This has little to no relevance...but I just saw a FJ40 the other day driving by with a liscence plate that said "8 no jp" Thought it was pretty damn hilarious although most people probably wouldnt understand what it means.

 

Best Jeep to buy is the J series ( YJ, CJ, XJ). the Cherokee's are GARBAGE! they leak more than a snitch, the intake is stupid low and the approach angle is GREATLY lower than on a stock 4Runner.
I would buy a YJ, like my uncles, 5" Rancho Lift, 35" Swampers, Soft Top, Chevy Small block, custom Borla dual tail exhaust, etc etc.

4Runners have small problems, Jeeps have MAJOR problems
4Runners have better ground clearance/app. angle/depart. angle over Cherokees.
