After wanting a Jeep since I was a kid, I finally bought my first one. It's a 1997 TJ.

Got lucky ( from what I can tell from reading ), in that it has no rust, and everything in it works, including lights and buzzers. I've only had it about 3 months but so far I am having a ball with it. Nothing off road yet, as I am still getting used to it, plus , as my Dad used to say " Working cuts into my free time".

I’m 15 minutes south of Huntsville-pm me if I can help you. They most all have a few bugs to work out.

welcome, was just in your neck of the woods over the holidays. My brother in law is in a toyota club, I tagged along on one of their wheeling trips through Iron Gap it was a good time.

How funny- we had just missed you guys. We found a great climb in the back.

This is me going up what you came down.

Small world right? I should have put the run up here to see if anyone else would join. we actually went the day after the big winter storm came through. came through Etsil Fork on the way in (super sketchy with the roads like they were), and made an out and back to the steps your probably talking about. I came up the right side of the climb in your photo. The snow made it pretty challenging. attempted the big climb at the steps and was denied, super slick.
