No better 4x4
Have 255,000 miles on my 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4x4 with the 4.0 - 6 cylinder, runs on regular gas. If you keep up on the maintenance, will last a long time, yes the 6 cylinder is a noisy old engine been around for 4 or 5 decades, but it will last 500,00 miles. If you are a off road driver then I would go for the V-8, however the 6 cylinder is so easy to work on and parts are cheap. Everything still works as it should except my fog lights, I think it is a fuse will fix when the weather is warmer, headlights work so well do not really need the fog lights. If you find one and it has been maintained grab it, if you find a fixer upper parts are cheap, and like I said the 6 cylinder is easy to work on.

Used 2004 Grand Cherokees are a bargain
I have owned a 2002, then sold n bought a 2004 a year ago. Heres the deal... if u want a commuter, buy something else. But if you live in desert and mountain terrain, for about 5/6 Grand u can buy a lightly used older GC. Most older ones have been beat up and under maintained. Take your time, find a coddled GC. Most folks ignore maintenance, beat em up, then tranny, transfer case and rear seals give u headaches with old fluid and neglect. With over 200k of them out there, be patient and get an absolute animal in bad weather. The Laredo is the only one that doesn’t have vent flapper problems, plus the base model has less to go wrong on. Change all ALL fluids belts, hoses after buying. Review brakes too. I added a 2 inch lift kit, big tires, and for $140 bucks added a new radio with blue tooth. Avoid non garaged GCs and go for NO rust. Be patient. Added seat covers just because from Costco for $25 bucks, new xenon headlights for $150, mats cost almost zilch, and added a $200 carrier on top, and a rear hitch and electrical for $175, for towing and bike rack. Shocks were 150. The styling is classic. So for about 7500-8000 i have a truck riding 4 wheeler that goes everywhere and looks and performs great. Compare it to new, for $40-50k, which i can easily afford, and save massive money. Park it anywhere and a scratch or ding, easily repaired, doesn't cause mental anguish. Tags n Insurance are super low. Unless rock crawling, they are a fraction of over priced wranglers, with way more comfort and peanuts on price, and go just about anywhere wranglers go. Hold out for the V8 if u can. My wife loves it, its an attitude, and snow, rain or dirt make it shine! So what if the gas mileage is in high teens and a few repairs come up, jeep parts are cheap! Its a tank on wheels, inexpensive, and very fun to drive after all the mild improvements. Invest the difference in an IRA or 401k and get rich.

Best Used Car For the Price
Bought this car at 142k, its currently has 145k, but the power is more than enough for highway driving, it will comfortably sit at 80MPH, seats are like a 20 year old couch, audio is great for being 15 years old, curbs and offroad is no issue, drive it from FL to MI, 19MPG, best purchasing decision ever at 3300, no rust since its an FL car.

Great Used vehicle
Purchased this 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.7 liter high output about 7 months ago. Had every option available. 10 disc cd changer, navigation, rock bars, sunroof, two tone leather. The wood trim looks great! The technology is now heavily outdated but still functions well! One problem since ownership began, power steering has been not functioning correctly but barely noticeable. Get stiff at low speeds, under 5 mph. Other then that, has been very reliable and has not once failed to start! Great off road as well, in the mud or rock. Stupidly drove in 32 inch of snow this winter, amazingly made it two miles home. Overall, I am very happy with the purchase and would recommend this Jeep to anyone in the used market!
