hub, tires, UV joint and battery. Not bad for 4 years of heavy driving.
