Nice Country btw! Love the two tone.
thanks! and i agree... unless you're big on off-roading, then there's really no need. you can always get some nice tires and a lift though.. (just in case)

Its a nice looking Jeep that could be awesome.....if it were a 4x4.
To tell you the truth. I find ur statement offensive. I own a 2wd 4 door Cherokee and it is lifted and it is amazing.

That would ruin the "Jeep" aspect of the vehicle

Yup! Planning on a 3" RC lift and 31s real soon. I just love the look. XJs are my favorite body style of any type of car ever, and i'm usually more of a fast car guy. Unfortunately, stock XJs look a little too much like station wagons. They NEED lifts to look how they should.
