if by "plain Cherokee" you mean the classic boxy XJ that they haven't
made for about 7 years, they were available for a few years with an
awful (Renault?) diesel back in the 80s.
cheers!

Come to the UK if you want crappy cars/vans with a dieselall the Grand
Voyagers in my neighbourhood are diesel. So are the Cheeps...and Land
Rovers/Range Rovers...well, not ALL the Range Roverssome poseurs still
drive the petrol crap.
You gotta love all the Aston Martins and Bentley Contin
Huh? The 2007 Cheep Grand Cherokee was the only one of the much
touted 2007 dodge lineup with MB Bluetec engines that actually
materialized. Only problem was that the Cheep was $50k. I told the
Stealer that for $50 k, I'd buy a real Mercedes.
The Cheep Liberty had an italian (no parts avail
Some of them had a turbocharged Detroit. Got horrible milage -- I'd
have thought 30 + with a 602 variant, they got 22 with the diesel.
The 4.0L gasser gets 18, I think.

We have 2 Diesels left and they need to go!!!
The 3.0 Crd is in Ward
I thought the "modern" (XJ/1984-2001) cherokees were lighter, I seem to
recall that they were 3000-3100lbs, where the "Full Size" jeeps (earlier
cherokees/wagoneers, and grand cherokee/wagoneer through 1993 (SJ body
style)) were in the 4500lb neighborhood...
Those I-6's are pretty respectable

For starters, that cherokee was a comple
we can't compare XJ Cherokees to the Full Size J**ps; XJs (like those of
the diesel vintage) didn't weigh anywhere near that much.
since they're frame-less unitized construction, even with the wife and

Jeeps are HEAVY. I don't know what a Cherokee weighed, but the 70s
Wagoneers were nearly three tons IIRC.
Same reasons the Nissans in Scouts were slow. Nobody builds automotive
diesels like MB and VW. High RPM, Inj timing advance, high P/W ratio, high
performance inj pumps.
