All CJ's YJ's TJ's and the new KJ's come standard 4x4 as well as grand cherokees. Some older cherokees are 2wd, as well as comanchees and a few of the newer jeeps are not 4x4 either.

I owned a 4x4 89 cherokee. Was the best beater/first vehicle I ever owned. For those who know Backus Campground back home...yeah been there did that. 4x4'd allll over that place haha made a huge mess. This was like 5 years ago now though Also took it down a clay road after 2 days worth of rain. THAT WAS INSANE!! haha Until I started slidin sideways and couldnt correct it and drove straight into the 4' deep ditch. SWORE I tore the front wheel right off NOPE! Just started truck back up and backed out no problems! I would highly reconmend buying one!

I've owned 2 jeeps, I sold the second one to a good friend they are solid vehicles for the most part that take a beating like a good stepchild.
