Thanks Zach! She pulls like a champ, its nice!

I'm in the process of getting a trailer, & going OHV! It's just easier, plus I'm sure I'll be swapping out to a newer XJ soon enough that this body/vin# doesn't really matter! Sorry no pic of the trailer yet

I want a newer rig. I'd still look for a 2 door, but who knows... this ones gonna end up on tons I'm sure! I'd just like to start out with something cleaner. More or less, if I go ohv I won't be stuck as ohv, cause these XJs are so cheap!
