Jeff, Since you're knowledgeable on Jeeps. The old 99 cherokee's and and grand cherokee suvs, are they any good? anything i need to look out for? They seem to be pretty cheap on craigslist.
Those are all unibody Jeeps. Just general road crap tends to build up in the body and rot them from the inside out. It is almost impossible to avoid and you won't necessarily be able to see the really bad stuff.
The engines and trannys are bullet proof. The t-cases' are so-so but not bad. They do have a better rear end then most Wranglers but they are leaf sprung which has it's own issues (aka rusty mounts that tend to break).
All and all, they are not bad if you are only looking for a cheap winter beater that you are prepared to walk away from after a couple of years. Just be prepared to have issues.

I didn't even really get to use my snow tires last year. Maybe this year they can prove their worth.

That's the thing, mine are 19 inch wheels. 19 inch tires are so expensive for some damn reason.
