    yea i like it a lot. i dont think i would get a winch right away but get a piece of diamond plate and cut it to the size of the space for the winch then bedline it or have it powder coated.

    well im back to thinking about a cherokee again. i want the better mpg that the ranger dosent offer. also they are easier to find at low prices. also i would like the more interior room for the long trips up to michigan and ive heard they are tanks in the snow. i found this one that i like a lot once the guy gets the title. http://hartford.craigslist.org/cto/3438273147.html

    i found my new favorite. its a lifted cherokee with custom front and back bumpers and the guy wants to trade for a ranger. it basically has all the work i would want to do to one. but im not sure about that back bumper i dont know if i could handle that much of my view being blocked when im backing out.

    Emilie's Wrangler has the same Issue with the spare overtaking the rear window, she learned to use her side mirrors really quickly ;)

    yea itll be hard going from a ranger to this. i would possibly throw the spare on the roof and take off the swing. i would have to install back-up lights to make it easier to see at night.

    I keep telling Emilie to move her spare to the roof as well but she gives "It's a jeep, its made to be driven with the roof off..." Eh, if I had a jeep i'd never remove the roof and keep it offroad only. I have the miata for the roof down experience. But yeah man I like that Cherokee. It's be sweet to get a J-10 :)

    this jeep is really nice. i love the color of it. i think that would look awesome with a tan/ black theme. i would switch out the wheels when i got my bigger tires and put grand cherokee seats in for the long car rides.

    alright this thread needs moved or joined. You been talking about possible jeeps since I had my Ranger if not longer. You havent got one yet. This thread has no point at all at this point in time.

    bingo!!!!! nothing newer. plus older means more aftermarket following and junkyard parts

    the point of the thread is to get fellow members opinion on jeeps i should get. im looking at jeeps now and i am getting close to being ready to buy one. why does it matter how long ive been looking?

    i want one thats 97-01. parts wise they havent really changed since they started making the cherokees. so most of the aftermarket parts are the same between the years. they mainly just did a face lift and made the interior a little nicer. which is why i want a 97+ the more updated interior will be better for the long car rides.

    I don't think it'll be much worse than my truck. It'll be worth it to me though I love jeeps. I've always wanted one ever since my brother for a wrangler. I've always been a jeep guy.
