What is genuinely unfortunate about the KJ is how genuinely not bad it was. As a matter of fact it was actually pretty good! It felt like a rocket ship compared to the rather archaic XJ Cherokee, yet it retained a lot of its Jeep charm, whether the internet likes to admit to it or not. Yes, it doesnt have a solid front axle, but do you really need one? The KJ has proven to be fairly capable despite of its limitations in the design.
Ive had my 2002 Liberty with the V-6 for almost 3 years now. Its a great vehicle. I love watching videos of people taking their Liberty off road and doing things with it I probably wouldn't attempt.
That was my wife’s first brand new Jeep! It was metallic blue. She loved that truck that we had 3 of them through a 12 year period! Now we own two wrangler jk’s.👌😎👍♥️
The suspension were not near as good as the quadralink cherokees, but what choice did they have? They needed safer vehicles with better mileage. The Cherokee was scary in skid situations.

This SUV should have always been called Cherokee(like it was in Europe). The current Cherokee should be called Liberty instead.

You're right. The Liberty was born out of necessity.
The o sh1t lever pulled me out of a few slides during winter storms
Beats the hell out of the newer electric 4weel drive selector

This car is also called as a dachshund from PAW Patrol
They really screwed up not continuing to make the Cherokee.
Funny you say that, because here in Australia and the rest of the world, this KJ is called the Cherokee, not a Liberty.
amazing prices
Thats cherokee not a liberty lol
for comparison, ya hear?
They were called Cherokee in Australia and everywhere else in the World
In the country that created it, it's called the Liberty. Hardly any are left because they were garbage.
