  Over 200,000 and still the best - 1999 Jeep Cherokee
  By josh.w - August 16 - 7:23 pm

  I got this great suv in march of 2010 for my first vehicle. I love the style and ride with the 4.0 L 6 cylinder. Its easy to drive and great for a new driver. Mine has over 200,000 miles and still sounds great. I wish jeep still made these because they are the best.

  faithful classic cherokee - 1999 Jeep Cherokee
  By liberty stinks - August 15 - 10:00 am

  I have not had one single major problem with my classic cherokee. When I compare this Jeep to other peoples driving experiences I feel very lucky because I have had far less problems with it than anyone I know. My cherokee has been more loyal to me than some friends of mine! I love my Cherokee, and I am saddened I wont be able to buy a new one when her time is up; but at the same time I am proud to know in a few years that my Jeep will be known as a real classic.

  Okay so far... - 1999 Jeep Cherokee
  By boobear - July 27 - 10:00 am

  "Inherited" Cherokee Sport when my dad passed away with 32k miles - so far been very happy with it. Quite a change from a 4 cyl. Nissan Sentra (including the gas bill)! Great acceleration, 4WD worked very well in slushy mess on steep hills. Wish fuel economy was better and back seat had more leg room. Other than that, good "utilitarian" SUV.

  ok - 1999 Jeep Cherokee
  By chelsie - July 15 - 1:10 am

  My parents bought my 99 Cherokee sport in 2000, drove it for about 5 years, and then handed it down to me. It now has 140,0000 miles on it. I have no complaints about how it runs, never had any problems with that. However, the ac has stopped working, the front speakers blew out, the rear windshield wiper doesnt work, and the handle that pops that hood was so sticky, that mechanics changing the oil completely pulled it off and now the hood wont latch and I have to put a ratchet strap around it to keep it down. It gets me from place to place, but thats about it.

  Love it - 1999 Jeep Cherokee
  By jackie - December 15 - 10:00 am

  Yes, I love it. Kicks ass in the snow! No major problems, just power windows were replaced. Always reliable and fun to drive. Has the feel of a car, but has the room of a wagon.

  No Problems - Only Fun - 1999 Jeep Cherokee
  By scottyindenver - April 27 - 10:00 am

  Since I bought my Jeep Ive not had any problems other than having to replace the windshield because of the rocks and crap on the roads in Colorado during the winter months. I have had to do brake maintenance more often than most do but I also drive 40 miles one way to work from Denver up into the Rockies 5000 feet (coming down that hill every night takes a toll on the brakes). It has been a lot of fun to own - definately glad I replaced my Chevy S- 10 Blazer with the Jeep.

  175k and still going strong...! - 1999 Jeep Cherokee
  By 1goodjeep - March 8 - 9:26 pm

  I purchased my 99 Cherokee Sport in July of 2005. It had 166k on it when I bought it, and its now nearing 175k. Only things Ive done to it is put a bigger set of tires on it and a serpentine belt. After totaling a new TrailBlazer last February and getting into the Jeep, it is quite a bit smaller, but gets far better gas mileage. Handling is way better then the TrailBlazer also. I guess I lucked out when I found my black Cherokee. It has the 4.0L with the 5 speed, and it downright HAULS with the manual. Its no nonsense exterior design makes this Jeep awesome in the woods. VERY easy to maintain. Sure its loud, not very comfortable, and somewhat small ... but hey its a Jeep and thats what a Jeep is.

  By babsj - January 26 - 10:00 am

  No major problems. Maneuverable, consistent, dependable, sporty with comfort. I still smile when I drive it! A reliable classic design stands the test of time and serves me well.
