I will be looking at a local 07 AT Sahara Unlimited today. The jeep looks completely stock, one owner with 107k. The mileage worried me a bit, until I researched somewhat. The guy says the miles are all highway with his commute being 100 miles a day. Just wanted to get more opinions on the mileage. What should I look for when test driving? What would be a good price? I originally wanted a manual, but if I can get this for a good deal, I may bite. This will be my first jeep.. Thanks in advance.

you will love the automatic and a sahara is a great model. my wife had an auto sahara (older model though) and it was great. we drove it all over texas as our family vehicle. after that, i had to buy my own wrangler and i got an auto 6 cylinder laredo because i couldn't find a sahara with all the little options i wanted at a price i wanted to pay.
check it over like you would any normal 4x4 or vehicle. no weird sound or odd shifting. no pulling, shakes, or vibrations. no over heating, make sure the ac works and the heat works. make sure the wipers work in all settings and the fan speeds on the ac. all the usual stuff.
let it idle in neutral and run for about 20 minutes while you walk around and check it with the ac on. let it get up to temp so you can pop the hood and see that there are no leaks and it idles at the right temp.
if it feels good, it probably is.
