  Really Like It!!! - 1999 Jeep Cherokee
  By lshlsh2 - June 14 - 1:10 pm

  Bought used and have had for a little over a year.Have put over 26k on it and had no problems. Ride is good for a truck with 2 axles. 4wd is great and have never been stuck. I-6 is strong but thirsty.One note I have added K&N filter system and have noticed a big improvment with fuel economy. Town went from 17 to 19-20mpg. Highway went from 19-20 to 22-25mpg. Might want to consider adding one to yours. Back seat is small and I have to watch my head getting in. After a local hurricane drove through about 20 inches of water no problem. No problem towing my boat. (1800lbs)

  Best car I ever owned - 1999 Jeep Cherokee
  By Jolena911 - June 12 - 12:23 pm

  I bought my FWD Jeep Cherokee Sport brand new in 1999. I had it for five years, put 90k miles on it and only did routine maintence. This was an awesome vehicle and I hated to get rid of it. The only down spots were hard plastic interior. Otherwise, it was an awesome vehicle. Im still hoping to pick-up another one used sometime soon.

  99 Sport - 1999 Jeep Cherokee
  By Tim - March 9 - 3:13 am

  Always wanted a Cherokee since the early 90s. Bought new in 99. Goes just about anywhere you want. Only problem was with the front windows. Both driver and passenger motor brackets broke within a year of each other and caused the window to drop to the bottom of the door. I pull a 2000 lb camper all over the Tennessee hills at 80 with no problems. Easy to work on or modify with uncountable parts available for greater off road performance. Limited only by your imagination. It is truly a shame that Jeep stopped making the Cherokee. Nothing else can compare.

  I have nothing but good to say about my XJ. It is easy to maintain, fun to drive and unstoppable offroad. I only get about 15mpg city but I am also a leadfoot.

  Solid Jeep - 1999 Jeep Cherokee
  By Mark - December 31 - 5:50 am

  This SUV is an amazing vehicle. The only way Im going to get rid of this thing is if I total it, which I dont plan on doing. This is a great drive, extremely capable, especially in snow, and is great to take offroad, and can make the transition back to pavement beautifully.

  What I think of My Jeep - 1999 Jeep Cherokee
  By Greg S. - November 3 - 10:00 am

  I have had my jeep Cherokee for about a year now and I love it. It; accelerates good, has power you can feel, handles really good with almost no body role, breakes extremely well, gets good gas milage, and is very comfortable to drive. I also love taking it offroad. I am huge offroader and I have yet to get this thing stuck. It has one of the best 4-wheel drive systems on the m,arket. It can go anywhere and do anything as is, with no modifications and even without allterain tires like mine(although allterain tires are recomended for all vehicles going off road). The only complaint I have about the Cherokee is that the center counsel/jocky box is a litle small.

  CANT BEAT IT!!! - 1999 Jeep Cherokee
  By slapstick - July 9 - 2:00 am

  I bought this jeep used with 26,000 on it and since then put 10,000 more. I have had no problems with the Jeep at all. I do notice a little bit of the clear coat starting to flake off but the Jeep dealer will take care of it. Before buying the cherokee I test drove a few other trucks around the same size and this was by far the best overall. It has plenty of power great off road capabilities and just fun to drive.

  An old work horse - 1999 Jeep Cherokee
  By pkelly502 - June 3 - 4:42 am

  Let me just start off by saying I love my JEEP! And there is no denying it this baby is a Jeep. Some people think the only real Jeeps are Wranglers but thats not the case, this bad boy even stock has the capability to do some pretty amazing things off road. The best part about this jeep is that while being able to take it for a fun weekend camping or 4x4ing is nice and easy its also a great car to drive on the road,in the city or on the highway. I have a 99 cherokee sport in automatic (not listed on this site if im not mistaken) and she has over 230,000 miles with nearly no major repairs aside from a starter and a new ac pump. And of course some body damage fixes but that my fault not hers

  Love my Jeep - 1999 Jeep Cherokee
  By pkamas - March 19 - 5:03 pm

  I love my Jeep! This is the best, most reliable, most fun vehicle I have ever had. Even more fun than a BMW 320I (had one of those -- thats another story). I have had this vehicle for 6 years; bought it new, never had a problem. The only time it was in the shop was when I hit a deer and wanted to get the grill fixed. Gas mileage is great for an SUV. I constantly go 320 miles or more on a tank. If its a road trip Ive gotten as much as 450 miles a tank. Not too bad! Love the Cherokee, I wish they would not have discontinued it, the Liberty is too cutesy, not my style. Great overall vehicle.
