Nice lookin' Jeep! Congratulations!

It does seem like everyone is getting rid of their trucks for something else. Hell, I did. I loved my Ranger and she was a good truck, but I got more truck for the same money by going elsewhere.

Good luck with the new ride!

No hard top $3,000 option and a pita to take off wasn't worth it to me.

Yea i miss the little guy too. Lots of fun in it, moved all my stuff cross-country in it...had a lot of fun. Just wish it was 4x4, but then again the lift/aftermarket options for the Ranger just isn't there. With the JK, i have about a dozen lifts to choose from, mild to wild! Let alone all the other little things i can add. So far I'm very happy with the Jeep, but it's sad seeing my Ranger on the lot when idrive past it after work...its still "my Ranger"

haha, thanks. Well thats a good thing. I LOVE the way the Ranger looked. I was extremely happy with it. Like i mention the 2 driven wheels short, and the things left i could reasonably do to it, wasnt there.

I have my 'Cuda if i dont wanna "blend in". So thats no concern. And yes, I can do a ground mod for the lockers. Just haven't figured where I want the switches, and how discrete I can do it...It'll come to me lol Whole day i didn't really "need" the lockers unless I wanted to crawl on something..which you should be in 4lo anyway

The jeep will get a treatment like my Ranger did. In time. It'll be "my" Jeep
