Default Good Deal?

155,000 miles, 1996 Cherokee Sport for $2500? Good deal if everything runs fine?

I hope it is. I want to be an official part of the Jeep community again!

No rust, oil leaks, and no electrical problems, sounds like a good deal.

if its all good and rust free, $2500 is a little high for a 96 IMO, I paid 1000 for my 92 and $900 from my GFs 96

I paid 2600 for my 96(talked him down from 3000). 120K rust free, and in good working order, so I'd say if everything works and it's clean, it's a good deal.

Edit: I'm also in Northern WI and rust free(body, there is some rust on the undercarriage, but to be expected with road salt) 4x4s are very rare up here(the age of our vehicles anyways) so I think it was a good deal. and 4x4s go for a premium up here at certain times of year due to our awesome winters.

So should I crawl under it to inspect for rust?

I just really want to put my current DD to sleep for a while. I just got in some big trouble with it.
