Yeah Chrysler needs to do a tribute Cherokee like an off road machine like the ford raptor. (im not a ford guy but that thing is sweet) The Cherokee is one of the greatest vehicles made. It's crazy they quit making them in 01 and they are still quite expensive and there is still so many on the roads. I really do think they need to do a tribute Cherokee.

Btw that article is awesome.
