Talking new baby in the house!

Picked up a new Grand Cherokee today. Well new for me
2003 Laredo with inline 6 and quadratrac2. 74k miles. $6500
I contacted the woman 15 minutes after she posted the ad on craigslist. (thanks craigshopper for mac!)
I'm the 2nd owner. Garaged all its life. Runs like new. Still had the window sticker in the glove box.
Small 6" round dent in right front fender by the door is the only thing that I can find to complain about. At least I don't have to worry about that first scratch! haha.

This baby has never had dirt on the wheels till I hit that spot on the way home to test the low range. Worked like a charm.

Looking to lift about 4" and put a rack on top and winch and bumper on the front. Some new mud tires and she will be ready to ROCK.


I'm so happy.
