How many miles and how much?

I am still trying to figure out how to use this forum. I have tried to add some pictures but get told too many mb. When I try to reply to folks becomes testy about sign in process ... Anyone who can give me a quick tutorial, I would appreciate. Or how to find a tutorial, if there is one.

Meanwhile, an update on our toad vehicle. I have realized that the location of the jeep has been tied to our home residency which is Florida. This 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4x4 Limited is actually in Washington State.  We drove it all around Mt. Rainier yesterday and will be moving up to Puget Sound area next week. We will be in Washington/Oregon area (and so will the Jeep) until October and are looking for a new tow vehicle while here. The Jeep has been great for our FT toad with a 2 man kayak carried on top and 2 bikes on bike rack on back. When we are home in Fl, it also sometimes tows our 19ft boat. It has done, and still does it all! If you are lucky enough to be in the Pacific NorthWest this summer and are interested in looking at the jeep or have questions, let us know.

The gentleman is right. The engine was replaced with an engine that had much less miles from an auto salvage company

The engine was replaced in April 2019 and has 120,000 ? I must misunderstand

2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4x4 set up for towing with tow package and braking system. It has the 5.4 Hemi Limited package. This has been our tow car for the last 5 years. We bought it used, the total mileage is 174,000 and we have put on the last 90,000 miles. We have always had all suggested maintenance and service done at Jeep dealerships. In April, we replaced the engine. The replacement engine has 120,000 miles on it. The Jeep has new tires, tan leather upholstery with wear on the drivers seat. Other accessories include heated seats, cruise control, upgraded stereo system with multi CD player. It also comes equipped with a tow bar for pulling trailers or boat.
