Ended up getting the 98. I dig it a lot. It's nice to be able to actually move forward while in the snow. Thanks for all the input guys.

138k. Got it at a used car lot. Pretty much traded my beat to hell caravan for it. So I'm happy. They replaced to water pump and ball joints too. I'm going to do a tune up and replace the hoses and whatever else looks in need of replacing. Really solid thought. Love driving this thing. I can't wait till we get a bunch of snow again.

Man, 138,000 sounds good for that year! I've never owned a Jeep, but researching now, and I see many with way over 200,000 for sale. Found that '02 Grand Cherokee, 4.7 V8 old boy asking $5,200 with 122,541 miles, and it looks great in photo he posted. Hope I can drive it soon. Keep us posted on that great one ye got.
