Cherokees are viewed as reliable since they were around long enough to get
the bugs worked out. There's mixed experiences on Grand Cherokees, which are
a much newer model.

Not in my opinion. As a genereal rule, truck parts are more expensive than
car parts, but domestic parts are cheaper than imported. Cherokees are common
enough that you can get a lot of the parts from auto parts stores rather than
dealers.

As you've probably guessed, the automatic is more common than the manual. The
Cherokee automatic is viewed as very reliable, but it is very expensive to
have worked on if something does go wrong.
I should add that the Cherokee wasn't really considered "luxury" by most
people. I think in later years Jeep considered it more an entry level Grand
Cherokee, and buyers considered it either that or a no-frills workhorse. My
Cherokee has just about every option except leather and antilock brakes, but
really loaded ones are not as common, as most people that wanted and could
afford all the toys probably bought Grands.

31:10.50= 15's, fully loaded Green and Gold . One heck of a nice unit. It
was shane Burgen's I think was his name. He live's in Burnsville. You might

Sounds like what you got is similar to mine. Mine is a 93 Country, metallic
green with "champagne" trim (I always thought it looked more like "silver").
It's pretty much stock, except for very slightly oversized (235R15) tires and
aftermarket CD receiver. It does have limited slip and factory skid plates.
When I bought it it there was some rust and "deferred maintenance", but it's
in good shape now.
I don't happen to know Shane Burgen. I would like to try off-roading some
time, but I've only had a 4*4 for 9 months and more pressing issues came up
last summer. So I don't really know anyone in the Jeep "community" around
here.
