2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee Special Edition. 4.0L engine (154,xxx miles), Black w/ dark gray int, Jeep has all the options of a limited model, fully loaded. Just installed the Old Man Emu lift kit a couple of months ago. Has a set of take off Jeep Wrangler Rubicon wheels and tires. 17" wheel w/ 255-75-17 BFG mud terrains tires. This is a nice jeep, but could use some extra money right now. Got a new baby on the way that is why am I selling it. Any questions please call Bud 404-557-8064. Jeep is at 4Weel Parts @ Norcross during the day (were I work) if you want to see it in person.

When looking for WJ's, be a little more weary of the Limited models. They have problems in the AC related to the blend doors so make sure that has been repaired. Otherwise it can be a little costly to fix.

The Limited's have automatic climate control in them in which the blend door is a part of. They are notorious for failing and involve a lot of work to replace. So, when looking at them, try and see if the work has already been done. If so, you should be good. If not, either avoid it or try and haggle down the price. If you find a Laredo, then don't worry about it.

That jeep i listed above is the normal heat right? Looks like a regular 3 knob control in the dash.

Also from my personal experiences depending on what you want to do with this WJ. If your gonna wheel it stay away from the V6 models the V8s come with D44HD in the rear and 3.73 gears plus the V8 is nice and peppy. Both motors get around the same gas mileage, they both have around the same life span, but the V8 crushes the V6 and any other category. As mentioned above the limiteds have the blend door issue but if your a handy with small handtools you could tackle this yourself.

Did some of them come with V6's? I thought they either had the 4.0 or the V8.

News to me... I thought the 4.0 was a legend and a 4.7 was JUNK. Ive seen lots of 4.7s with around 100k miles and just completely FUBAR. Cost an arm and leg for a replacement too. Plus dont all the 4.7 limiteds have that piece of crap T case?  {ehm}
