Looking at TJ's for a weekend toy/teen's HS car. Not quite a Pavement Princess, as its going to see light off roading, mainly around friends deer lease and family land, but most days it will be driving the 5 miles are around my house with the kid behind the wheel.
Budgeting $6K, but know anything at that price/age will need more money, if not immediately, soon.
Taking a second look at a rust free 4cyl/5sp tonight, no fluid leaks, but has a check engine light and weak AC. Hooking it up to my OBD2 scanner to see what's up with the check engine and let the kid look it over since 90% of the drive time will be there till college. If not this one, we will find another, have all summer to look.
Anyhow, I'll be doing the wrenching, so look forward to getting to know the forum.
