:notbad: new front end but doesn't the profile look pretty much like the current one?

I readily admit that I don't speak :jeep: well.

I liked the alien face of the Cherokee so much that I actually went braved the :doge: dealership experience to test drive one. This looks generic. Whatever. They sold an assload of the last ones because cheap, despite horrible transmissions and weak base engines. This will be no different, new face or not.

Yea ... at worst it'll be worth 10k in a year... so it is a far better purchase fiscally speaking.

Thats a nice rig that will likely hold or even slightly increase in value. Solves your issues. Id take a hard look at that and then get a Civic Sport and call it a day for cars....

Cloth and roll up windows? $14 grand for a 19 year old vehicle? Who are you and what have you done with Maximillion Zukhov?

Looks like it was really well taken care of. I bet it rides decent with those fancy Fox shocks too. And roof rack for the bike! :wub:

I had Fox shocks on my XJ back in the day and they were fantastic. Absolutely worth paying more for.

Still, the poverty with this one is just too much. This is a $3k vehicle tops.

I MIGHT shell out 10 for it due to it's condition. But that's about it.

I think cloth and roll up windows are acceptable at 14k but not 41k

Check out the Mopar lift. It does just that.
