Had 242,000 when I first posted here 4 years ago,jeep is still going strong with about 320,000.Drove her all the way to Alaska from TN three years ago and in less then one week I will be driving Alaska to AZ.Still doesn't use fluids and the only thing that's not working is the rear window wiper.All original other then the transfer case,switched the 231 out for a 242 before I moved to Alaska.I plan to keep her till she dies and then new motor time😁.

My first post here. Wife wanted a Jeep, got it, 92 Cherokee Laredo, power everything, got it for $800.00 had 358,xxx when we got it and it has 362,xxx now. I didn't want to get it but had an 87 and liked it. I know that Straight 6 lasts forever and the wife is freaking brutal on all things that turn ON. So going to put some money in it and pray she doesn't destroy it like every other car we have had.

230k and you can tell 
Engine and transmission run great and other than a few quirks I love it! Funny thing is I bought the car for a second vehicle in case of a breakdown, dirty job site etc but I've been driving it more than my car.

I paid $800 for mine which imo was a good price for a running vehicle with just a few little issues. I've put maybe $500 in repairs into it plus the usual stuff like tires, brakes, tune up and alignment. I'll say all together I've spent around $1,800-2,000 getting it to where it is today. Not bad considering Wranglers around here cost around 5k+ for 200k miles. About the only thing else I have to do is the axle shaft u-joint and some new shocks all around O and charge the A/C system and flush the heater core. Financially it was stupid as heck to buy this thing but everytime I drive it I have a smile on my face so that's all that matters.
