Jeep and 4x4 newbie here.
Hi all,
I've never owned a jeep before. I'm looking to purchase a used vechicle in the next couple of months. My budget is around eight thousand USD. I'm looking for a daily drive, fishing/camping and mild trail rig.
I was leaning towards a TJ or XJ. I decided against the TJ because of lack of cargo space and it being a two door. I don't see me, my girlfriend, my two teenage sisters and my dog plus camping/fishing gear fitting in a TJ comfortly.
The XJ wins by default. Which I don't mind since the XJ is cheaper to a comparable TJ. I found several two to three thousand less then my budget. Give me some leeway to do any fixes, repairs or maintence that needs to be done.
I plan to go for a '98/'99 XJ.
Thank you,
Scott
