That 2000 Cherokee Classic is right.Always thought those wheels were sick. Props, man. Keep that thing rocking! Those additions should make it even moreCan never go wrong with the Cherokee.
I've had my Wagoneer since summer '01 - found it in the newspaper. Had my mechanic check it out, then slapped some new Michelin XW4's on it and been going ever since.
I haven't driven it much the past year. Needs a new fuel tank skid plate and a couple minor things but it'll still get down. If you ever come across one to buy, look for rust at the skid plate (if it gets bad enough, the gas tank will sink out over time as the straps and plate itself become less able to bear the weight), look for rust at the panels behind the rear tires (if the grommets that hold in the roof rack are dry-rotted they can let in water which will run into those wheel wells), and make sure the carburetor is either new or recently rebuilt and adjusted properly. Aside from these things, the GW is bulletproof reliable. AMC 5.9L V8, Chrysler Torqueflite 727 transmission, Selec-Trac shift-on-the-fly full-time 4WD, full-size SJ ladder truck frame... it's a tank. Love this truck.
The YJ Wrangler (1987-1995) is my favorite Wrangler. Love everything about it, from the square headlights to the utilitarian dash and instruments. I've been fortunate to drive various Jeeps over the years and two of my friends had YJ's. It's THE Wrangler. The new ones today are pretty awesome but the YJ is still the best in my eyes. Now you got me wanting to go find one.
Still would like to find a ZJ Grand Cherokee. Someone in my family used to have a 98 GC Laredo in Driftwood and it was just sickness. I got to drive it a lot so that helps.
I'm a Jeep NUT so I could have a stable of like 10 and still want more. My dream is to have a new Commander, a 98 GC, another XJ, a YJ, and still have my 01 XJ and 89 SJ.
I'll be driving Jeeps the rest of my life, no doubt.
I can't stand the new Jeeps except the Wranglers.. If its not boxy, it's not a Jeep.
3 of my boys have Jeeps...2 XJ, and 1 GC..
My boy with the GC is tryna find the one with the 5.9..He's dying to find one..
I'd love to get either another XJ or a YJ..Most definitely want the High Output in it though
Nice to see another person whos into Jeeps on here..
