Yea. Either no insurance. Or warrants. No telling. All I cared about was happy I was OK. And getting to the hospital and calling my wife. Just glad her and the kids weren't with me.

Miswired the stupid switch. I have working fog/offroad/aux lights on the bumper now! One of these days I will clean up the relay wiring. Did it in the dark last night so it's not as clean as I'd like.

I did the same thing yesterday to both of my Jeeps. I don't even know how much I spent . On gas I put Premium fuel in both Jeeps the Xj took 17.8 gallons the Yj took 18.2 gallons. Then i added 1/2 can of seafoam to the gas tank on both jeeps, then 1/2 can on a vacuum hose the Xj didnt smoke too bad the YJ fumigated the entire zip code . Today I washed, waxed, vacuumed out the interior , armor all'd the interior and cleaned the windows. On the XJ.
