The XJ Cherokee will allways be the winner in my heart, screw the rest of ya.

This about sums up how the w123 won. A bunch of knobs from kotaku and deadspin and Jezebel with no clue voting like morons. And don't forget the hippie liberals from gawker voting for it because it can be converted to run on French fries.. While I appreciate the w123 and it's abilities it's far from a better beater…

I'm not here to spout lies, that's what I got for gas mileage.... I don't have proof so I can't back myself up and this is the internet so you can can what I say with a grain if salt. However depending on season, how riled up I was and weather or not the doors were off, I got at worst 12 and at best 19mpg and usually…

My XJ on 33's with 4.5 in of lift with stock gears got 17-19mpg. That's fantastic as far as I am concerned for what should have been a dedicated trail rig I drove daily 100 miles. Especially considering my v8 mountaineer of similar vintage got 10 mpg at best and my mums 06' explorer gets 15-18mpg stock. It's a matter…

That's a fantastic picture of the XJ.... New desktop FTW

Oops forgot one, let's see the Impreza do a little of this....

I'm sorry you had to sell you XJ today Man, you will miss her terribly, but there is cause for hope. There are many XJ's out there and one of them will have your name on it again. Hell you may even decide to go full on TANK and get an SJ. My jeep was really the only good thing I had in my life until I sold it, and…

This thread is the business, awesome jeep, and awesome information!

I think our Jeeps would have gotten along nicely

Yeah, that was the joke.

I never broke any sway bar mounts in my XJ...........

I can completely understand the mentality and love for Imprezas but at the end of the day I don't understand how it beat the XJ. It has been proven time and again that the XJ is capable of anything, not just stuff off the paved road. From camping, family vacations, road trips, commuting, rock crawling, autocross,…

My one question for you sir, have you even driven an XJ because everything you said sounds like you either have no clue what your talking about or rode in the worst condition XJ on the planet. I have born witness to the Cherokee being not only tougher than nails, but pretty quick. Not only that but a XJ just beat out…

They are a fixture in the grassroots Motor sports 20xx challenge. Check out the most recent coverage. They came in first in the autocross part of the competition and it cost less than $2013 dollars to build. Beating e30's and fox bodies.

I never replicated top gears tests exactly l but I did drive mine into a couple of trees, got rear ended twice, jumped countless times, drove through two rivers and scaled a waterfall and caught it on fire on top of daily driving it 100 miles daily to work.

I always enjoyed the ride in mine , it wasn't a Cadillac, but it was never bad either.

I could write a book about the indestructible reliabily and resourcefulness of the XJ Jeep cherokee, but I'm on my phone and still trying to make an impression at my new job. But it can do everything from scale a mountai n , race across a desert, take a family on a vacation and race a road corse. There is nothing this…

This was nearly 6 years ago.... is this linked somewhere? I did a writeup on my trip with pics on oppo after I went 5ish years ago.
