Default Should I buy it?

I've been looking for my 1st Cherokee and there hasn't been much where I live but I fd a 92 4.0 has 119xxx. It's a limited and appears to be in good condition. I want something decent sitting on the driveway, so don't want a total beater. I want to do the damage lol. Problem is its gng for 5k. What should I offer? Looks slightly lifted, good for now. Thx

5000 seems a bit steep. Aso as buying you first cherokee id buy it stock with 0" of lift what so ever just so you know whats been done to it and you know what its been through on the trails

Id go up to 2500 provided everything was perfect. I mean a 92 is a 21 year old vehicle, 5 grand is a bit much.

I feel like I overpaid for mine at 2900 for 99 w/ 169k

What general area of the country do you live in?

5000 is retarded for a 92 unless its caged, lifted, locked, and has brand new 40's on tons. I second the idea to get one with no lift.

I was thinking of offering 2800, thought I'd get expert opinion. Thx I also fd a 93 completely stock and clean w/174xxx for 2400 but It's stick. Should I stick w/auto? Mainly for trails and hunting use.

lift is only a grand at most its still not worthy of 5k. If the mileage was below 60k maybe.

I offered 2800 they replied kkb shows 3600. It's pretty much as high as I want it. Maybe 3200?

Kelley blue book overprices vehicles for the most part I wouldn't go higher than 2800 . Hardest and most effective way of negotiating is being able to walk away
