This is what they had before the SRT-8…gas companies are going to love me. lolll I’m going to pick it up Monday morning, I’ll take some nice pictures after i wash it. This is a Google picture, but it’s exactly the same, color and all. Mint body (like 99%) and 140k on it. I went to see it twice in Ottawa before deciding on it, but tonight I called and said I was taking it, I can’t wait!!! It’s a 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited 5.9, fully loaded with towing package, sunroof, upgrade leather (over the 5.2) and 10 speaker sound system. Also, this one is full-time AWD, not 4x4, but still has a low gear, kind of like the new Land Rovers, just more reliable. lolll It sounds amazing, pulls freaking hard and consumes 18l/100km (avg of the onboard computer) of 91, so much awesomeness. lolll 250hp and 350ft-lbs of torque will do that. ![http://farm1.static.flickr.com/153/335191436_7ed5330451.jpg?v=0](http://farm1.static.flickr.com/153/335191436_7ed5330451.jpg?v=0) ![http://memimage.cardomain.com/member_images/3/web/771000-771999/771987_118.jpg](http://memimage.cardomain.com/member_images/3/web/771000-771999/771987_118.jpg) ---

Sweet buy. I was looking at those too before I settled on a 2000 Ford Explorer Eddie Bauer edition with a 5.0l V8. Awesome time to pick up SUV’s or trucks if you were ever in the market for one. Just loaded up about 20 cases of beer in mine and the damn thing still drove as if it had no cargo in it. ---
