I understand that to a point. But considering the sale thread here it seems to be about 2 grand more than it sold for a year ago.

There's a lot wrong with it for that price. I towed it down to my mechanic and he checked it out. It has two misfires, needs a whole new wiring harness. All 4 ball joints. Leaf spring bushings. And then just a lot of little time things. Just letting you know.

Thanks for the heads up. I would expect that price if it had tons under it. Kinda sucks it has all those problems.

I'm just looking for a Cherokee that's built but reliable enough to be a DD on occasion and to the trail and back. I live in Wellington so it would get driven to the base in Cheyenne and back.

Finally got my tow hooks intalled on the front. Was waiting for those before I got too adventurous. Now I need to get up and use it.

We live in the subdivision north of the pennzoil. Seems like all Cherokees around here bring a premium that need more work than it leads on.
