We got two of them, wranglers, XJ and a ZJ, the TJ works fine for me, I don't consider it a specialty vehicle, I consider it an easier to work on Jeep.
Check the frame though, back by the shocks, they tend to rust and if it's an immigrant from say NY state really look it over, they use a blue spray that should be called 'rust cars faster' to pre-treat the roads there during the winter hence the NY state standard of two cars, one for winter and your good car for the rest of the year.
I would pretty well jump on a sahara for that price provided it was in pretty good shape.
