      So I'm gonna be getting a 2000 Jeep Cherokee this week. Has a new engine with less than 1000 miles on it, new radiator, new water pump, for $3500. Less than 1/3 of what I budgeted for a new car. Wondering how I can pimp this thing without looking like a 17 year old driving around town…

        shudder. Should have at least made the outside khaki and maybe the interior Burberry plaid. Though on a car that is also heinous.

        There was also a limited edition Gucci Fiat 500….. Barf. One Christmas in Peoria I saw a late 90s Stratus that someone had spray painted purple and then airbrushed on fake LV graphics. Classy!

            Bags, just rock it for what it is.  Other than getting tires and/or wheels, just keep it as stock as long as you can stand it.  You'll probably never see a dime of what you put into it if you sell it later on.  Trust me…

              The sensible response - take care of any rust/safety issues and bank the rest for maintenance, etc. Clint is spot on.

              Or spend the rest of the cash on a motorcycle.  🙂

                  Putting money into non classics is a waste, and a wast for classics sometimes even. Just rock it as is and beat it up. It is a jeep after all. If you travel a lot then throw some Yakima racks and shit on it cause its nice having the room inside to sleep or whatever when traveling. I have a jeep and I have drove it all around this country. As long as its a v6 and not v8, it will run like a monster. Be wary of the old v8 jeeps though because they often blow transmissions

                    1969 GMC 1500, 307 with a 4 speed.  Very little on this truck is original, or even there for that matter, so I'm gonna get to have a lot of fun with this one.  I've got it driving reliably around town for now.  Wiring, body work, suspension, bed outfit, paint… Should be done quickly, right?

                      my old man had a 72 k5 blazer when i was a kid
                      it got stolen and when he got it "back" it was basically a shell and a roller

                              This is what happened to mine a number of years ago. I was a jeep but until then, but still catch myself desiring one again  from time to time. :-\
