Jan Richey's 612,000-Mile 1988 Jeep Cherokee
This is a one-owner 1988 Jeep Cherokee Pioneer 4x4, with the original engine, in top condition after 612,000 miles (as of February 2011). Jan drives it nearly ever day.
Jan had it repainted the original Colorado Red. The 4-liter straight-six engine, however, has required no internal work. He has all the service records, and three log books documenting every expense, including gasoline with mileage and location. Jan personally performs all lube and oil changes, using Mobil 1 synthetic oil with Tufoil as an additive.
The upholstery on the seats and the carpets are original - the carpet was completely covered with a custom mat when Jan's kids had muddy boots. The rear seat is in perfect condition.
Jan wrote, "Have you ever worn out a seat belt buckle? I did so that is why the replacement does not match."
If you attended the Dream Cruise in Detroit during August 2008, you may have seen it with signs on the Yakima rack proclaiming "600,000" miles. That was a bit of an exaggeration but he can now truly document the 612,000 miles.
