  • AWESOME SUV - 2000 Jeep Cherokee
    By -

    These jeeps are great for everything and any road condition. Not too big and not to small. Just the right amount of storage and room. My Jeep drives great, and its fun. I would buy another one in a heartbeat. I wish they still made them.

  • Most Reliable Vehicle Ever Had - 2000 Jeep Cherokee
    By -

    My husband and I have had this Jeep for 4 years. Had 70k when we bought it, now it has 130k. Low miles for a 11 year old car. Weve had no major issues. Daytime running lights means you chance headlights often. Electrical sensor replaced under dash and a brake light sensor. Besides that just regualar maint. 4.0L is best engine Jeep ever made. My dad has a 96 like ours with 280k and still no issues. We expect to get 300k out of her too. Shes like a tank! Back seat a bit small for 6 footers but fine for short people/kids. Definately best buy for TMV.

  • Great Jeep - 2000 Jeep Cherokee
    By -

    I have a 2000 4dr 4x4 I bought used with 33,000 miles on it in 2003. This thing has been mechanically rock solid. Its getting older and my cruise control went out on me. But that is the only real problem Ive had and Im about ready to turn 90,000 miles of daily driver torture on this thing. Parts are super cheap and plentiful. Easy to work on. I still like driving this thing, and I look forward to snowy days. If I ever sell it I know I will miss it.

  • Great Car - 2000 Jeep Cherokee
    By -

    This car is extreamly reliable. I turned over 128,000 miles with minimal troubles. Nothing costly has gone wrong with it, still on origional engine and tranny. Leaks less than 1/2 a quart of oil a month in its older age,started around 115,000 miles but nothing too costly.

  • ONE TUFF JEEP - 2000 Jeep Cherokee
    By -

    Ive owned my jeep for about 8 years. Ive had no major problems to deal with since. Ive got mine hooked-up for off-road(4" lift w/32s and some bolt-on engine mods) its literally a beast on wheels. I can get through anything I want. I pass 50k$ SUVs going up the slickest of roads on my ski trips. I highly recommend to any one looking for an affordable off road vehicle. Gas-mileage stinks--- 13mpg combined, but its been very good to me, plus its paid off...

  • nice jeep - 2000 Jeep Cherokee
    By -

    This jeep is excellent for off road and climbing over 15inch rocks and then going down highway nice ride just the right automoble for living in New England. the anly thing is if you use reg. gas it get about 15 miles to a gallon if you put in super you get about 20 mpg. so I send a little more but get 30%better gas mileage

  • I love my jeep - 2000 Jeep Cherokee
    By -

    I love this jeep, I’ve had mine for almost 10 years now and it’s the best vehicle I’ve ever owned. It just a great all around little truck, it does it all from hauling 2X4’s to plowing through snow to a drive to the market. Besides regular maintenance and a bad sensor many years ago I’ve never put a dime into her. Starts every morning, never broke down on me. I’ve driven the grand Cherokee and the difference is unbelievable, my jeep feels so much studier and gripped to the road. I can go on and on, there is a reason they made this style jeep for almost 30 years, it’s just that good.

  • Good hunting rig - 2000 Jeep Cherokee
    By -

    My XJ has been a good hunting vehicle. With a minor lift and larger tires, It can go through just about anything. It sucks the gas and isnt the best for larger people to be in but it has a lot of cargo area compared to the TJs.

  • I miss my Jeep - 2000 Jeep Cherokee
    By -

    Toughest and most reliable vehicle I have ever owned, foreign or domestic. Had to sell it at 150,000 miles so I could get my wife a new vehicle, but it was still going strong. Tough, reliable and simple.

  • Still going and going - 2000 Jeep Cherokee
    By -

    This baby has never let me down. It even ran on little transmission fluid not once but twice. Two great stories. No major difficulties. I have kept the maintenance well and she has never let me down. Multiple trips from DC area to Buffalo in winter and no concerns. Great off road ability not like todays small SUVs (overgrown station wagons) A great reliable vehicle, Im glad I get to keep it and am upset I have to get a commuter car to save on gas. New brakes at 52000 miles, now have over 117k and no problems, still has original shocks, which do need replaced by now. otherwise, it keeps going. wish new jeeps were this reliable bring back the 4.0 or the equivalent diesel.
