buying a 2004 overland
Well its time for a new jeep. I've alwaysed loved grand cherokees. I'm trsading my 01 cherokee sport for a 04 overland. The deal seems good to me. The overland is 8k for 140xxx miles clean well maintained at a jeep dealership has the stack of paper work and a clean carfax. I talked to the man who traded it in at the dealer. I didn't tell him I was buying it. He says its all highway miles he owns a construction company. So he traveled alot. Seems legit to me. I'm getting 2k for my sport. Seem like a good deal to you guys?
Seems like an honest old man to me.

8k for a 04 overland sounds exactly right. research it some more and take it for a good test drive, not just around the block once

good luck!

The miles are tall for that price. I'm not sure I could get 8k for my overland and it's a hair under 100k, has all service records, and is in as good as it gets condition for a vehicle its age.

I'd try for 7k with 140k.

sounds good to me.

I believe in highway mileage.

my 03 limited has 160k on it. bought it from a friend who drove it 150 miles a day for work.

It drives like it is brand new literally. It drives better then my 99 4.0 with 130k on it.
