Im almost back in the game!! Bye bye Jeep!

The Jeep is on ebay this week! Friday I will be forced to get a new ride Im still undecided on 2nd gen or 3rd 4Runner. I was set on a 2nd...but all the engine trouble many of you are having as of late has turned me back to the 3rd. I want the suspension setup of the 2nd though. Im leaning towards a 96 or 97 unless I get a boat load of cash for the Jeep. Then I may look into a '99. But then I think about how much I can save and get a 2nd gen and buy my 2-Be a car too. GRRR!!

Anyway, if you or someone wants a Jeep in great shape:

There is a silver 2nd gen sitting near here for sale. As soon as I saw it, I thought of you. But I'm sure there are 1000+ 2nd gen between here and there. So if you get a new truck then your coming down to SE4RJ with Mike right.

HAHA...I have no idea what I am doing with my life. Im still waiting to hear back from law schools. Im in total limbo right now as I quit my job thinking I was a sure thing getting into school. But it's getting late, lease is up end of may, getting married in july, NO CLUE what state I am going to be living in...and now I dont have a car.

But yeah...Im super excited to get rid of the jeep!

I don't need a Jeep, but I hope to persuade you into a 96 or 97 rather than a 95 if cash allows. The 3.4 really is much better than the older V-6.

As far as life, I admire your risk taking. Nothing is guaranteed and it sounds like you are flying high with what you have, that is cool.

Thanks man...I wish my mom thought that way Once you're off the payroll...you cant get back on Haha...Im surviving though. Thank god for ebay...Ive unloaded so much crap on there as of late. Definitely helping me keep afloat...

I am leaning towards the 96 and 97...but it really depends on the deal. I have guy going to car auctions for me and we are finding out that 4Runners are like gold here in MO since they dont come through very often. Nevertheless, if one pops up and I cna get it for around wholesale...It'll be mine. Unfortunately I cannot wait too long now. I had to dump the jeep since the plates were up and I couldnt re-register it since it has MI plates and Im in MO...dont want to pay those taxes. Anyway, best deal wins!

Anyone looking to "trade-in" their 3rd gen?

This is the perfect time to go wheeling. God is giving you a sign here ... everything in life is changing .. but the one true path is still there .. you have to go wheeling .. everything else will fall into place.

Law school .. F__ it .. next year
Lease .... move in with a Friend
Married ..... shes waite this long, whats another few months going to do

is any of this getting to you ...

Hahaha! Yeah, Im sure her father will love to hear that I want to push everything back a few months costing quite a load of money.

If Forrest would ever get his POS running...he's teh one you should be nagging. He's just sitting in his room looking at motorcycles because he's dumped too much money trying to fix it himself and cant afford to pay someone now...LOL
