My jeep is a great vehicle, it has lasted almost eight years now and is still running strong aside from a couple of minor easily fixed issues over the years! It handles great on the road. The air conditioner/heater and radio are still rocking like beasts. It's four wheel drive works wonders in heavy snow and ice. I have not had any issues with the power windows and locks. I don't do a lot of heavy driving, when what driving I do, it handles perfectly well for me. I have taken on a few different types of terrain, the toughest likely being in the mountains in Kentucky or New York and so far it hasn't met anything it could not handle. The only real issue I have had with it is that the seating in front and back could be a little more spacious. The back is especially unforgiving with leg room. The radio has worked great for 8 years, but recently I have been having a bit of an issue with it reading CD's that I put in, eventually it recognizes them but sometimes I have to put them in a few times. Other than that I have loved it for all of the many years I've had it!

The 1996 Jeep Grand Cherokee is an oldie but a goody. It has proven to be safe and reliable time after time. The style seems ageless as the newer models look almost the same. there are however some down sides, the trunk space is hampered by the ill placement of the spare tire. Another downside is the mpg is very low compared to modern Jeeps. The size of the vehicle seems just right not too large not too small it has very little blind spot areas. The interior is comfortable and has stood up to abuse. I purchased this car second hand and have only had to have minor repairs done to it which were expected with age and when I purchased it, it was near mint which was shocking as it was already well over ten years old. The only downside to repairs is given the age it can some times be pricey to get new parts. Overall every penny spent on this car has been worth it. It is easy to drive great handling smooth acceleration and breaking and easy transition between two and four wheel drive.
