Looks like a cherokee may be my next vehicle. I have a friend who owns a used car dealership and I have 6 grand. I have every intention of a 3 to 5 or so inch lift and so on and so forth. For light to some medium offroad duty, but will still be a daily driver. I live in GA so were lookin at mostly mud.
I worked as a mechanic for a year befor I started college and befriended a hell of a master tech who is a jeep fanatic. Just wondering if jeep has done anything particularly stupid with any of its late models. I did read somewhere about some airbags that deployed a couple thousandths of a second too late. Just lookin for that sort of info.
I will most likely end up in an automatic since the whole time I worked as a mechanic I only encountered one manual cherokee. So I will definetly need a big cooler. Any transmissions, axles, transfer cases or anything else I should try to stay away from?
Also what are your favorite offroad companies? Who's got the reputation?
Thanks for the help guys.[addsig]
