Default JUST out of curiousity ... What is the longest

or highest mileage with regular normal maintenance, that is no replacing of engines, transmissions etc, that anyone one has seen a standard Jeep Cherokee achieve?

I know of one a friend has that is a daily driver and he has just run over 211,000 with it and never done anything but religiously change oil and due tune ups.
I have just turned 160,000 on mine and other than the usual stuff, it is going great.

just curious of what they can really get to before they need serious help.

My Xj has 146k and something breaks down about every 2000 miles. I have never had a more unreliable vehicle in my life, so count mine out, hehehe.
