Default I have joined the Jeep family...

And boy, am I excited.

Just bought my first car. A 1995 Jeep Cherokee. 4x4, auto, dark green in color. 160k miles on it. I put down 2400 (good deal? too late..)

I'm completely new to web forum communities, Jeeps, and fixing cars for that matter! I'm going to college in the fall but will be fixing, upgrading, and driving this thing every summer, break, and many weekends.

First things to do: fix a steering hose. change the oil. fix the rusted floorpans. fix bumper.

Pics will be up soon, the paint is still stunning on this thing.

I'm looking forward to being part of this community.

Here are some pics I took of it.














That's the outside. Not a whole lot wrong, a few minor scuffs, and the bumper has been bumped. Nothing that a hammer and some black spray paint can't fix.

So that's it. What do you guys think? What should I do to ensure longevity of the jeep?
