Guess my baby has (hopefully) a long life ahead of her... sitting at about 107k on the clock
And yes... that 4th gear does make a big difference on the highway...it's nice she doesn't have to crank out that high of rpms to roll 55-65 mph.

I am trying to buy a cherokee sport but almost all of the ones iv'e seen for sale have anywhere from 170,000 to 220,000 miles on them. I want to buy one but i dont want it to fall apart on me and I don't have much money for repairs. The years iv'e seen were 1996-2001

If you want a XJ I would say look for 150K no more than 175K. seen them go well into the 200's. They are reliable, if you spend the money needed to keep them that way, especially if you plan to EVER take it off-road. But heres the kicker, If you don't want to spend $ on it for maintenance, look for something else. If you want something that won't need a lot of repairs or maintenance get something newer from Japan or Korea.
