Outer Limits 4x4 Board

I currently drive a 1.3L which gets me around 400Ks on $40 worth of petrol selling between $1.10-1.20/L. Don’t think I could get similar with a 4WD. Expect a petrol 4wd to use twice that amount of fuel on average. Three times as much around town and when in a hurry. Sadly this is something I have ...

Thankyou all for your replies – very generous with your time and effort. *Why these 2 vehicles?* Pretty much all comes down to money. Unfortunately working on a tight budget. Not really wanting to spend over $7,000 for a car that’s 10+ years old. Although concerned that a 4WD selling at a low pri ...

Hi all, Looking at buying either a 1992 Holden Jackaroo or a 95/96/97 model Jeep Cherokee. Both the Holden and Jeep would be Automatic running on petrol. Having some trouble trying to choose between the two cars, would like to get your 2c worth. What are the pros and cons with these vehicles in ...

Getting closer to making my final decision, but have another question to ask:

How do current cherokee owners find the fuel economy of your vehicles?
What sort of distance are you getting from $40 worth of petrol priced at $1.20/L ?

My thanks to all for your replies - Very generous in your time and info provided. I am taking all facts and suggestions on board and using them to assist with my ongoing research and eventual decision making. what is the intended use as this makes a lot of difference, if you plan to tour with 5 ...

g'day I am looking at buying a Cherokee, '96 model at this stage but considering all models between 1994-99. Would like to hear your thoughts on the vehicle and reasons why you no longer drive one. As a potential buyer I'm just wanting to hear 'both sides of the story' before I make a final decision ...

Hi to all, Would be great to hear some feedback here – I am looking at buying a 96 (possibly other models give or take a year or two) Jeep Cherokee and are just after some advice regarding the following: *An expected price for a 2nd hand 1996-1999 cherokee. *Any common mechanical issues/problems/fa ...

Thanks very much for all the replies guys.
Can't say for certain, but I think you've talked me out of a purchase. (just depends if I can afford a reliable car other than a terios)

Again, I appreciate the effort.

Happy trails.
Cheers

Thankyou all for the above replies. Greatly appreciated. 4000RPM at 110km/h sounds about right, that’s roughly what I get out of my ’87 pulsar at present. I can see myself taking the pulsar on a long trip such as Melbourne-Sydney, but rest stops would be needed perhaps a little more frequent then ...

G’day to all, Just after your advice, tips and any other info here as I am looking at purchasing a Terios sometime in the near future. The car will be used half and half for city and rural driving. When it comes to rural driving it won’t be the traditional 4X4 bush-bashing, more so gravel and dir ...
