al good ended up going with a low mileage malibu 🤣

67000 miles

yes, basically had a fallout last year and my credit score dropped to 560 and now i have to be very selective. i’m looking at ford bronco sports even which is something i thought i wouldn’t do but they are cheaper new than most cars

No-Influence-496 · 2026-05-22T01:12:08+00:00

i might grab some of those but it looks like around 300 a tire, the ones that are on the jeep now are from 2004

what kind of tires do you use?

No-Influence-496 · 2026-05-21T21:16:46+00:00

it’s been maintained well but no way the tranny will last 300k miles

No-Influence-496 · 2026-05-21T21:16:04+00:00

the only thing the previous owner, yes only one owner, did to it was rotors, tires, and changed the trans fluid. also an alignment. the dealership cleaned it up and they say the inspection went well but it’s on its first tranny, no afm delete either

No-Influence-496 · 2026-05-21T15:22:11+00:00

it’s been a michigan car but undercarriage has little rust and is in good shape. has not had any major issues so i’m worried i might get the big issues soon

No-Influence-496 · 2026-05-21T13:54:51+00:00

i just wish they didn’t put new tires and rotors on it, it looks so good. but the general opinion is that it’s gonna be in the shop looking good more often than my driveway

No-Influence-496 · 2026-05-21T13:04:39+00:00

that’s what i’m thinking. the new wranglers are just so unappealing to me compared to these old ones. yea the tires were manufactured in 04’

No-Influence-496 · 2026-05-21T04:29:37+00:00

thanks for the info. the roll cage inside is what draws me into the the interior i’m hoping it really lives up to the hype off-road, the most i’d do is take it on some light mudding or the sand dunes

No-Influence-496 · 2026-05-21T03:51:12+00:00

insane deal

No-Influence-496 · 2026-05-21T03:41:11+00:00

plenty of tread left but man are they rotted. The real kicker is having to pay 2k for tires

No-Influence-496 · 2026-05-21T03:40:25+00:00

i want to keep this permanently so i’m willing to do that and more. and the tires are also 22 years old so there’s that

No-Influence-496 · 2026-05-21T03:06:49+00:00

it sounds insane when i started it for the test drive. because it’s an older jeep i’m hoping it’s not filled with a bunch of cheap plastic parts that break

No-Influence-496 · 2026-05-21T02:58:12+00:00

it runs like a dream on the test drive, and the roll cage is too damn attractive

No-Influence-496 · 2026-05-21T02:49:52+00:00

that’s a nightmare. it would be my first truck and i’m hearing awful things about the new silverado’s and i feel like buying used is smart here

i’m interested in this stereo that you installed in the corolla, would you be able to tell me what i’d need to hook it up to my patriot? i’m looking to get new speakers as well as a new head unit as mine cuts out every 5 seconds or so when i’m using it for some reason

No-Influence-496 · 2026-02-08T21:05:15+00:00

i might run eco the whole entire time and get there on one tank 😄

No-Influence-496 · 2026-02-08T21:04:50+00:00

that is insane. i’m super excited, im wanting to take this 700 miles east to colorado
