1990 Cherokee Question!
Hi all,
I was going to trade in my 1999 Ford F150 for a fun off road vehicle such as
the Toyota Tacoma or the Jeep Wrangler. I only do off roading CASUALLY, so I
have no need for rock climbers and the like. Plus, I live in relatively flat
land where the only hills we have are sand dunes at the beach here in South
Texas.
But, I found out that my sister is trying to sell her 1990 Jeep Cherokee 4WD 4L
AC and heard that these things are relatively legendary in the Jeep world.
Okay, maybe not that great, but I keep hearing of people wishing they could
find one for sale (my sister told me about how people sometimes come up to her
asking if she'd sell the thing).
I am a Jeep newbie, so can anyone tell me whether this Jeep is a keeper? Or,
should I spend the hard earned cash and get a 2004 Toyota Tacoma or Wrangler?
I'd prefer to just save the dough and try to "beef up" the Jeep a bit, if
possible. I don't know how many miles my sister's Jeep has, but what are your
thoughts? I only plan to use the Jeep for short distances (hell, any place in
Texas is far!) and casual off roading like at the local beach, etc.
One last thing, I know there have been a few recalls on this Jeep---is it too
late to do it??
Thanks!

Re: 1990 Cherokee Question!
I'd say take your sister's Jeep, and save about 20 grand. I've only
driven the 1998 Cherokee, and I think you'll find that in stock form
that it'll do whatever you want it to. It won't need much beefing up if
you plan do only casual offroading.
