Jeep, can't beat em!

Jeep will get you through everywhere you want to go. Up hills, off road, winter weather, summer weather, on a farm, in the city. And you look cool driving it.

The most comfortable car I drove....

This is a great SUV, not too big, comfortable and very stable. We drove it from DC to Florida and back and had no issues.

Good except for the cylinder head.

The car stock will allow you to do light offroading with ease while being fun to drive on the road. The model years 00-01 have a faulty cylinder head which tends to crack between cylinders three and four. Other than that, there's not much you need to watch out for. It's also very easy to work on.

Best Vehicle for Camping

Great for the intended purpose of exploring and camping. The pre 2001 Jeep is rugged for off road. Easy to self service if you are so inclined.

Best drive train Chrysler ever made

I currently have 3 of these and have owned many others. In my part of the country, they are a great choice, economical, versatile, relatively bulletproof and fun. They have never left us stranded.

The Most Reliable Vehicle EVER

Cherokee translates to "those who live in the mountains" and the Jeep Cherokee lives up to its name. The Inline 6 engine is incredibly reliable.

2001 Jeep XJ

Amazing and reliable vehicle. They hold their value at this point for a 17 year old car. The repairs you will have to do are minor and the engine and transmission are both strong and reliable. Mine was well kept and very little rust. I get lots of compliments and offers to buy it! Classic styling, rides very smooth on stock suspension. Great visibility out all windows.
