Yes! We hooked another one! :BANANA: My 19yo nephew Justin got rid of his Acura and just got a '95 Grand Cherokee Laredo! Haven't seen it yet, but I know it needs a lot of work. :roll: V6 and a transmission that already needs replaced! :roll: .... That's okay .... The Acura doesn't run either! :wink: I guess I'm gonna be puttin in a tranny pretty soon! I told him he needs to start getting on Lost, but he doesn't have internet right now. Some of you may remember him from the Big Rock Off Road trip or Badlands. He sent me one pic from his phone.

He was hooked at Big Rock last Sept., the Badlands trip this past April just sealed the deal

Go iron rock or don't go at all

their lifts for wranglers and grands are very well priced and they have a awesome range of variations for the lifts depending on how detailed and how high you wanna go

and they're tough as nails

just my personal opinion ;)

What was wrong with calling the car a Japanese vehicle?

My PC has no problem displaying it. Oh wait, you mean that we must not offend anyone stuff. Since the guys that drive them call them Japanese vehicles is it really that offensive?

Does this mean I can't call inline skates by the much used fruit boots?

Whoever edited my post has offended many. A lot of those cars are Korean.

I too came from what you would refer to as a tuner car, and Ill never be leaving jeep. Made the mistake of choosing a 2000 tiburon over a 2000 tj with a 4.0 back in 2000. Had I made the right choice then Id still have the TJ and would have saved myself from all this going fast nonsense.
