Default New guy from Chicagoland/St. Louis

Hey guys, My names David and I'm from Plainfield IL but I go to school in St. Louis area. Little background on me, I'm a storm chaser and a photography hobbiest. I used to drive a 2001 Saturn L200 and beat the **** out of it but one day some lady texting and driving plowed into the back of me doing about 45mph. I had just put new tires, struts, sway bar end links, rebuilt motor and brakes so needles to say I was livid.

So now starts my new journey, with what insurance paid out I got a 2000 Jeep Cherokee sport 4x4. It's got 138k on the clock but it seems to be doing just fine. has almost no rust which I was shocked about. It could use a little TLC but that will come once winter is gone. Only plans for it are 1.5" lift, better tires/rims, front/rear bumpers and some lights. Now on to the best part, the pics!



If you wanna see some of my photography, check out-

Thanks!

Yea, I dont have any of the signs, nor did I see anything visually, and the engine seems to keep tempt pretty good. Thanks! I have a SLIGHT misfire but that'll be fixed later this week.
