Graduation present, TJ

[Tomandian]

Well, after fighting a cooling issue, that ended buy ripping off an angry bird grill, we gave my son his grad present. Completely surprised him! 2000 TJ 2.5, smittybilt soft top. Had a tub liner sprayed in after buying as well as a new radiator, thermostat, and a good cleaning. Our boy earned it. Go Irish! He’s headed to ND this fall.

Awesome! and good luck to him at ND

 

[Squatch]

Congratulations to you both! As a dad, I know it can be as much work to get the kids through school as it is for them.

Awesome graduation gift, by the way!

Proves my theory, you can't be cool with an angry bird grill.

First , congratulations on having a good kid, I know from personal experience what that means.

Second , a TJ is a great college vehicle ...good choice.

I know he loves you for it.

Lastly, that barn behind him is about awesome. I bet that gets some comments.

Welcome to the forum, you won't find a better resource to keep his TJ going.

@Squatch is resource director for 2.5 owners west of Missouri, your son will need to report to him quarterly, and turn in mileage, fuel economy and grades ,etc. He will keep him straight and probably be the reason he graduates with no felonies and good credit.

I think he’s closer to you than he is to squatch, Andy

I agree with the barn bit. Let’s see some more pics of that barn

Resource Director for the 2.5 owners? I'm not qualified. That was my grade point average in high school!!!

I can't , I'm covered up, Chris assigned me to Rubicon's with 33" and smaller tires through Labor Day, and he may extend that due to Covid 19.

Awesome, gents. I’ll throw some pics of the barns when time permits. Too damn busy this weekend for anything! I guess I did snap a pic of the pumpkin patch
