Yes! Exactly what you wanted to see! A newbie post asking dumb questions!!!
So, I'm COMPLETELY new to the whole idea of off roading, or 4x4.. Loved it since I was a kid, never got a chance to get into it. A near future move to the western mountains of NC has brought about the legitimate need for a 4x4 vehicle that we don't have to make payments on for 5 years.. I'm using it as an excuse to get the jeep I always wanted. Here is my issue, being new to it all, I did a little research and with my needs (and some wants) of automatic, a daily driver (that can take a beating with 2 kids, hunting and hauling roller derby gear), but able to lift it some for a bit of playtime and ability to easily add to and customize as I go and learn... I'm trying to stay away from the computery end of things, I don't want to have to take it to some dealership or find a computer system to hook it to in order to fix a simple problem. (I've heard of some cars that won't even crank if a sensor is off or has to go to a special dealership to get it reset for hundreds of dollars..)
I'm drawn to the classic Cherokee from around 1990 - 94ish.. However, I have had recent suggestions of expanding that to include years up to 98.
Thought I would ask around here... What do you guys think about the year range that I am looking in? Any suggestions on what the best year would be?
Thanks for your patience and help!!
