Skinner Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 So since the 3 was coming up on the end of its lease was time to find something newer and a bit bigger. Found this Jeep on the cheap. Its a 98 with just over 100k on the ODO. paint and body are in great shape. Int is like new. Needs a couple small things but overall I'm really happy I got it. http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b180/smskinner/th_100_1627.jpg http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b180/smskinner/th_100_1628.jpg http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b180/smskinner/th_100_1629.jpg http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b180/smskinner/th_100_1630.jpg http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b180/smskinner/th_100_1631.jpg http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b180/smskinner/th_100_1632.jpg http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b180/smskinner/th_100_1633.jpg http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b180/smskinner/th_100_1634.jpg http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b180/smskinner/th_100_1635.jpg http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b180/smskinner/th_100_1636.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bam Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 How is that possibly newer than a 3? lol Anywho, good pickup, we looked at some of those but all the ones I checked out were noisy and and didn't ride the best. But they sure look nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

copperhead Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 Looks good, but don't you need something with another row of seats? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 Just change the oil, and it will go for 150k more. Oh, try doing a tight circle, like full lock on the wheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nitrousbird Posted April 5, 2009 Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 You should paint your garage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinner Posted April 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2009 You should paint your garage. And your should get your firebird running but lets not talk about what we should be doing. If your that concerned your more than welcome to come over and do it. Just need to finish mudding the walls first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mitch Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 I've got a full set of steelies from my old xj taking up room in my garage. One still has a good tire on it. If you want them to mount snow tires on or whatever, you can have them. Anyways it looks nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fiji ST Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 Sucks you had to give up the 3, although you had issues with it, but nice choice. One of the very few SUVs I would ever own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
