Don’t fall into the greed pit
BAHAHAH IM BUYING ONE TOMORROW FOR TWO GRAND wish me luck!
Hi .. how are you?? I'm from Yemen.. I like your videos and I'm looking for the video you made about bosch scan tool few weeks ago I couldn't find it.. my regards
I had a 1985 4 door 4×4 Limited, weird that had a GM 2.8 Engine, a Hard Work Horse,🐎 yeah, it was White, looking good with Chrome Grill & Tinted Windows! Sad that turn So Expensive like most of Used Good Cars!
I guess I'm kind of off topic but do anyone know a good place to stream newly released series online ?
The Cherokee was still a good looking vehicle back then.
I'm on my 5th Grand Cherokee and have about 1.5M miles total with no major problems. (1984-2021)
Its a fuckin box.
They were all boxy.
@@hououinkyouma5539 much better looking than all the egg-shaped trash of today!
It still looks pretty good
@@generalzod7959 I don't know about that, but they both look pretty great to me
Should have never got rid of that 4.0 straight six. One of the best engines ever.
Straight six in general seems to be pretty reliable. Same thing with the Ford 300 CI/4.9L.
Damn straight, the 4.0 is truly a legendary engine
Faxx
@@appalachiangunman9589 straight sixes are naturally balanced engines. That's why they tend to last so long
@@wigletron2846 also only one head gasket, one valve cover, half as many camshafts, timing chains and gears, ect.
The XJ is my favorite body style i love it .
What years are this?
@@dodgeapache2262 what year what ? What you mean ?
@@dodgeapache2262 if you mean the XJ body style it started from 1984 to 2001 the XJ replaced the SJ body style in 1984.
Designs of the compact-size XJ Cherokee date back to 1978 when a team of American Motors (AMC) and Renault engineers drew several sketches. - Wikipedia
Those were awesome vehicles. An old work colleague had one, and he had 340k miles on it. Still had the original 4.0 HO inline 6 and AISIN transmission. He actually bragged about it having the same transmission as the 4 Runner.
i have 329k miles on my AW4 and 4.0. Bruh are complete stock and still going ever though i beat the thing off-road and on road. for a 24 year old jeep now it’s in amazing condition no rust or dents. Just basic trail damage
I had a 99 cherokee .....today I drive a 4runner. Guess I like boxy ....relaiable SUV's ?
I had 1999 and passed it on to a granddaughter. She called it the Beast ! I still want another one, just because.
I should say, in 2006 I bought it for 7,000, and got $5,500 for it this month. Can't beat that.
That’s awesome. I had a 99 and my younger brother is still driving it today. 4.0 is a great engine and nearly bulletproof.
One of the best American cars ever made. A 99' Cherokee was my first car.
Just bought an 01 Sport a month ago. Kept up with well, a beast on wheels.
Agreed. Can't beat that engine.
Step dad had one first vehicle I drove started off as a first driver
Just bought my second 98. Gonna get a 2001 2 door if I can
Jeep is junk
This man's sense of humor is A1
My favorite vehicle. Had a 1998 XJ, when I was done with it, it had 460,000 miles and major rust issues. Fella bought it and put the 4.0 liter and automatic transmission in a 2000 and it's still running strong 2 years later.
A lot like the story of my 1994 XJ. 443k miles on mine before the rust on the rear spring mounts made it unsafe to drive. My Jeep's parts helped others live on, and the engine/trans/EFI will soon help resurrect an Alaskan Postal Jeep (CJ-8).
@@AKJeeper Very cool 👊✌ "It's a Jeep Thing"! Gotta love the Scrambler, I prefer them to the new Gladiator.
I inherited a 98 sport, 112K miles on her.
Here's one for you. A/C went out on my 1995 Jeep Cherokee. No money for a $800 repair, and I thought there was probably a leak, so I just drove it for three years until finally I was prepared for the worst. Took the car in and left it. While I explained the issue, I slipped up and told the guy that I wanted it fixed even if it costs $1200, due to a brain arimthmia I guess. So, anyway, I waited, and he called me back a couple of days later. Immediately I remembered telling him to fix it no matter the cost, so I prepared myself. At that he began, saying, "Yeah, umm sir, I took a look at the Jeep A/C." So, I gritted, and I'm ready now. Probably a blown head gasket too. The wallet is open. So, anyway, he says, "Well, yeah, uh, well........you, uh, had............TOO MUCH refrigerant in the system." PAUSE. "Yeah it won't work if there is too much." PAUSE. WAIT.....WHAT? My turn, "This is a thing???" "Yes sir, it's working now." WHAT? Thoughts race through my head, "Am I supposed to charge him for the extra he took out?...I don't understand what is happening right now. This is not how things work in the world. It's a joke, April fools, Halloween. WHAT? I hadn't had refrigerant added to the A/C system in years, and there is too much?" I knew it was leaking and trashed and finally would be paying for a serious repair. Crazy. 27 years with the Jeep, and I have still only replaced a water filter and brake calipers. Even still has the original muffler. Surprisingly durable with the special added extra of the Toyota transmission. By the way, the U.S. Forest Service and U.S. Parks Service made good use of these, too. This Jeep is a great beater if there ever was one!
