Re: MODERN Jeep questions - used Jeeps ( Cherokee / Laredo ), longevity

[<mail@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

SHOP! SHOP! SHOP!
I bought a 97 Cherokee Sport with 52,000 miles on it for $6500 last November the weekend before Thanksgiving, The height of the fourwheel dirve sales season!
  I found many more similar deals too. All the vehicles we look at had between 52,000 and 76,000 miles and where priced between $6200 and $8700 dollars. We looked at Jeep Cherokee Sports between 97 and 99. 
  We are only about a 4 hour drive from you Jerry. Get out of that area and shop!
