Man for some reason I really like that white XJ in Braytonia's pictures. Looks familiar for some reason. Good luck to everyone!
You cheesy guy, you.
That being said, he got my vote. That's an everyman's XJ right there. All the entries this month are great guys, but Braytonia's kinda got that "Hooptie" vibe if ya know what I mean

It may be a hooptie in most people's eyes but that "hooptie" was only 800 bucks (running with 4wd) and gets me through more trails than I could ever ask for! sometimes even more than 5-speeds XJ... Shhhhh, don't tell him I said that though.
Thanks for the love guys and everyone who voted for my hooptie thus far!! =)

Haha he called it a hooptie! Thats going to be the new nickname.
We will talk later Ill just leave it at this....
I remember this day all too well... 5-speed; "hey Brayton, INTENTIONALLY get yourself stuck in the mud so I can see if my 4wd swapped XJ and new recovery rope can pull you out." Me; "Ok, I love mud!!" I was inticed...
Just wait until I dig up that one picture where you high centered on a SMALL hill and my "hooptie" had to pull you off... Just wait!

lol.... I meant "Hooptie" as in similar to the build of my (former) Jeep which was named "The Hooptie".... but there's room in this world for more than one Hooptie!
