I swapped it out, drove it for a week and sold the car. With my daughter approaching driving age, I wish i still had that car for her. It was simple to work on and reliable. They have gotten very hard to find now, most have been consumed by the off road crowd or bubba-fyed to the extent I wouldn't have it

My 98 Cherokee 4.0L has 214K miles on it and still starts right up. It's hauled V20's to and from Fla. (1600 miles one way) twice without a hiccup. Been in 3 accidents, all caused by people running into my rear or making illegal turns into my lane of traffic. (none charged to me) And I've never gotten so much as a scratch from any of them. They are incredibly tough, strong workhorses.

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.
