It is a 1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee. It has the 5.3L V8 engine (aka Dodge 318).It is full time 4WD and also is my daily commuter. I guess I am one of the 1% that acutally take thier 4x4 SUV off road!The vehicle is bone stock save for the shocks . . . Rancho 5000's and tires . . . Yokohamo Eurolanders.I turned 200,000 miles on the odo the day before yesterday.This rig has taken me all over the place in Nevada as well as the Trinities. I have pulled a Coleman tent trailer to most of these places with zero problems.This rig has been VERY good to me. I have replaced tires, batteries, shocks and a hose or two. Done normal maintainance and it simply runs and runs.It is not your gnarley rock rig, but it works for me!Kevin

Any rig that turns 200,000 on the odometer is a good rig. That's good for a full time 4X4.
