  1. There are two older jeeps for sale at precision door on 37 south of 256. One is a YJ. That's all I know.
  2. But buy fiat/Chrysler anything? Makes sense Put me on the list if you ever want to sell it. I'd need to upgrade the brakes though.
  3. You ain't gonna wheel a $30k + jeep. How much for our beloved gap truck?
  4. My dad had a 4cyl (iron duke) YJ. It was slow as shit. 45 up the hill on 33 before Athens. Stock gearing is not made for 31" + tires.
  5. They have been pretty well groomed opening weekend in years past.
  6. Is that why you drove your wife's ranger for years?
  7. ^ OK, let's compare apples to doorknobs. Look, kids, I'm not hating on newer jeeps. I just like the old ones better. Carburetion and less electronic doodads are much better for an off-road machine in my opinion. Less shit to break. Not 10 grand with 200k miles. It's just my opinion. Don't anyone get there feelers hurt because I have a different opinion than you or we're going to have to move this to the politics section. I'm not going to apologize for my preference for old jeeps. They're simply easier to work on and cheaper to turn into a reliable Offroad machine.
  8. Let me know if you bubbys wanna do that again. Especially after the roads are cleaner and the days are longer.
  9. See, that shit is retarded right there. You can call me pissy all you want, there is no 200 k Chrysler on the road worth even close to double NADA. And My point about the CJ v TJ, jk or whatever the new unit is called is that an off road vehicle doesn't need big HP #'s, it needs to be reliable and easy to repair on the trail. One of the most capable off road machines ever built is the 118 horse 22R Toyota pickup Besides, how many people are stupid enough or can afford to beat the shit out of a 40k jeep off road? Jeeps were supposed to be a very Spartan, dirt cheap, easy to repair, go anywhere machine. Thats been perverted big time. If you're going to buy a 3.6 jeep, stay away from the 2012. They puked head gaskets like a freshman girl at a frat party.
  10. Still plenty of tread. Can't see air yet.
  11. Soo, this is on its way. You guys are welcome to come down and hang out, but I'm not riding in that. you can even drive and I won't make fun of you. Promise. @bowdog
  12. Why are these dumb whores not making out?
  13. I completely disagree. Coil overs Oversprings maybe but I do believe that the 80s CJ's had coil overs. Engine wise it's no contest. I'll take the old 258/4.0 over any recent Chrysler product any day of the week. Transmission wise, I wouldn't know because I only had manuals. Except that my CJ five was Chevy drivetrain. 383/350 turbo/NP 205 with Dana's front and back. I don't ever remember anyone having an issue with a Dana front or rear end back in the day. These sad Chrysler built excuses for off-road vehicles with the jeep name slapped on them don't hold a candle to the CJ platform.
  14. They are not much cheaper. Those things hold their value better than Harleys. I never understood the concept of buying such a Spartan vehicle for $20-$30,000 new. Back when I had my CJ's, you could get a really nice example for 2500 bucks. Not going to happen today. These new sissy jeeps have carpet, way less suspension travel (as in none factory) and way more electronic poop to deal with. That new V-6 is no match for the old 258/4.0 in-line six. From the factory, they are convertible chick cars with winter driving capability. If you want to build one for Offroad, plan on sinking a shit load of money into it. You will be in used Corvette territory in no time.
  15. I have a 400 ex and a wolverine.
  16. 4 whillers. Occasionally donkeys.
  17. Only if it rains. Nobody wants to ride the back way to Hocking in the rain.
  18. In what southern state are you looking for this unicorn?
  19. You want to ride one of those dusty old motorcycles today?
  20. The sheep in the Hiltin are hotter than the pigs in the Possum Lodge.
