Hey guys,
I just picked up a 96 XJ Sport with 111k miles on the clock and no rust for $2,600 a couple weeks ago for a daily driver/winter transportation while my mustangs are being rebuilt. Its pretty much stock for now (with the exception of a kicker stereo system and tints) planning on making a Cold air intake, installing a chip and maybe a new muffler for a couple extra hp/ft lbs. Hopefully going to install a 3in lift and some 31's in the spring time when i get my stangs back on the road
Anyone know of any local trails?
Thanks
Dan

Welcome to CF! I'm in New Fairfield if ya wanna hit some trails when the snow melts.
I honestly don't like going when it's slippery because it's to easy to get freaking stuck lol.

Welcome!
Not sure if you've done much reading on these trucks, but you are probably better off forgetting the CAI and chip. Money poorly spent on the Jeep 4.0 unless you are doing a snorkel.
Save that cash for the 3" lift and 31s.
