2 pics buddy.....2 pics

:doh:Crap! I missed that somehow but then again it was 5:20am when i submitted mine!

I sent Bryan C a PM with a "real world" pic of the XJ doing what it does everyday.

Ok, so it looks like I'm the "little daily driver" this month LOL!

Keep in mind folks, this Jeep is used daily for work and no play. Go easy on me and don't laugh too hard at it.

Hey theres nothing wrong with a clean DD. I wish my DD was that clean. The paint on my hood and roof are fading... :(
 
Re: Official February 2011 ROTM submission thread

You got my vote! I love that thing!

It looks different now tho, doesnt it. Ya got rid of the Woody grille?

Thanks man. Actually, I had a late model front clip on it, and got rid of that for the waggy clip. I like it and it's different. Basically, every time I hear the wife say "thats going to look even uglier!", i do it just to piss her off. :D

That rig looks great, man. Nothing wrong with a stock XJ, especially when they are as nice looking as yours.
