I have never really been a jeep fan, so many wranglers around, nothing can be done to one that hasnt already been done. I was more into land rovers, they were different and not many around my home town. time came and past and i ended up selling both land rovers i had. when i time came to get back into off roading i refused to settled for a wrangler, my mom has one and i hate it. but the xj is more my style, different and versitile. so i found a great deal on my 99 and got it for 2500$ with 165000k miles on it. great shape, every thing worked and a good straight body no rust. the day after i bought it, i woke up done a mobile one fluid change on it and was headed to town for lunch with my dad. i never made it to town. 23hrs after i bought it, it was totaled. a lady pulled out in front of me and i t boned her at abt 45mph. i still say the land rover gods did it to me, i was wearing a land rover shirt at the time. lol but i bought the jeep back from the insurance company for 500$ and got a check for 3200$. so i came out in the good and have rebuilt and put the UGLY JEEP back on the road. it has now under went more cosmetic surgery with a chop top, and custom front bumper. i must say i have the jeep bug and i now understand. hope to see yall on the trail.
