I'm taking a pretty serious look at a 2001 Jeep Cherokee 4.0L 6 cyl. 4WD "Limited" model. I've been able to find them with anywhere from 35K miles to well over 300K miles, but am really concentrating on getting one with 50K-75K miles. I've found several in pristine condition but I'll have to travel to get it.
I'd love to hear comments from those of you who have experience with this vehicle. A lot of comments on the web seem to indicate it's a very reliable car.
I may be moving to an area of the country that gets quite a bit of snow - as in, you risk getting stuck on some roads over the higher mountain passes unless you have 4WD or you're waiting for the plows to push through.
Anyway, would like to hear about anything that went wrong with your Jeep, if it was easy to repair, etc. I have my eye on one that has 75K miles, not one spec of rust anywhere (including the undercarriage) and looks basically mint inside and out. The one with 35K miles on it is wayyyyy too expensive but I guess with most new 4WD SUVs running in the $30-$35K range, it might be worth it to get a basically new Jeep at under half that price.
