^ Props on the Grabber Blue Coyote!




You'd think that I would save the Cherokee for the daily, but the Lexus gets way better gas mileage, which is surprising since its a V8 with 300hp/325tq. Snows maybe one day out of the year in Ga, and thats pretty rare, really no need for the Cherokee at all, but I'm not getting rid of it either.

Hes in Texas though, so thats like a "proper" vehicle. Its a beautiful machine, but I could never drive something so big, I would feel like a shrimp hopping out of it....or I would hit 3-4 vehicles paralleling it.

It was kind of a rush buy after I totaled my '99. It'll be my DD until I get a new XJ. I suppose that'll be at about 85k or so, then it'll be my sunny day car. But I definitely bought it to drive.
