This is good advice.

Remember that Jeeps are "cult" cars. They have a huge devoted following because they are fun. The 100k figure shouldn't bother you too much IF it is an inline 6 motor. They are bullet proof. But, devotees are looking for that and that's why they maintain value.

From your description, I think you would be better off with a small pickup, like a Ford Ranger.

OP here--I do not want a pickup b/c the antiques are valuable and I do not want to risk damaging in transport. The Wrangler has a hard top and is easy to load and keep thing protected but also not slamming around during transport.

Nice try. I get that you want a Jeep, but your rationale is horrible. You need any old SUV or minivan.

OP here. I have thought through and pretty sure my logic is sound. I know what types of pieces I am moving and you don't. The question is where to buy a used Jeep--the why doesn't matter.

But you are wrong!!!! Those of us who have Jeeps love them with a burning passion - but a good vehicle for moving things in - not. Not horrible but not great. Plus, they resale high - it's why I ended up being a new one. You are not going to find a deal on one. SUV, Van.

OP here--please read my original post. You are not answering my question. I asked best place to buy used Jeep. I did not ask where can I get a deal. I did not ask your opinion on what type of vehicle I need. I asked best place to buy used jeep--that's it.
