XJ all the way. Cheap and EZ to build. If you get a stock one and drive it, you'll get 20 mpg. I agree with the above posters on buying the cleanest, nicest XJ you can afford. On another note, call your insurance company and see which one would be more expensive to insure. Just another thought.

It's your choice obviously, but I got a 96 ZJ 4.0L and it is pretty darn good off-road and on the road. The engine is nearing 199,000 miles, and the mileage is WAY better than on my 3.7L Commander. Very peppy little engine, light on its feet even in 4WD, and I got it for $900.00
