I have an 04 WJ Special Edition, have a 4.0 with 452.000 miles, and finally doing my first major repair, catalic converter . Few minor things, such as the hood and liftgate struts, and the drivers door wiring issues, repaired the broken wires, all good. Engine and transmission are all original .

2004 4.0 281,000 miles. I had a broken seat frame and bad lift gate pistons. Junk yard fix. Also, I use a cut key every day with no issues. Best car I've ever owned hands down.

Another quick story. Was pulling my trailer from the middle of a mud pit after being loaded with PA gear, maybe 3000lbs. This was a 2005 with 4.7. 2wheel drive. Once I started to try to carefully pull out, I realized this was a very bad situation. Two guys bouncing on the bumper/hitch/trailer tongue area and it crawled its way out of there. If you had witnessed it you would have said it was incredible, just like all of those you tube vids. I once have to go around a gate through a massive ditch, at an angle of course, where the whole truck fit in the ditch. I committed to the maneuver, powered up the other side at 45 degree angle, left front wheel went for the sky, then front end landed, and I was through. I knew it would be a risk, but the Jeep repeatedly got me out of otherwise stuck situations, all with just 2 wheel drive. Awesome

Great video and very accurate. Mine's a 1999 WJ 4.7 with 240,000. Well maintained. I counted along as you named off the problems and ended up with my Jeep having had 9 of the 16 or so you mentioned.I fix the problems as the come along and still enjoy the ride. Have also replaced the steering gear (wobble), rear tail-lights ( corroded connectors ), radiator, rear differential re-built (whine), and PCM.

I am 40 years old. the first car I bought at 19 was a chevy Corsica, which I crashed. The next purchase was a 1997 Cherokee 4.0 Drove that to 190000. Turned that into a wheeler and bought a 2000 grand 4.7. I drove that until last fall, she was just falling apart. Gave that to my brother to turn into a wheeler. I test drove a couple of 2010's and hated them. Bought a really clean 2003 overland 4.7 HO and love it. So the jist of the story, 20 years, 2 jeeps.I expect the overland to last another 6 years and only paid 4k for it. definatly built to last

My 99 4.7 has 239k and runs strong. Minimal maintenance. After dealing with every sensor, alt, starter, wireing harness around the doors, still gets me around. Many many front end parts too. It does fly still

I have an 04 wj 4.7. She been my daily driver for 14 years. There is 194k on it. I recently replaced the ac compressor and condensor. Its hot in GA. I have been through two water pumps. The aftermarket ones only last two or three years. Also replaced the radiator. I am doing the valve cover gaskets next and pct valve.
