B8 THE OAKVILLE BEAVER Wednesday, January 12, 2000 AUTOMOTIVE Popular Jeep Cherokee breeds loyalty This hangover from the old AMC days simply refuses to die. Each year, just when you think Chrysler will put the old gal out to pasture, anxious buyers step up to purchase tens of thousands of them. Talk about brand loyalty. Obviously, lots of folks love this honest, straightforward sport ute, regardless of its age. The Cherokee marches on for 2000, but an all new-2001 version is in the works, proof that the model is a top gun in its niche. Last year, the Cherokee received a host of upgrades, which included a new Sport appearance package, an air con ditioning compressor that cycles off for improved standingstart performance, plus optional heated front driver and pas senger seats. For the new Millennium, the Cherokee comes in three models - Sport, Classic and Limited - and in four-wheel drive only. As well, the 2.5-litre four-cylinder is no longer available, making the 4.0-litre 16 with its all-new five-speed manual transmission the only engine available. The Limited gets the nod as the top dog with its own spe cial wheels and graphics. Other improvements for 2000 include new front-end brightwork, new wheels, better headlights and several new colors.

LIMITED TIME O F F E R . > 1998 Pontiac Suniire Tires need special attention in winter Chances are you gave your vehicle's tires a good look before the winter weather set in - it's almost a Canadian ritu al! But when was the last time you checked their pressure? Correct tire pressure is vital for fuel economy, safe vehi cle handling and long tire life. And it's especially important during the winter. That's because cold temperatures cause the air pressure in tires to drop, which adds to the rolling resistance created by snow and slush. Each tire that is under-inflated by 2 psi (14 kPa) causes a one percent increase in fuel consumption. Under-inflation can also affect the way a tire grips the road, which can result in handling problems. For your own safety and to keep your fuel consumption to a minimum, check tire pressures regularly during the win ter, especially after there has been a sharp drop in tempera ture. Before adding air to your tires, let some air out of each valve and blow some air out of the hose. This prevents mois ture from gather ing in the tire valve, where it can freeze and cause the valve to leak. As well, use your own tire pressure gauge, since the gauges built into air pumps at service stations are often inaccurate or missing. It's also a good idea to rotate your tires regu larly (every 10,000 kilom e tres or so) to dis tribute the wear evenly among all four tires. In addition to pro moting long tire life, this will help your tires deliver the best possible econom y and safety.
