This is actually my other Jeep - BIG RED, and she's looking to get a little bigger with 35's here in a few weeks. Some have got to see her in person - Namely Sal... Got to see her stretch her legs on some obstacles. I'm in the process of reorganizing my photobucket albums so I will provide a link to that album so that I don't have to soak up all kinds of bandwidth with 100+ pictures, and vids.

I'm actually trying to get rid of her for a stock khaki/gold/beige (whatever color Jeep called it then) ZJ... 5.2 or 5.9 as long as it's a V8 I don't care, lol. Tried to sell it to Sal, but he said it was too many axles for him! :p

(just messing with ya Sal!)

Here are just a couple pics of her - From the recent trip to Uwharrie, with Sal. Pics might be familiar to those who visit that other place, or are friends with me on Facebook.

Every time i see your pictures it makes me sad that I sold me 2000 XJ. I had some sweet plans for that rig, and it was in MINT condition.

I've had this one for a while too, and I've been on the fence on whether or not to sell it. I could flip this bad girl in 5 days easily for what I want to sell her for... But every time I convince myself to do it, I think about it and stop I stop. Not going to lie - I get a little emotional... I just Have to get a ZJ... The only way I can really sell Big Red, is if I sell her to someone I pretty much personally know, someone that'll take care of her. Take her out on trail runs, turn that engine once in a while and give her a good rev. You know, just pay some attention to her. I can also keep an eye on her, or help the buyer out with the her for service or maintenance and mods.... I just wanna be there, lol. I dunno... the XJ is definitely a 'Daddy's little girl'.

I sold my XJ to pay for a new roof on the house... it was a tough decision but we really needed a roof, and the XJ was the 3rd vehicle not being used much at all

I'm sure it was a necessary evil.

F it don't sell it. Those Grands are a dime a dozen. Piked up one from New York that had an ARB bumper, Warn Winch, 2 inch lift, and a detroit in the rear for $3,000.00 with shipping to missouri. You have that in upgrades alone, I love Ebay, and that was a deal.

So are the XJ's, lol - But I like the body style of the ZJ a little more.

I love the look of the XJs, that is why i got the XK. If i lived further north where there are trails i would get one in a heart beat. Hell, i almost baught my buddies XJ (we've discussed lifts about it) just so i can have one, but my girl talked some sense into me. Lol....

To be real, if you were closer to the west coast I would pick it up to make as a dedicated trail rig so I can stop killing my XK.
