If you are going to get a mid-sized gas guzzler SUV, it may as well be a Jeep Grand Cherokee, and it should be the original ZJ generation (1993-1998) because the later Cherokees are plastic piles of Daimler-Chrysler era refuse. When new, the ZJ generation was exclusively driven by upper-middle class suburbanites who had kids but didn't want to be identified with poor people driving minivans (today these people drive BMW X5s, Lexus LX, Porsche Cayenne, etc) but a used one today can easily be afforded by even the filthiest of the unwashed masses. If you are going to drop a few coins on an ZJ, the only one to get is the model year 1998 only 5.9 limited. Find this 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee 5.9 Limited

The Jeep Grand Cherokee is a common sight on suburban roads today and was certainly more prevalent back in the 1990s before the Japanese introduced us to SUVs that were fuel efficient and reliable...but I digress. With the death of the Grand Wagoneer after the 1991 model year, the Grand Cherokee was the top dog in Jeep's domestic lineup and most were sold with automatic gearboxes for regular folks, but a few hundred (over almost 20 years of production) left the factory with a manual box..and here is one.
