Like Spare, I've got a regular Cherokee. 1998 with over 160,000 miles on it. Used it this last summer to go to Fla and pull my boat home. 1600 miles each way. I've really never had a problem with it, other than a blown upper radiator hose where it rubbed on a bolt over time. I just change the oil when it's due and do the normal plugs and wires stuff. It's got a distributor cover and a coil, so you need to change them too, but that's it. They run forever. You can expect 300,000 miles on average from the engine. It is, undeniably, the most reliable engine I've ever driven.

If God didn't have a purpose for us we wouldn't be here, so
Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly.
(Leave the rest to God) 
Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
