Blue Beast
Hey everyone! I'm Josh from Kansas CIty.
I bought a 1995 Jeep Cherokee two week ago and I love it!!!
Before this I drove a 2010 Jeep Patriot and enjoyed it, but I've always wanted something that was more customizable.
The Cherokee already has a 4.5" Rough Country lift and 31" tires, it is AWESOME!!!!
I've got a couple mods I wanna do soon and I cant wait to mess around on some trails.
Edit:
So I felt like posting some pics of my previous cars just for fun
My first car (The Bat Mobile) a 2005 Grand Prix
Wish I had a video of the exhaust because it sounded great, had to replace the manifold back after being rear ended so obviously I went with headers, 2.5" pipes to Super 44's and Magnaflow tips. went from single before to true dual after. She was a beauty, but when 150k rolled around it was time to sell her.
Next was the 2010 Patriot, never really got to do anything because there is little to no aftermarket market out there for the Patriot. So after a couple years of boredom my Fiancé had the amazing idea that she wanted to drive the Pat and we could sell her Civic and I'd get whatever I wanted with the money. So for just $600 more than the civic I got the Beast.

For sure, I plan on eventually taking the trim off and bed lining the trim parts, the fender flares, and both bumpers.

So the other day I was driving around and noticed my exhaust was black, so when I got home I checked and found it was just pouring out oil and my oil pressure sending unit was broken… Just got the oil changed a couple days ago and I guess Jiffy Lube broke it while changing it and figured I wouldn't notice. So $150 bucks later she's fixed and driving fine, but Im definitely never going to a Jiffy Lube again.

Thanks I really love it, I kind of want to do a Panthro theme with it (Thundercats).
Cant wait for warmer weather so I can do more to it.

$70 plus labor and crap, yeah it was a lot but I needed it quick so I couldn't really shop around… Do you have the oil pressure gauge or just the light? I hear the gauge one cost more

Hey guys quick question, I was thinking about bed lining my flares and stuff this weekend and I'm leaning toward Herculiner or Monstaliner. Didn't know if what the general consensus was about these two products? Also I am thinking about lining my wheels too but Im probably going to spray them anyone know of a good rattle can liner that would match the look without the weight/price?
