    Yep, that's the one! I mean a TJ with the only difference being a more modern engine and transmission. Something that already exists but can be repackaged for the TJ in regards to engine and drivetrain.

    You know what? I thought about that until I realized that the one I want is 28k not including taxes and fees. I can get a TJ for cheaper than that :LOL: I do like the diesel though.

    What they ought to do is just reproduce the TJ. Make them bare bones and make them "recreational vehicles", nothing more. Sure, the market is much smaller, but it would bring Jeep back to what I've always though of Jeeps as being: simple, utilitarian vehicles.

    The meat gazers corner (a place to show off yer meat)

    It was a little tougher than I wanted but I think that’s because I should have rested it at room temp as oppose to in my Yeti. Still really good though. It didn’t last long!

    Just wait until it's all "subscription" model based like BMW and many of the other big luxury names want to do.

    I have to admit that I loved the adaptive cruise control on our Subaru Outback. It wasn’t perfect but it was darn close. It made the highway trips very enjoyable.

    No worries, it’s hard not to get political. Everything is political these days and there’s hardly any avoiding it.

    That sounds about right. We will all be paying for it.

    I get a sneaky suspicion that we are going to see a big downturn in car sales in the coming months / years.

    Yep, I turn it on the moment I leave the driveway. I hate leather too, it’s a terrible choice for seats IMHO.

    Advice; do I fix or sell?

    If the frame is not that great and the transmission is in need of a rebuild, I'd probably just sell it for parts. Even if you fix the transmission, the frame will be a huge red flag to any buyer who has educated themselves on what to look for when buying a used Jeep.

    Ahh yes, cruise control. One of the greatest modern inventions that not nearly enough people take advantage of! I use it religiously.

    Thanks, but no thanks. My kids will just destroy it anyways.

    All I need is seats, a stereo, an engine, and some HVAC.

    If I'm being honest, I'm not sure there is a car out there (with the exception of high performance vehicles, classics, collectors, and specialty vehicles) that is worth 50k. Well, not to me at least. New minivans are now over 50k for a well-optioned model. I had a hard enough time justifying...

    You mean you don't need 360 degrees of cameras and massaging seats? :LOL:
