Think of the 2000 jeep cherokee as a staid, grown-up version of the Wrangler. We strongly recommend the full time four wheel drive system; it made the vehicle sure-footed, and unlike the part-time system (also included for off-roaders), only intruded with a slight increase in noise and a heavier feel to the steering wheel. (Warning: four wheel drive does not affect the brakes! Generally, the 2000 jeep cherokee is not pretentious, but it is well designed.
The 2000 jeep cherokee is inexpensive by SUV standards; ours, fully optioned, was $27,350, but the base price of the Classic was $23,000, including the six cylinder engine and automatic transmission (both options). Gas mileage is not as bad as with competing vehicles, the engine is responsive, and the spare tire is kept inside, where it is easily accessible.
Squareness does not hurt the 2000 jeep cherokee at all, if wind noise and sales are any indication. Though you drive up high, the 2000 jeep cherokee provides good visibility on all sides, and effective windshield wipers keep the windows free and clear.
The 2000 Cherokee scores the '99 Grand Cherokee's redesigned 4.0-liter PowerTech inline six in addition to a new five-speed manual transmission. The Limited model sports bright chrome accents, including the front grille, the headlamp surrounds, the side graphics, the rear license-plate brow and the 16-inch wheels.
Reviews
Some things never change and the 2000 jeep cherokee is one of those mainstays. Not that we fear change--we fear aerodynamic-based change. Watch for the hip-to-be-square Cherokee to go rounded, seriously rounded, soon. A radio/cassette combo is standard, and both the Classic and Limited versions have cast aluminum wheels.
