With any used vehicle its buyer beware. A newer model with less miles could possibly be in worse condition than an older model with 200,000+ miles, based on how people maintain them. Just see what the fluids look like before you buy listen for strange sounds and you or ur dad just make your best personal judgement, and if something does turn out bad with the jeep after you buy it. Then the part that we hate to love starts, FIXIN then BREAKIN then FIXIN and so on OH and i have 171,xxx on a 92

109,000 on my '97.

My son's '96 has 160,000.

One of my customers at a local quick lube is a Jeep guy.
Says he sees 4.0 Jeeps with well over 300,000, and never been torn down.

I hear "Timex" may have had input on the original design? LOL!!

1987 with 189,000+ miles, and no rebuild, uses no oil, leaks very little, & she still runs like a top!! The 4.0, no matter the year, is an indestructible power plant, if maintained well!!
