Default Disapointed, my Cherokee VS. my Land Rover

I previously had a 1995 Land Rover Discovery, the truck was a blast, and I had fun going anywhere and everywhere with it, I just eneded up not being able to afford the gas (10mpg) and maintenance was becoming a problem (a lot of issues, of course lol) well, I got my 2001 Cherokee cuz I was missing a truck, and now have more money. One of my biggest complains is there is no flippin storage.. I mean there is a glove box and a center console. where am I supposed to store all my stuff? (maps and such) I am suprised that there is no seat storage or door storge. has anyone made anything for this?

here's a company that makes some for the XJ

http://www.doorpockets.com/

I totally agree with you on the storage issue. i had a 98 TJ before my XJ and there was door pockets, and map pockets on the seats as well, the XJ doesn't even have that.

rule of thumb on XJ storage: if it can't fit into the "hiding spaces," you then you don't need it. everything else just finds its way to the floor.
