I bought a new creature
...a 98 Grand Cherokee Limited 5.9L, it seems you either own a jeep or an f-body on the forum. Got it for 2700$ with 135k. Got to say I love these things and finally have one, but I never knew I would love to get my Z's mpg then I do now Lol!
(Only pic right now, next to my brothers TJ)

Still deciding what I want but probably a small lift with 31's or 32's, going to get full exhaust, probably slap a safari rack and stinger on if I get excess cash. It needs a few odds and ends but its pretty solid so far, but plenty of directions I can go

Previous owner swapped in a 242 transfer case so I don't have to be full time

Nice.. I have a Jeep Liberty for work! I hate the thing. If I could trade it in for my old minivan I would.

Yep.. Its a 2012 liberty and it looks nice but the seats suck, it gets like 17mpg on the highway and 10 around town, is slow as hell, and has about 5 major blind spots!! Its free and that is the only reason why it hasnt been tossed off a cliff!( that and its hard to find a cliff in SNJ) It probably will do well off roading but havent had the chance to take it yet.

Bah, get a Paxton SC kit, put some lightweight wheels/tires on it, and strip the skid plates and other non-essentials.  There was a guy that used to hang out up on Rt. 59 in Nyack ages ago that had one set up that way, and it was friggin' quick!
Looks like a nice truck, enjoy!
