Traded in my bmw. Coolant issues and a jacked up head gasket. I miss it but I got reliability now and not a rear wheel drive sedan in michigan winters. Goodbye Clause, you will be missed
The replacement is a cherokee. Reliable, boring as hell.. doubt it's fast enough for a ticket but it's clean. Im adulting hard as fuck

Well that blows, but unfortunately with these batteries, if the price seems too good to be true, it usually is.

I thought you would never get a jeep? Well I guess it's still not.....
Haha they drive nice.....as a big time xj owner I had to try it when it came out.......it's cool. The pass seat storage is nice. It's smooth....I tested it out in the winter on a back road in vt......it works for what it's intended for. What trim did you get? New?

Just a lightly used sport. Really just wanted reliability. It's not a jeep. It's a fiat with a jeep badge lol. It's nothing special, I had a wrangler as a kid. That was a 4.0 monster. The fiat jeep is only the 2.4.

I feel ya, I sometimes think about trading my Volvo for a Toyota, but then I remember that my mechanics kids need to eat too, so I just bend over and apply the lube...

I looked real hard for a 4runner, rav4, tacoma. Toyota people are hard-core, they dont trade in, they pass down through generations

15 F in the garage. Ripped a couple of 2"x3"s on the tablesaw. Did not bother to put clothes on for it. Wasn't going to be there too long so why bother?

My brother has a 1999 Corolla closing in on 300k, you have to open the driver side door from the outside because the handle is broken, and the headliner is falling off.
He refuses to let it go, and wouldn’t sell it to me for $1000, lol

I want to use it for a delivery vehicle till the wheels fall off, but I suspect he’ll be driving it for a few more years

Yeah, they call it a jeep product. It's still gets the job done.....you can get to work. And I'm sure very mild camping can be done.
Still have my one xj with a long arm.......don't think I will ever get rid of it.......just bought all new stainless brake lines for it this fall I have to put on.

I’ve had a Camry and a Corolla. Both were champions that died glorious deaths in battle, not of old age.
One of which was actually purchased with donations from my RIU family during a very low point in my life.
Don’t worry y’all, I’m still paying it forward for that one!

I've had almost as many jeeps as I've had skis....lol....no not even close. But I have had a number of xj's and a few wranglers.......but never a full size. My friend has a big original 2 door cherokee that's a sweet work in progress.
