Finally pulled the trigger on buying a KJ. Ended up with an Silver 05 Sport Automatic with a Sunroof with 63K. The exterior is flawless, not a scratch on it. The seats only have some light stains on it. Going to use everyones Oxyclean advice once it get's a little warmer out.

We were looking at an 06 with 39K on the clock over the weekend. But once we took it for a test drive we decided to pass on it. The interior on the 06 looked like it was the host of a college frat party. All the seats were stained ( brown and tan). And the KJ was suffering from a misfire and a weird vibration at 65 MPH

Here's a couple of quick pic's I took once we had it in the driveway.

Sorry about that...I realized I had the tag wrong when I first posted it then and went and corrected it. I think you were posting while I was making the change.

Looks like you found a nice Jeep and you are breaking it in right (in the snow)! Congratulations.

I was thinking the same thing. I had Wrangler Silent Armor.. kinda nearing the end of life and those were horrable in the rain too.

Very nice looking Jeep! welcome!
I nearly got a silver crd so yeah that is a great color. Looks like a Chrome grill on that too and its a sport.

I put some 245/70/16 bfg all terrains on about 2 weeks ago. Got rid of the smaller General Grabber AT2 that were on there. I ran the bfg all terrains on my old YJ and never had a problem with them.

First mod will be installing a tow hitch. I will be going to Colebrook NH this weekend and will be towing a 2 place trailer and one sled. Possibly 2 if I can get my buddy to commit to go riding this weekend.