95 xj country still kicking i will keep it to the wheels fall off,,lol
Everybody used them...fire depts, US mail, police .....they were solid suv's
Been here last year got mine posted on fb rn
I owned 2 of those. The 2001 was factory right hand drive. I was a Rural Letter Carrier for 30 years. One of the best vehicles I ever owned.
Bought a 99 4- door with engine blown in 05 .my daughter agreed to help change engine, we did ,best one out of 3 different rides. She's changed her own oil from 16 yrs. Old .it's kool to see common sense in young people. We've helped other young people to learn to change their oil too .they were thankful. Proud of a lot of the young ones. GOD bless ya'll from hooterville,n.c.
I bought one of these when they first came to the UK in 1993. It was a 4.0 litre Limited. I did 30,000 miles a year for 2 years, I drove it hard and it didn't miss a beat. Fantastic vehicle.
I once had a 1988 Cherokee Chief 2-door with 4x4, 4.0, 5-speed, and the spare on the tailgate. I still miss that vehicle.
Another prime example of
“If cars could talk”
Ole Jeep has got some stories.
Scotty just made the old Cherokees even more expensive than they already are😭
A lot of rusty's out there for cheap.
They go for nothing where I live
@@lefthanded5473 unfortunately I live in California, everyone wants $5,000+ for them
Bro these XJs are now considered classics and they are probably the most off-road capable stock vehicle ever made so they are going for tons of cash right now. I know someone in LA selling one right now for 4Gs and it's a two door. I already have one but I might get myself another 😂
@@eddieperez7683 I wanted one but I couldn’t find one, either they are too expensive or they sold instantly. So I just bought a 4runner
My former mail man drove one to deliver mail, I thought it was so cool and his was red too!
92' XJ still running like a top. Small lift, upgraded axles, and beefier tires they're almost unstoppable. Love my XJ.
I just got a 1996 jeep Cherokee limited in green auto… I love it, it’s a great car, I think I’ll drive it forever.
I have a 96 XJ here in Australia. 412,000k on the original engine and auto. They are still very common on the roads here.
Pretty common in upstate ny as well, I own 2
@@bradlaflamme6127 I actually bought a second one I liked mine so much
@@tcbgarage2845 i sold my original one, bought a new truck, then bought another xj and my old one back. I personally think the xj Cherokee is one of the best vehicles ever made in North America. And the best in their price range.
@@bradlaflamme6127 well it’s the only American vehicle I’ve ever owned so I can only compare to cars I’ve had. But they beat my FJ60 easily and are equal to my beloved Aussie Falcon.
Agreed, the whole country has gone greedy nuts.
Same all over. On my street (I am in a small city in Canada), a 3 bdrm house in a middle of the road neighbourhood went for 160K over asking.
@Dave McDonald
Same in Australia too!
My '99 Cherokee (4.0/5 speed manual) still runs like a top. I gave it to a friend two years ago so I still see it regularly.
got same
I have three 1995 Cherokees. XJs for life!
We need to see Scotty and his Celica featured on Jay Lenos Garage
Seriously
@tailsko "pandemic"
MY MANS HAS A 94 HE GOT IN 96. NOTHING INSIDE WORKS BUT THING STILL RUNS LIKE A TOP
Love these old cherokees. Sold mine with 270,000 original miles… then bought another one lol. Thank god before the prices shot up.
Up here in NH a lot of the postal services still drive the white righthanders.
I love my 1995 XJ. 306,000 miles on my 4.0 HO. Still going strong, and my AC works too 🤣
I remember liking those 90s boxy Jeep Cherokees. Was never sure about the quality, but I would have bought one if I knew how solid they were.
Buy one with 230k on it you are still getting a great ride. Mine has 250k and runs and drives great. Stay away from anything 2000 and newer
My mom has a right hand drive Cherokee that she delivers in too. Hers is a 2000 and doesn’t have any issues. Has over 140k on it.
