Default How long did it take..

To find your cherokee? I have been looking for about 8 solid months and have yet to find one in good condition that people arent asking a rediculous amount for. Like this one. http://cosprings.craigslist.org/ctd/3323375528.html Dealer wants 9K! I am losing hope that I am going to find something before the snow hits.

Took me around 10 months till I found the right one for me just keep looking. Personally I stay away from dealers they jack the prices way up.

When my 91 got wrecked, I found my 99 the same night on CL got her to hold it for me until I got the settlement straightened out. I got lucky. $1300 , 4.0, auto 231, sport with a sunroof. Interior is nice. Everything worked had 194k on it though. It'll last.

Jesus Christ! 7 thousand dollars?!

There's no way!

That MIGHT be a 4k dollar Jeep and that's if it's PERFECT.

You're trying too hard.

I mean if you have 7 grand to blow then go for it.
