New DD- 97 Cherokee
 
Since I am probably insane, I sold my 84 fiero that my dad and I did a complete motor and trans rebuild on. Was running very well...
And I bought this hunk of junk :biggrin:
http://i291.photobucket.com/albums/l...ps0744925f.jpg

Bought a new set of wheels and tires. Have new bumpers and plastics for it (not on yet). Power steering pump and idler pulley replaced. Needs a very small lift, interior cleaned, and probably the hood repainted.

Getting an inch, don't want it to look lifted... I know I'm crazy.

Nice! I really like that color. I may buy another one sometime...
They really do seem to be reliable. I have 16x,000 miles on mine, does fine. How many miles on yours?

In my family we have a 2000 jeep grand Cherokee that has been passed around and has 210,000 miles on it. I just paid for a new radiator and a new ignition module, other than the basic oil changes its been running great.

I really like that body style Cherokee and might pick one up as a winter beater whenever I get a house. But around this area they all overpriced IMO for a decent one.

I love those boxy Cherokees, my fave is the rare 2 door model. I was living FL in the 90s and this was when gas was still cheap I had the chance to buy a 2 door rear drive with the 4.0 6 and auto tranny but the guy wanted too much $$$ for it :(.

They're super cheap now!

I'm thinking of selling our Jeep Grand Cherokee, mom said she wants something that is better on gas. I'm against it because it floods here in Houston and I know that as long as she drive the Jeep she will do way better than most cars.