Same dude I got 230k on mine tho😌
Just Over 140k is not much on most vehicles.
This video is a tribute to the enduring legacy of the Jeep Cherokee XJ. What a fantastic showcase!
i still have my 97 XJ. It still runs strong! 250k miles on it.
Jeep Cherokee's w/the 4.0L engine are bulletproof. This engine was in production for decades & goes back to the Rambler days. I had one in a '99 Cherokee & a 70s Gremlin..same engine & they run & run. No wonder you see lots of Cherokees still on the road today, even though production ended in 2000. An American classic !
Love mine. It's going to rust away before engine dies and I don't know what I will do without it. I hate all of the newer stuff.
People around here in Michigan love these Jeeps. Never seen one in that good of condition though, gotta love rust lol. Keep up the good work Scotty! 🙏
1987 XJ they gave that beast not only higher suspension but dropped the legendary 4.0L V6 into it. Only down side to the Jeep Cherokee is the steering goes but can easily be fixed and you got to watch out for frame rot
My wife had a left hand drive Jeep Cherokee in 01 with the 4.0 motor and Auto transmission. We still see it occasionally being driven down the road.
Scotty I have a 2017 Nissan Sentra Nismo 6 speed standard transmission. Bought it brand new it now has 4,100 miles on it. A guy offered me $18,000 dollars for it!!! It's not for sale but it's crazy that the prices of new and old cars are skyrocketing.
You should have sold it.
Hello Scotty, greeting from Japan🇯🇵. True
15 years back when new, now white is the most popular color for cars (including luxury one). Interesting enough, here the post vehicles are all red like this Jeep. It would make a perfect postal vehicle 🤣
This is why I bought my 98 XJ. 4 liter, 4 speed Aisin, NP242 select track transfer case. Has rust but its fixable. I love the thing. Bought mine in Upstate NY and brought it to Michigan lol. Mine is gonna be a highway hauler with a built in camper :D I like that I can go into 4wd up to 55mph with a LEVER! Not a button that wont work. Original Mitsubishi starter motor still works. 176k miles. 1k$ cash.
My cuz had one with (1993) 210k. Rusted right through the floorboard. Put in a new piece of steel and kept running like a champ. Still was good when he sold it later with even more mileage. Tanks!!!
My brother has a 97 Cherokee with the online 6 and it currently has 321k miles on it! Runs and sounds like a cranky old clunker but it goes down the road!
Have a '99 Cherokee with the 4.0L 5spd. Still runs great.
I had an 89 Cherokee and drove it 300k ... then bought a Black 2000 Cherokee sport ... still driving it with 250K on it it ... it looks and drives like it just drove off the showroom floor ... but I've also taken very good care of it ... mostly rebuilt from the ground up by me including a new headliner ... religiously changed the oil every 3k miles ... alloy wheel with new Wranglers on it ... AC still works (new compressor at 180k)
Thank you for the content, Scotty! All the best to you and yours
Love our '93 XJ!
I paid $750 for a carburated 1979 Pontiac Catalina w/ a 2 barrel V8. Runs great, needs a brake overhaul. Car part prices are insanely cheap for carburated cars, lol.
I regret getting rid of my '98 XJ. I think the best years for XJs was 1991/1992 . And standard transmission of course. Indestructible, reliable, and easy to repair. And you could put sand in those I-6 4.0L, they were bullet proof.
Still the best car in tough snow situations and off-road.
I have 1993 jeep Cherokee 5 speed, I'm 2nd owner my mom is the first and it currently has 301k miles never been rebuilt, currently converting it from an internal slave to an external slave for reliability.
Saw one of these in Bucksport Maine! He's still using it as a postal vehicle.
Driving American lefthand drive vehicles in Japan was stressful. Most USA vehicles were as large of a bus. Never saw one of these righthand models in Japan. How interesting!
Bought one brand new in 1993 and owned it for 15 years. It ran great, good pickup off the line, had an excellent turning radius, excellent visibility, and a pretty comfortable ride overall. The one bad thing was that no matter what I did to it, it would run hot. Couldn't trust it on long trips!
Same here man
Scotty I have a 96 Jeep Grand Cherokee and it's the last car I'll have, putting in a new interior but the rest is fine, it has 168,000 miles on it and uses no oil and it leaves no oil drops anywhere. Just a all around great car.👍👍👍👍👍❤🇺🇸
I love your mission for truth and knowledge! I’ve been doing it forever. An educated client/guest is the best client/guest! Thank you
My mom had one. It got us from Colorado to Indiana many times on family holidays.
