Chery's #2... although I have plans to make her #3. But she spends most of her time on the road.

Hi flowpro I use my 97' XJ as a daily driver for work , ferrying kids around. No plans to ever offroad . Going to keep it looking good . Maybe clean up under the hood and clean underside. No rust at all underneath .

Miss Moneypenny falls under catagory #3. She gets me to work and gets the groceries, but, we also wheel pretty good. I was'nt sure whether to pick #2 or #3 but I happened to be going over her today in preperation for an upcoming trip and noticed all the carnage underneath her, rear diff covers peeled back, lower control arm brackets are hammered, mufflers dented, gas tanks all marked up, rear bumpers hammered on, wheels are rock rashed as can be. So definately #3.
