As I said before, my hubby and I are newbie Jeep owners to a 99 Cherokee Sport 4wd. What are you love/hate stories for this model?

 

i got a 98 classic myself and the only thing i hate is the gas mileage, 11.3 mpg highway .

 

well thankfully you have a 99 so your at least have cup holders..

you cannot really expect to get great gas mileage unless you have a 4 cyl.

only real complaint with mine is there is no real storage space in the cab other than the center console

 

The only 2 things I hate about the Cherokee.... no cup holders until 1997 and they discontinued building them completely in 2001.

 

I love my Cherokee. I love it better than my Durango. I'm frustrated with it right now cause I'm converting it from a 2wd to 4wd and I'm having some problems. But other than that its been a great vehicle and I plan on keeping it a long time.

 

..I always wondered why they even MAKE 2wd jeeps!

 

they made it for old people. My jeep was my grandpa's work vehicle and when he die my grandma gave it to me. So I fixed it up.

 

Good deal. I always wondered

 

I asked the same question awhile back. Why does Jeep bother with 2wd.

 

The 2WD versions were very popular in urban settings for work and delivery use. Most of the time those vehicles would have never used the 4WD if it were included and thus the 2WD version is less complicated and cheaper to produce so AMC built what was in demand. At least that is the story I have heard.

 

REALLY???? holy moly, thats the worst gas mileage i've ever heard of on a cherokee, ummmmm maybe i should get a wrangler then????

 

Blue you know everything.

 

11.3! thats crazy, even with a huge lift i could never see a cherokee doing that bad...

 

how did you figure out your gas mileage.

 

My gas mileage is incredibly ****ty right now, right around 9-10 in the city, but in all fairness its only a 7 mile commute to work and theres about 9 stop lights on the way