Great video Scotty. Keep up the great work.
I’ve got a 1999 Jeep Cherokee Classic. Inline 6 and the AW-4. Bought for $2800 at 164k miles and currently at 211,000 miles still running like a clock! Those Cherokees before the 2000’s were built fantastic! Hoping I can get the engine and trans past 300k!
I have owned 3 Iacocca Jeeps, new n used. Best American made vehicles I know. I buy years 1996-2004. Ez repairs, durable, suprisingly reliable, and drive so well.
Got me a 99 and I love her. Giving me problems right now but nothing you can’t fix yourself on them I6’s!!💪💪💪
My first car was a 4.0 96’ Grand Cherokee, I’m going to hold onto that thing forever. Essentially the same drivetrains as the XJ’s, but nothing beats that classic Cherokee body style.
My 92 Cherokee with 274k just put a new radiator and changed the water pump to be safe. It keeps going and going and going. Oh, and when we changed the pump out the water jacket was like new, no rust or gunk just super clean iron.
I think people get in the mindset that new cars lose so much money in depreciation in the first 3-5 years) and that is true... but that only matters if you plan to sell it within the first 3-5 years. If you buy with intention of keeping it for more than 5 years (and more like 10+ years) it's not as bad and I'd say around the 5 year marker is where it doesn't matter whether you buy new or used. Of course if you're the type that likes newer cars but gets a "new" car every 2-3 years, then perhaps buying CPO or slightly used makes more sense. But if you plan to keep a car for a long time, sometimes NEW is a better deal in the long run, especially if you drive a lot. (People also forget that banks and finance will give you a lower rate on a new car --and sometimes CPO if the financing is from the mfr--than on a used car, in which case you might pay 5%-8% on a used car but only 0-3% on a new car, so that itself could make a used car cost more than a new car, especially if it's only a year or two old and very close to the price of the new car with 0% or 2% interest.
I had one that had over 200,000 miles, loved it but it eats parts. I sold it and it's still going.
I always loved this kind of jeep
XJ Frameless and Shameless, put a 4.5 inch lift, put 35s and you'll have a killer off-road vehicle. Plus you get the good ole inline 4.0
Haha shameless? Yeah shameless to drive it. There definitely more Toyota on the roads than XJ Jeep’s. Just in general.
@@hasteandfury2424 your right, most of the toyotas are on the road, all the XJs are in the hills somewhere on the trail. 😉
@@rexracer7192 you shut him the hell right up
@@hasteandfury2424 Well yeah, there is more Toyotas on the road, Toyota makes a bunch of different vehicles and they are still making them today. An XJ was only one model of vehicle and they quit making them 20 years ago.
Scotty I live in Toledo, Ohio where they built that Jeep and still build the new Jeeps and people love them up here.
I remember back in the mid 90s wanting one of these Jeeps but I was only 20 at the time making 6$ an hour 😅
Hope your having a wonderful evening scotty love your videos and the energy!
thanks you too!
That particular model of Cherokee is the absolute Pinnacle of 4x4 SUV design the 4 litre engine indestructible.... just saw a guy driving a mint condition one today amongst a bunch of Porsches and Lexus SUVs I know I would have still sooner had the jeep
What years in this model? (like for example 90-99?)
@@dodgeapache2262 jeep made ~3 million of these from 84-01. 87 was the 4.0 intro and it got tweaked in 91 as the 190hp/225tq high output. 97 got a mild refresh exterior and new interior. 00&01 had new heads and there were flawed castings that cracked above 3&4 exhaust ports under the valve cover and leaked coolant into the oil(and destroyed bearings in process when undiscovered). 00 had federal and cali emission models and all 01s were cali. The cali models have pre-cats right under the intake manifold and will boil/heat-soak the fuel rail and injectors when shut-off and will stumble on restarts and sometimes blow the check-valve on the fuel pump(thus have to prime multiple times before cranking). Anyhow, I’ve owned at least 6 of these since 1993 and have bought, fixed, and sold many more! Watch out for chasis and floor pan rust.
I love my ‘99 XJ 4.0L...owner it 7 years. 225k miles on it and still running strong.
I found lots of trim parts/seats for my 1990 Cherokee back in 2014 When it was 24 years old. Jeep still carried the EGR solenoid new too.
I have a 96 Jeep Grand Cherokee and use it as my winter beater. I've never had to stick hardly any money in it. Runs like a top. Great vehicle and will go through anything.
Great videos as always Scotty !!!!
