I think you will be fine with the plates that are on the XJ and documentation showing you just purchased the vehicle (IE notarized title).
If there are No plates on the XJ then yes you might need temp plates.

Once you get here, just go to Secretary of state and they will set you up.

I'm in Ann Arbor let me know if you need help on the Jeep.

The previous owner will take her plates off before i get the car. I already have insurance ready to go pretty much. And I will be calling SOS office exactly at 9am to see if they can fax? me temp plates or something.

One last thing, once i get the jeep today what are some key things i can do to drive it 900 miles? The jeep is good condition from what i am being told, also it passed inspection just recently. oh it also has 130k miles on it. Thanks for the help fellas.

trs80 ann arbor isnt very far from where i am going so you might be seeing me in the near future!

Sounds good!

Maybe a simple tune up if you have time. Change the oil and filter. Maybe the fuel filter. Put some fuel system cleaner in. That should be enough for the time being.
