So my wife and I just moved here from Guam. I bought the bike and she's been driving my 99Cherokee w/ 6.5 inches of lift and 33" tires. It's a bit of a chore for her to get into, but she sure does look cute up in that big ol' thing.
I was feeling kinda bad for her. It's hard to park, and makes lots of loud tire noise on the road.
So.....in the interest of her comfort and a lower payment, we traded it in on a 02 Ford Focus ZX3.
It's a little on the small side, but it's cheap and she seems happy.
Sure do miss that Jeep though, that was a sure head-turner. I must have spent thousands on extras too.
Chalk one up to adulthood.

It's gotta handle better than that Jeep though... A ZX3 would be fun to go up GMR ;)

Yeah, I shouldn't stick that thing out there... I know one of these days I'm going to put it down, and that's gonna hurt... But it'll be a good story, right ;)

(who'll have an easier time than some others getting a knee down, since my legs are longer :p )
