welcome to the forum and to xj's

they are great vehicles if maintained

i give it 6 months after you own a cherokee you have a lift and rims/tires

you will love them, only words i can say...dont expect more than 15-17 mpg out of it after your lift and rims/tires.

but expect 300k miles out of the ole girl

Welcome, x2 on the mpg. They are a blast, tons of aftermarket support, and most aftermarket stuff is priced right.

Keep us posted with progress.

The dealer wanted 6 grand plus the hidden 400$ dealer fee and 300 some for tax so the hunt continues!
