  The best vehicle ever built! - 1998 Jeep Cherokee
  By jeep lover - January 16 - 11:13 am

  I have driven my Cherokee to hell and back, and it still keeps ticking. Yeah, I rides like a tank, leaks some, and does not get the greatest mpg, but it is the most reliable vehicle I will ever own. It has never left me stranded, stuck, or regretful. After 200000 miles, I still get the same mileage, and performance as I did when I bought it. Great project vehicle, and daily driver. I recommend anyone to buy it. Mobil, Lucas, K&N. Total cost of repair at 200,000+ miles--$2000, minus wear and tear (plugs, oil,tires, etc.).

  Lot of Miles - 1998 Jeep Cherokee
  By RDS - December 23 - 5:30 am

  I bought my Jeep new and now have 178000 miles on it. I have done very little maintenance on it other than regular stuff like oil changes etc.. I get around 23 mpg with the 4.0 six/5 spd. I still have the original clutch in it. I wish they still made the Cherokee.

  The end of an era - 1998 Jeep Cherokee
  By Old Bear - December 9 - 11:20 am

  Rugged tough vehicle with plenty of power on tap. Well built and gives you plenty of street cred. Yes, it is rather juicy but what else would you expect from a four litre engine. What I loose in fuel bills I save in general repair costs. Why on earth did they stop making them?

  Its a Jeep - 1998 Jeep Cherokee
  By Rodney - November 4 - 7:33 pm

  Purchased 98 Jeep in 06 with 70,000 Ks in Australia. Have spent last 3 years towing a caravan on a mobile ministry and wouldnt replace it. Now has 135,000ks on the clock and apart from servicing hasnt cost anything. Looks like it will go forever, God willing.

  Theres Only One !!!!!!!!! - 1998 Jeep Cherokee
  By XXXOnly OneXXX - August 31 - 2:00 am

  Well.... If your reading this youre probably looking to buy one. Ive owned a 1995 Cherokee Country, 2000 cherokee and now I just bought a 1998 Cherokee Sport and its a cream puff. The Jeep is a trully on/off road vehicle.EX: Blizzard of 1996 (Remember)almost 4ft of snow and guess what I was pulling Fords and Chevys out of snow banks after they spun out and ended up on the side of the road stranded.Its a rough ride but one of the most reliable vehicles on the Market.If your looking for a soft and Luxury ride buy a Lexus or Lincoln water bed.

  I LOVE MY JEEP!!!! - 1998 Jeep Cherokee
  By abe2139 - February 12 - 2:00 am

  I have never owned or seen another vehicle that can get around in the snow and ice like my jeep can. I live in a very wintry weather area and have never once worried about getting stuck.

  Best used car I ever owned after 25 years of driving. Zero maintenance vehicle, fun to drive steady, easy to handle, stable on all kinds of roads.

  JP 98 Jeep - 1998 Jeep Cherokee
  By JP34 - September 29 - 10:00 am

  I have had my 1998 Cherokee Sport for just over a year, and really like it. With the baby and dog, we still have adequate room for my wife and I. I am 63" 240 lbs and have always been comfortable. Just took an 1800 mile trip and had no problems and good mileage for a 4 wheel drive.

  Bring it back!!! - 1998 Jeep Cherokee
  By Chris - July 29 - 6:26 pm

  Bought it with 55K, put a clutch in it shortly after due to previous owner. Now has over 130K. Mechanically more reliable than anything on the road, but the body is rusting pretty bad. Only weak points are the saggy rear leaf springs, all you owners know what Im talking about! Relatively cheap aftermarket fix though :) Getting hard to get factory parts for due to Chrysler going haywire.
