I purchased this Jeep in October of 2010 with 72k miles from a dealer in Maryland. It was absolutely the cleanest one I could find, and remains in overall very good mechanical and cosmetic shape. I am selling it because I’ve purchased another vehicle and don’t need two.

It has served me extremely well as my daily driver for the last 4+ years, never giving me any trouble whatsoever and getting me through some serious winter storms. This Jeep has spent 99% of its time with me on pavement. I take very good care of my vehicles and kept this XJ in top shape during my ownership - I have a stack of receipts for parts and labor. A sampling of the maintenance history below:

Nov 2010/72,600 miles - all O2 sensors replaced, F/R brake service, transmission and transfer case fluid changed, differentials serviced, new spark plugs and boots.
Feb 2011/75,790 miles - new thermostat and housing, new AC compressor and clutch, AC recharged.
Aug 2011/81,200 miles - Wheel alignment, balance and rotation.
October 2012 - New battery
November 2012/93,500 miles - Chassis lubrication, cooling system flush, power steering fluid replaced, brake fluid replaced, oil pan gasket and misc. smaller gaskets replaced, F/R brakes replaced, F/R differentials serviced, driver’s door hinge replaced, new General Grabber AT2 tires mounted and balanced, wheel alignment.
July 2014 - New serpentine belt
February 2015 - New shocks front and rear
March 2015 - Oil and filter change

I also performed my own oil changes every 5k miles during my ownership. This is definitely one of the cleanest/well maintained examples you will find anywhere - I have have receipts for thousands in maintenance.

The Jeep also has an aftermarket audio system with Polk Momo speakers and a MP3 head unit. There is some professionally installed cabling under the rear bench seat for subs/amps as well, so the system can be expanded. I had a heavy duty H4/9003 headlight wiring harness from Susquehanna Motorsports installed together with glass Euro housings and Hella 80/100W bulbs. I also had legal 50% tint installed on the front windows that made a big improvement in keeping the interior cool.

In the interest of full disclosure I will list a few issues that would I would fix at some point if I was keeping the Jeep:

1. The A/C evaporator coil, I suspect, has a leak. This causes the system to slowly discharge, and is a common issue among all XJ Cherokees.

2. Every now and then only the rear speakers will play music, and this usually occurs on very cold days. It’s more than likely the speaker wiring in the front door hinges needing some attention.

3. The rear bumper has a scrape or two and some clearcoat spots missing.

In sum, this is a very well sorted Cherokee ready for its new owner. I am asking $5,500 OBRO. PM me if you or anyone you know is interested, I'm keeping it just on MM for a few days before it goes on CL/Autotrader etc.

EDIT - I realized there is a bit of liquid under the jeep in a few pics, that is just water. I washed it for the photos and drove to this parking lot about 30 seconds from where I live.

This thing is impossibly clean for a 15 year old jeep.

Sent to a fellow Jeeper looking to pickup a clean XJ as a DD.

Very reasonable price Goodspeed. You will definitely get it as rust free clean XJ's are getting harder and harder to find these days.

Thanks! Pricing this kinda threw me for a loop TBH. I did a nationwide search and found 2 or 3 privately owned that I considered to be clean like this one, and they were around what I'm asking or higher. KBB/NADA were kinda low I felt and dealers are asking 7, 8, 9 grand for them in similar condition (but often higher miles), which I felt was a lot to ask, at least if I didn't want it sitting around for months. :dunno:

I forgot to include it earlier, and edited my original post to include my email for any friends of friends that want to get in touch, thanks!

Thanks Goodspeed. I passed your email onto my buddy. He is going on vacation for the week but was VERY interested if it's still available when he gets back.

Mike texted you, Goody. He's supremely interested - he had a dark green '93 XJ for years and it was finally broken into and totaled last year. The thieves broke the ignition lock, and apparently insurance deemed that "the end" for his. Paint was funky, it had 250k miles on it, etc etc but he loved it, and I know he wants another green XJ if he can find one.

[Goodspeed]

Thanks Cabell, and Jake! I did get a text from Mike, and he emailed me.

Good luck selling this bruh, I seriously would pick this up from you if I didn't already have my TJ. Anywho, this won't last long with the price you've put on it. Someone is gonna get a nice XJ!
