That looks like a well kept Jeep. If you download the myCARFAX app and plug in that vin # it will show you past maintenance history that may have been performed. I’m new to jeeps myself having just bought a 2011 Liberty and love the way it drives. I read through the kk section here for a couple of days before purchasing. I did find some concerns and issues to expect, not enough to deter me, but enough that I did purchase a pricey power train warranty. I’m sure others will chime in, as far a price it looks good there. Still negotiate though.

Welcome, Just bought a 2006 for my 17 year old. He was looking for the KJ style and we found one for 2200 with 127k. It was NOT well kept and that’s partially what we wanted-something we could work on together. When maintained well these Jeeps do last. While we were looking we saw plenty with over 200k and prices varied from 1500 to 8000 in the Chicago area.

I read through posts on here looking for popular posts so we knew what common problems to look for.

Good luck!
