Welcome aboard!! Yeah, it's a great bunch here (except for that dude from Utah that photochops his Hotwheels cars into rocks in his backyard to pass them off as a real rig....he actually drives a Yugo with a fart-can muffler and 6 foot wing on the back.)
I jest a lot about the different Jeeps here, but truly they are all very capable right out of the box. I drive a YJ and love it, and wouldn't trade it for anything. If perchance, I did get a deal on a TJ, I suppose I'd take it, too.....enjoy the site, and keep on Jeepin'!
BTW, bummer about your 86. Just glad you weren't hurt too badly. The dude that hit it should be drawn and quartered.....
