Funny you mentioned that, I just looked in the Marketplace for the first time and saw that Jeep. For 90k+ miles it looks to be in fairly nice condition and has some additions that I like. I might inquire and see where it leads.

It’s really easy to mistakenly by a screwed up Jeep. Buy the newest unmolested copy you can afford. All too often they are modded by people who did not do it properly. Watch out for lift kits and oversized tires. If they were done cheaply or improperly you might end up spending thousands of dollars, as my friend did, undoing all the mistakes. Cheap lifts and wrong tires can mean messed up gearing and who knows what else. Just be smart and you’ll get something great. Enjoy!
