Used 1998 Jeep Cherokee for Sale near Houma, LA

We absolutely love our Jeep. We will probably buy a second one to replace our Ford Taurus Wagon as our other winter vehicle. Our summer cars are both Sports Cars (a Mazda Miata and a Datsun 240-Z) so we're into good handling - and despite being an SUV, the Jeep Cherokee is a VERY good handling vehicle - we have Rancho Shocks on it and the suspension is nice and tight - it takes curves great. Also has very spirited acceleration. It is a blast to drive in snowy weather - nothing stops it (we have Bridgestone Blizzaks on the original 15" wheels for winter and a set of Goodyear Fortera TripleTreds on 16" Wheels for the rest of the year. Gas Mileage is a bit low compared to more modern SUVs (we average around 14-15 mpg). Now that it's getting older, minor wiring issues are starting to crop up (Drivers Door Speaker no longer works, 3rd Brakelight only lights if tailgate is open, Electric Window switches on passenger doors stopped working even when master switch is in "On" position, electric door locks only function when door is in certain positions). Fortunately, the Driver's Master set of switches for the windows still works - so I have all the control... :-) The Engines and Drivelines in these Jeeps go on forever - but as they age, smaller issues happen with wiring, alternator, etc. But bear in mind, I've now got nearly 200,000 miles on it and it is 16 years old. I remember a time when if one got 100,000 miles and 6 or 7 years of good service out of a car (or Jeep) one was doing good. Over all I'm completely satisfied - one of my best vehicle purchases ever.

I love this Jeep! This is the second one I have owned and I am totally hooked on Jeeps. I can haul just about anything and have! I have used just my Jeep to move twice! We have even slept in the back when out tent sprang a leak while camping. I has good accelleration and handles well off road as well as on and the gas mileage is great.

This is an excellent jeep. Got my family to and from vacations, excellent family vehicle. Plenty of space for a family with 2 children. Very reliable,never had a problem. Would buy another 1998 jeep Cherokee Excellent in the winter

Can't stop it, bullet proof, 4.0 HO, Rusty's lift on 31 Dick Cepeks. Arguably one of the toughest Jeeps of all time, and my personal most reliable ride I've ever owned. This rig is featured on Cardomain.com as well as one of Rusty's Rigs. An all season beast.

This was a great first car but with terrible fuel economy. Had a classic look may never go out of style, plenty of room, and was surprisingly comfortable (considering it's basically a truck). It never broke down and was perfect for western New York winters. It was eventually sold to my next door neighbor, where it terrorized me for three more years, sitting there in his driveway.
