V6....pass.

That would be the most expensive winter set up ever.

We have one, it's a tank. That is a lot lot lot of miles for that car though.

 

[Uberryan]

those miles... you'll be paying maintenance costs all winter.

my wife just referred to me a moron for proposing this... i guess i have my answer. ha.

 

[(. )( .)]

lol that's hellllla cheap.


WHY NOT!@?

IDK man that pretty damn cheap. Can you get a warranty on it? If so that would be ideal. It seems to be a well maintained vehicle aesthetically. Depending on your disposable income, it wouldn't hurt to buy it if a warranty could be purchased as well. That's cheap 4wd if you ask me.

carfax shows 2 accidents---probably not the best car to haul kids around in---but that price is so tempting

 

[Squashdaddy]

That is the cleanest 264k mile vehicle I have ever seen. I would probably buy it if it didn't have any problems.

Do you need inspection for the first year in Ohio? If not (and it's not something critical), buy it for the winter and sell or part it out in the summer lol

 

[marsh1665]

you have to e-check used cars passed a certain age---but not sure if you have to e-check overtime title transfers, or just every 2 years. but yes, drive it until spring, then off-road it until it breaks, then junk it

What makes you think a Jeep with worn tires will do well in the snow? Even a 4wd needs snow tires. I figure with that mileage maintenance won't be cheap on that Jeep.