I had one of those in high-school. They are solid cars.
Bullet proof is fore sure , my 1998 has 225000 on it runs like a top , love it , I'll never get rid of it
I have a 98 2 door XJ with the Inline 4 and a 5 speed and the transmission in it is bulletproof. Has over 200k on it. Such an AMAZING car.
I have an 86 I4 TBI RENIX, the first RENIX year. Most 4.0L guys don’t believe that though lol. But it’s true.
Had a 93 cherokee sport fun and great review scotty
Had a 98 bought it for 1400 bucks with 160k on it. Drove to 186k in two years, then sold it to my coworker and he took it to 235k but trashed it. R.I.P Jeep❤️❤️
I’ve been owning these cherokees since 1993! I currently have a 99 2dr 4wd ax15 manual 4.0 SE stripper model that is getting a 4.6l stroker next week.
My father had one in Australia with a lift kit and rear mounted spare wheel. He drove it all over the country mostly towing a caravan (trailer in US). Two things made it a pain to own. Very, very poor braking and very unreliable electronics. He had electonic cables and parts dropped from a plane to him stranded in the desert so he could continue his travels. Motor, transmission and diffs were fantastic.
We had a 91 Cherokee Sport with the 4.0 w / 5 speed manual for 15 years. Loved it!
Had a '95 Cherokee Country 4x4 sold it in 2010 with 350k miles on it. The car never gave me any problems, just kept up on the maintenance. It ran and looked perfect the day I sold it.
IJust recently looked at a 2017 Ford f150 at a car lot that had 70,000 miles on it they wanted $41,000 for it with no warranty except for the West Virginia minimum 1000 mi 30-day warranty that only covers 30%.
Good Thursday afternoon to you Scotty, hope you and yours are doing well today and your vacation is a bundle of fun. Now since you have a red left-handed Jeep we can call you Lefty😉🧰🙌👍🍺
Great video!
My family has had 5 XJ’s and still have 3 today. Although they aren’t the newest tech and fanciest Jeep out there, people are still interested and they’re still super reliable!
Bought a 2001 in ‘04 w 30k miles, now have 235k miles and runs amazing, never getting rid of it
Wow, I love that model!
That old Jeep in-line six dates back to 1964 when it was introduced on the Rambler as a 195, then 199 cu in engine.
Cheers Scotty. Its amazing how big the word is ahhh? . Built in Ohio, moved ro Japan, back in Masachusetts... Amazing! And it is left hand drive! Thats just too much!
Greetings from South Africa! Very nice to see a vehicle with the steering wheel on the correct side on your channel Scotty!
I just bought a 96 Detroit police package Cherokee XJ 4 months ago. Last owners did a lot of rework but never finished everything since the kid wanted a mustang instead. It's my 2nd vehicle my 1st is a 07 Scion TC. Big difference in the two. Replacing rear suspension next week since leaf springs are flat. Next is hood rust from the holes it had as a police vehicle. Then customizing it next this year. Hopefully repaint it the same color next year. Love Dana 35 and 4.0. It's a howling going down the road and love it!
I’ve never heard anyone say they love the Dana 35, but I appreciate that. Unless you’re heavy duty wheelin’, the 35 is pleeenry rugged.
Been waiting for a Cherokee vid! 96 Cherokee classic was my first car. Grandpa gave it to me. Still got it just gotta get a new windshield. Takes off so good due to that straight 6 it’s a beast engine with great torque. Also got a 92 5 speed that’s sitting it needs an engine and transmission if anybody wants to donate lol
They become popular when the Fratellis outran the cops in the Goonies, Jeep and is truly a beast

Yes Scotty needs to be on Jay Leno's garage. It would be great to hear both Scotty and Leno talking about cars. Both have a wealth of knowledge.
No
way great video!
I still have the 2000 2 door sport I bought new. It has 145,000 mi and I drive it 20 mi a day to work 5 days a week. Runs good.
I used to have a ‘99 XJ with the 4.0, loved that thing! Used to pull my 4,000 lb boat with it.
I had a ‘96 XJ. It got stolen twice from my apartment complex. California.
I love this old guy so much
Just bought a 1996 4x4 Cherokee XJ only 148k miles. Great to know it’s Scotty approved!!!
I bought one last year, a 96 cherokee country 4x4. these cherokees are the best jeep ever made hands down. You got an xj with very little miles, lucky you!!!
Purchased a 1994 Cherokee from original owners 90,000 original miles ZERO rust perfect interior love this Jeep
Yea those 90s Cherokees were tough and durable!
