As soon as I do I will post some pics and would love to join on some trips. I am located in vegas actually about 10 to 15 min from apex so that is the nice part. Look forward to meeting and talking to all of you.
Welcome Wood!

Waiting on the sellers son to leave and she is taking his car and selling me the Cherokee for 400. She bought it brand new in 96. I am trying to get it friday but I dont think she will do the deal early.

Weather was so nice I cruised around and found some scenic back drops.

it was hard trying to decide between having the "stuffed" look of a mall crawler
or an actual functional 4wd vehicle with tire clearance.

I ended up going with clearance

I think you got that backwards lol. The stuffed look of function an the excessive wheel gap of a mall crawler


Lift and wheel gap don't get you ground clearance. Big tires do
