I like the sounds of this! I could use a front bumper.

What did you get and from where?

and when can we borrow it?

its a pro tools 105hd. came with a 1.5 die. and a home made stand. will get a degree wheel when i save up the $$$$$
ordered a 1.75- 6" rad-220* die, so cages, bumpers, and rock rails will be bad-@$$. die will show up at work at end of the week. kinda sucks that i'm taking vacation days thurs-friday. guess i'll show up if it comes in then leave, hahaha

 

[Lowrange2]

Those look nice. Seems like the JD2 is a little bit cheaper in the long run. I'll come borrow it when you're done, don't worry.

Officially retired the Jeep from DD status today with the purchase of this:

It's just a kid too...

 

[Lowrange2]

They didn't even give you a full tank of GAS!

 

[userbmx1315]

full tank of gas would have made the value of the car double. seen gas prices lately? hahaha

 

[Lowrange2]

lol, Yeah, it's only $4.25 right now! Pocket change!

 

[userbmx1315]

dang, its that high down there? its like 3.80-something i think. havent bought it in 2 months.

 

[UNCC_99XJ]

Meh....I stopped and filled it up from that point tonight. 10.5 gallons to bring it back to full. Got out of the gas station for under $40!

Haha...I learned to drive on manuals. Old man's never owned an auto in his life (and never will), and my mom's 03 Jeep is her first automatic she's ever owned in her life. I figured I drive my Jeep like a manual enough that I needed to just get a manual lol.

Man you described my drive home from work tonight too...about 80 degrees, windows down, sunroof open, radio up!

It's sad that if you price out a new car, a manual box is more expensive than an automatic box.
