1989 Jeep Cherokee 4.0L inline 6 from North America
Summary:
Good truck to buy and have fun with!
Faults:
Overheats.
Alternator blew up.
Truck quits when I hit puddles or go in water.
Rear end is too light.
Really wobbly when lifted.
4WD high is under powered for an inline 6.
General Comments:
This truck is very fun to 4x4! It will go anywhere.
It likes mud. Lots of power in 4WD low.
I will out wheel any of my friends, and when it's not quitting, it's running great!
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

Don't agree with the "crappy" in-line six comment at all. Have owned a Jeep,1991, for 174k miles with very minimal work over and above the normal maintenence. Have seen several comments and know first hand of the in-line sixes going well over 200k, and I plan to see at least 300k with mine. The percentage of poor reviews is very minimal for this engine. America needs to learn how to make an engine/tranny combination this well again!
