You & Your Jeep Cherokee - Buying, enjoying, maintaining, modifying

Launched in the UK in 1993, the original Jeep Cherokee quickly gained popularity. Slightly smaller and more car-like than many competitors, it combined off-road capability with strong on-road performance.
Its American heritage ensured a well-equipped vehicle, often offering features as standard that were optional on European rivals. The model range later expanded with the Grand Cherokee and Wrangler.

This owner's manual for the Jeep Cherokee 4x4 provides a detailed model history, guidance on purchase, use, maintenance, and modifications, as well as specifications, model changes, and production figures. Fully illustrated in color.

Wagoneer, Gladiator, Comanche, and Scrambler: An Illustrated History of Jeep's Tough, Go-Anywhere Wagons and Pickups

As Jeep sales have skyrocketed in recent years, the company has put more money and muscle behind vintage names like Wagoneer and Gladiator, and has jumped into pickups as never before. But what made their past vehicles good enough to bring their names back now?

The Wagoneer and its companion, the Gladiator pickup, were well ahead of their time in technology, the first 4x4s with an independent front suspension and automatic transmission. Updates through the years kept them at the forefront of 4x4 technology, but their tough, go-anywhere nature never changed over a long, long product run.
The Wagoneer name was also attached to the revolutionary "XJ" series; more commonly associated with the original Cherokee, these tough wagons were an efficient, lightweight unibody design, but were just as capable off-road as the senior Wagoneers.

"Wagoneer, Gladiator, Comanche, and Scrambler" dives into what made the "XJ" and "ZJ" Wagoneers special - and how they differed from the Cherokee and Grand Cherokee. With the new Gladiator making a splash, it's time to look back on Jeep's pickups, not just the original Gladiator, but also one of the most innovative trucks ever made: the Comanche. It shared a great deal with the Cherokee, but clever design gave it both superior ground clearance and the lowest bed height of any comparable 4x4 pickup.

The book also covers the CJ-8 Scrambler, which is possibly more popular off-road today than it was at dealerships when it was made. This book traces the history and present state of some of Jeep's newest vehicles, including the upcoming Wagoneer and the new Gladiator, and some of its most famous and most-loved, with original and period photography; it's a "must-have" for any Jeep enthusiast.
