So the Mrs. 1st new car was a 1999 White TJ Sport. It was the sole reason for Jeep’s lousy Reliability scores of new cars. But, I digress. Except… She traded it for a Chevy Sonic. ugh… Hot hatch backs are a lot of fun!
Long story short ( too late). I loved my Jeep. Was her quote of choice, when she saw a wrangler. So I got her one. Happy Birthday Baby!
Cept TJ has had a hard life. TJ done Broke Jeep, poor guy
Upgrade goal “less then a new Jeep” she says. “No problem” I say back .
Here is my upgrade plan. Scheduled to start 1st week of March.
Thoughts on parts, or major screwups appreciated. Adding more detail daily. Adding Pics From other device… standby, please.
