2 Years 3 months since I bought mine(used) and I will keep the old girl for awhile yet.

Need to do a lot more modding to it in the future....so I got to keep it around.

March will be 8 years that I have had my '02. It now has 139,800 miles on it! It still runs like a champ. 80 percent of those miles are highway - commuting when I lived in Connecticut...

Took delivery September 21st 2004
with about 100 miles since they delivered it to me at work.
Had never driven a KJ until after I signed the papers
Has never been inside of a dealership.
135,000 miles
My 95 XJ had over 265,000 on it when I got this and I expect it to last at least as long;)

feb 28 (last year) too when I got mine.. my very first jeep, and how sweet this thing is...

few days ago it has shown me yet anohter reason to smile and brag to me: you've made the right decision!!!

while all other vehicles were stranded because of the last snow storm, this jeep of mine keeps me moving... as if there's not even a problem on the road... really sweet! hahaha!

1st year on Jan 2nd :p, Now that im doing some fun mods to it until i get enough money to finish buying my suspension, im keeping it !! If i had my Grand Am 99 for 8 years i can certainly do this favor to my KJ... So its 1 year and 4300 km later .... Yeah i live close to work :p Oh and in the 4300km that includes a ride to Montreal ( 3 hours away ) and 2 to Quebec City ( 1 hour away ) ... loll Yes i have to charge the battery to make sure it wont fall down as the alternator cant really charge it ....

Not the mountains.
I'll have mine for one year at the end of next month. Mine had 21k when I bought it. It has 33K on it now. Love mine every single time I drive it. I especially love it when the snow comes. Mods shall start occurring after the KJ gets paid off.:cool:

I will have had mine 3 years this coming February. The 10th, I think... but I'd have to go check the sales receipts. :D

I'm gonna drive the poor thing into the ground, if I have my way. :)
