Having always had Chevy's and still having 2 (S10 and a K5) parts were dime a dozen was the good part. The bad is the gas the K5 uses and the S10 have more things breaking than a jeep I think.
Always had fullsize Jeeps and Chevy's but now that I bought the ZJ's I'm not looking back.
I even shun the V8 I have and have grown to love the 4.0.
Good luck with it and good choice on the ZJ

My JEEP STALLES
I have a 97 grand cherokee 4x4 with the 6- 4.0 motor. It started to stall lately. After you run it and let it sit for awhile then restart it will stall out. After a bit its ok. Changed air filter and added injector cleaner, fuel should be ok, seems like some kind of vapor lock. I remember a friend of mine jeep did the same thing but can't recall what it was. Does anyone have any ideas it sure would help I would be thankfull. Thanks Marty brwaterdogs@aol.com

Welcome from OK! My s-10 always had something wrong with it. It used to short in the heater controls and that is why I finally sold mine. The 4.3 was solid, but so is the 4.0. The worst thing about xj's seems to be the electric door locks and power windows.

Of course you'll love your jeep more than a cheve. If you owned a ford then that might be a different kind of question
