I bought this a few years ago because as a young man, I always liked em' and couldn't afford so I guess it was a mid-life crisis thing. I've driven Wranglers in the past but son was growing out of the jumpseat and granddaughters would be easier to load in second set of doors on the cherokee. I love the simple/reliable engine and drivetrain of these Jeeps. My granddaughters can crawl back and hook themselves up now and my son is driving his own truck, grown up and working full-time so the Wrangler will work again. Now enough of my story and on to the details of the truck.

This is an extremely clean Cherokee with everything working as it should, I mean that if you hit a window switch, lock or driving light switch, 4WD, AC, it works. I'm accused of being too picky and babying this truck, but that's just the way that I am regardless of what I'm driving. I have spent over $2000 (professionally)on bodywork/paint on the truck with two new doors on the passenger side(because they were rusted) everything else was cleaned up good and painted where needed. It's not perfect, but looks darn nice for an old Jeep. I don't have time to mention all of the "NEWS" in this truck but if it needed anything, it was done! From memory, I can remember replacing the rear brakes, rear half of exhaust, starter, 1000 amp battery, radiator, tranny filter fluid, valve cover gasket, seals on axles, shocks and HD springs w/Rough Country lift along with new Control bars, Adj track bar, extended sway bar links, 1" transfer case drop kit, sparkplugs, new 2" receiver hitch, 4- 70% Michelin radials, new driving lights, etc, etc. I have receipts for most everything I've done. I have spent well over $4000 on this Jeep in the past two years. The engine and trans both sound like new and operate that way with no issues, leaks, or oil burning. Does not burn or leak oil. Interior is very nice, non-smoking for it's life as far as I can tell(ash tray was clean when I bought it) with no smell or burns. Windshield was replaced when I had it painted to get rid of the sandblasted looking old one.

This Cherokee is a daily driver for me and starts(cold MN winters), runs and will drive you anywhere in the country, looking very nice doing it. I get tons of compliments while driving it. Mileage averages about 20mpg, a little less now in winter with the choke operating more. The only "negative" I can think of is that the truck has a slight vibration above 60 mph when the lift (3") was put in, local 4WD shop tells me that is normal and doesn't bother most, but that a "slip yoke eliminator kit" with completely clean that up. Vibration comes from increased angle on the driveshaft, 1" transfer case drop kit took care of most all of this. 4WD shop says I'm a picky @#$&^%!*&, I took that as a compliment. Most familiar with this engine/tranny combo know that it is capable of extraordinary miles with no real problems, and this one was maintained meticulously with Synthetics in the engine and both axles always. I'm buying another Wrangler, so take advantage of my little jewel. If you're into lifted Jeeps, save yourself the money and start where I left off, off road tires, etc. $5000 doesn't buy much of a vehicle anymore, but it will buy this one! My boys talked me into the lift I did put in. Hope somebody will enjoy this Jeep like I did. The Yakima roof rack and canoe carriers shown in photos are not included. Thanks for looking.

PS: After listing and reviewing the photos, I realized that the hard water spots and streaks show pretty bad from spraying it off recently. The finish when clean and toweled off is very nice

Jeep driver nearly gets washed away by fast moving river

Wed, May 11 2016

Just because you can do something doesn't mean that you should. For example, you should never attempt to cross a fast-moving river in a bone stock Grand Cherokee no matter how shallow the river looks. Especially if you don't know what you're doing. A video posted recently to the Facebook group Jeep EXPERIENCE, shows an inexperienced jeep driver learning that lesson the hard way. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. The video starts innocently enough, with a group of off-roaders watching one of their friends attempt to ford a shallow looking river. Things quickly go sideways however, when the driver of the silver Grand Cherokee just plunges right in and quickly gets in over his head. The river is moving faster than the driver thinks it is, the driver panics, makes some bad decisions, then the jeep is turned over and swept downstream. Eventually, the jeep is hauled out by a Land Rover after a long comedy of errors that involves one guy losing his trousers to the current and the Cherokee ingesting untold gallons of water. What went wrong here? Well, It's pretty obvious from the video that the Cherokee driver didn't have a clear idea of where he was going or about the condition of the riverbed. He chickened out halfway across the river, and in what appears to be a misguided attempt at turning back, he reverses, digs himself deeper in the riverbed, then turned broadside on into the current. When he changes his mind again and decides to just gun it for the opposite shore, he drives directly into a deep water hazard that would have been obvious to an experienced off-roader. At that point the jeep and the driver were doomed. Hopefully the driver learned a lesson here, and hopefully he didn't pollute that river too much with the jeep's fluids.

2019 Jeep Cherokee First Drive Review | Still the most truck-like crossover SUV

Wed, Jan 31 2018

The history of the SUV has been one of ever-increasing refinement, and that arc bends towards carlike forms. It's a trend that even the hardiest of nameplates has succumbed to, including the venerable Cherokee, which for 2014, moved from the solid-axle brick of yore to the shark-nosed, independently suspended crossover of modern-day. That wasn't necessarily a bad thing. We found it to be quite a competitive machine at the time, and one that was plenty capable. But time marches on, and five model years later, Jeep has updated the Cherokee. The polarizing shark nose has been toned down, with all the headlight elements integrated into single units on either side. The hatchback has been revised and now sports a cutout for the license plate. Besides improving the looks at the back, Jeep says it allowed them to expand the rear cargo area to 25.8 cubic feet, an increase of 1.2 cubes, because moving the license plate space allowed them to pull the latch assembly farther out. It should be noted, though, that the Cherokee still doesn't have as much cargo capacity as the new 27.2-cubic-foot Compass. Besides the cosmetic changes, the new Cherokee gets a new engine, a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder good for 270 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque that shares commonality with the Jeep Wrangler and Alfa Romeo Giulia engines. However, it lacks the mild hybrid technology of the Wrangler because of space issues, and it has a cylinder head with two camshafts rather than the Alfa's single-overhead cam design. In addition to the new 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, the Cherokee's old naturally aspirated engines, a 2.4-liter four-cylinder (180 hp, 170 lb-ft) and a 3.2-liter V6 (271 hp, 239 lb-ft), carryover unchanged except for the addition of standard engine start-stop functionality. The question is, can mild changes to the Cherokee keep it competitive in a segment where several rivals have been completely redesigned? In terms of capability, the answer is a resounding, "yes," particularly for the Trailhawk, which in turbocharged guise, has even shorter gearing for its low-range four-wheel-drive setting than before at 51.2:1. Like the previous model, the Trailhawk includes different front and rear bumpers for improved clearance and approach and departure angles. It features a set of skid plates and gets a steel oil pan for protection from obstacles, and the rear axle can be locked for additional traction.
