1997 Jeep Cherokee review
I've owned many xj's over the years and the 97 has always been my favorite. Being the first year of the redesign with all the best from all the previous combined with a fresh interior and new body kit make it one of the most interesting of the XJ years. My current daily is a 97, I'm the 3rd owner and she's been meticulously kept with all records and just hit 170k miles. Compression between the cylinders is between 143psi and 149psi. Being a Montana car she hasn't been exposed to road salt and has literally no rust on the exterior. Under the carpet directly below the pedals is the only place I found any surface rust and that was easily cleaned up and painted before I added 204 square feet of sound deadening material. The road noise level would be my biggest complaint across all years of the xj.

1997 Jeep Cherokee review
Best car I have ever owned. Hands down! I am at 186,000 miles and have never had any major repairs, just your normal wear and tear. A radiator a few years ago and that’s about it. I love that it’s a manual transmission and that it has four-wheel-drive. I bought this car when I moved to Idaho in 2008. Every time it snows my four-wheel-drive is my best friend. Weekly I get asked if I’m willing to sell this car. The young people love it! The only downside for me was that it was two door which most people love but it was really hard to get my kids in and out of when they were little. But now it’s just me driving it and it’s just about perfect!
