My TJ just reached 200,000 miles. This is the first vehicle I've owned to make it with this many miles and not fall apart. Though it does have a few issues, it's still going strong.

Wow, that's great! I know guys who've gone 250k miles and still running fine. Then others who skipped maintenance who were replacing the motor at 150k or less miles. Rolling Eyes

I agree 100%, you have to maintain the engine, witch I do.

The issues it has are still a little bit of death wobble, and its a little down on power, and I'm not getting as good gas millage as I'd did a year ago, but that's to be expected. Death wobble can be fixed, when I get cash, still not sure what the problem is. I have new tires, steering stabilizer, and shocks. I do need an alignment with new tires. Ball joints seem solid still.

Her '01 TJ - 46k.

I drive the Cherokee every day and it never let's me down.
