1996 Jeep Cherokee XJ 4×4 with 277k Miles: The Workhorse That Refuses to Quit
"The XJ is having its moment because it's the only '90s SUV that actually proved itself rather than relying on nostalgia. High-mileage ones now command real money."

This is what survival looks like in four-wheel form. A 277,225-mile XJ Cherokee headed to auction in Oklahoma City represents the kind of truck that actually earned its reputation through genuine use, not marketing. XJs became the template for affordable 4×4 capability, and clean, high-mileage examples are finally getting recognized as the utilitarian design classics they always were.
