'05 Limited with 80k, $8500, leather, sunroof, disc changer, etc., except no tow package.

OR

'04 Sport with 80k, $8000, not much for options except it does have a tow package.
Image

I won't be doing hardcore wheeling with whatever I get. It'll get a small lift, slightly bigger tires, and I'd use it to tow a 2500lb trailer now and then. I won't buy either of these for the asking price, I think they'd have to come down at least $500-$1000 for me to consider it.

Ive thought about it but I dont have the guts right now to cut a big in in my roof. Ive seen skysliders you can buy and install like the KK's have but I think they were fairly expensive.

Would I be missing out by not having the heavy duty cooling since the Limited doesn't have a tow package?

Are you be going to do a lot of towing? If not, then definitely no. If you are, you should still be fine, lots of people here go without it (I think). I think it is still available to be put on isn't guys?

I'd go with the sport. All thoes chrome options you are gonna rip off, scrathc and dent.
Save the few extra bucks and add some rugged stuff

I'd go sport...extra cooling is always good and I have never been a fan of white vehicles of any type.

i like em both, but id say go for the white one because of all the extra options. you could always take off the running boards and taillight gaurds and sell em so it doesnt look as blingy! and then later on you can upgrade the wheels with some nice offroad tires. I have always loved white jeeps! but the green one looks very nice too! its up to you! either one you wont be dissapointed in. just depends if you want the nice options inside or not.

Do people actually use this? I've never had that option in my cars. I figure if I think I'll need 4wd I'll just put it into 4wd lol.
