Depends on a few variables, mostly being previous owner. One of the best runnin JEEPS I ever seen had 400K+ on the clock, and NEVER had an engine repair done. I personally like my JEEPS, espescially PINKY ;D. I don't know of any other vehicle that could take what I've put mine threw, and keep on goin. Mine spends enough time on the floor board, I might as well be covering a hole with the go pedal. There's much potential for the 4.0L's as well. My old style came stock with 150HP in 88, I'm pushing up around 185 with a $0 investment. Just a few secret tweeks. Or you can go hog wild and build ya a 4.9L KING KONG HP/TQ monster that will snap just about everything in the drivetrain.
