Default Newb in ATL

VERY NEW! Just bought a '94 GCLaredo for my daughter as her first car, after getting rid of the Civic 5sp, which she was having a great deal of problems learning how to drive. I have never owned American, never owned something with an A/T. Please convince me I made the right decision.
It has 204K, new trans 50k ago. It is a beautiful car, clean and smells good, but has some issues that need attention immediately, which I knew it would, being 15 yrs old and 204k on it. Paid 2300 for it. I will address these issues in the more appropriate thread.
Since I am a newb, and all my tools are metric, I think I will learn alot here.
Looking forward to it.
Thanks!

Drew in Atlanta

Hey Drew, Welcome to CF from Dan in Tenn..
The ZJ as its known is a very safe truck for your daughter, and they're usually very dependable. Specially w/ the 4.0L straight six, which give great service if properly maintained. Any questions, just ask away in the proper category and there's plenty of knowledgeable Jeepers on to help.
