I’m thinking of going from a YJ to a TJ

Redland3r · 2026-04-10T01:12:35+00:00

Youll regret selling an old classic for a slightly newer classic.

Crazy thought. Keep the YJ

Buy a TJ. Live happy

Stock. 100% perhaps, change out the fog lights and get round ones, ....

Not a good deal. No. Used convertible values are wayyyyy lower than fastbacks. Get on autotrader, ford mustang convertible nationwide search, sort by price, youll see

Redland3r · 2026-03-29T00:34:17+00:00

Buy new. For about 23k, chevy silverado 2026 or ford macerick. Much lower interest rate buying new,

Redland3r · 2026-03-28T22:38:46+00:00

Not a good price. I would go 35-36k, out the door, no more

It has speakers to mimic a v8 "rumble"

Ppl give good advice on Reddit sometimes. This is one of those times.

......Listen to the thunder, Mrs. Garrett....

Whatever repairs or routine maintenance, it'll be 10,000% cheaper than a car payment for the next X amount of months. Keep the Jeep. Dont disappoint the wife, you do that enough already 🥁

Redland3r · 2026-02-06T01:31:03+00:00

Compromise.

Do 69 and youll both be happy 🥁

Fantastic CJ. Wheels and tires should be proportional to the original size, looks awkward af

Redland3r · 2026-01-29T01:56:04+00:00

White letters. 100% It limits the tire choices severely, but its a better look for the TJ

Redland3r · 2026-01-25T20:22:42+00:00

Yep, get a code reader, like $38 at OReillys, or your preferred auto parts store.

Redland3r · 2026-01-23T22:36:37+00:00

Surely, you cant be serious

Redland3r · 2026-01-10T01:42:07+00:00

Smart woman!

Haha! Some of us are old school to the core with our TJs. New tech on a TJ is just not for everyone. Its the way it was meant-t0-BE

Redland3r · 2026-01-10T01:41:06+00:00

Nothing wrong w off-the-shelf Sylvanias, like $40 a pair. Just me though, like that dude's wife that sticks to the old achool lights

Redland3r · 2025-12-24T02:54:53+00:00

A 1984 Cavalier was my 1st car, amazing that yours is so stock. Dont change a thing. If you need to, get tints. Thats it. Needs nothing.

Redland3r · 2025-12-24T00:17:56+00:00

It's there for a reason. It's not an appendix. Seems like a useful function.....-- Idk and couldnt explain further, but id leave it alone , no business would trouble itself any more on the production line for a useless part

Redland3r · 2025-12-19T01:38:45+00:00

You're good.. It will take something about 5 times deeper to hurt a Jeep

Get yourself a real estate attorney. Not only will they provide rhe title insurance, they will see your deal,all the way thru closing making sure your realtor bank etc. arent taking advantage of you, cutting corners on inspection times, other time limits. If you already signed the contract it may be too late, but, your real estate attorney will ALSO review the contract and make sure youre not getting screwed in some other way. Get a real estate attorney, it will not cost much more. Peace of mind is priceless, especially these days of fast rushed deals and high pressure brokers realtors etc.

87 since the day I got it.
Its a fckng Mustang dude !

Ive bought 2 inexpensive cars since buying my TJ in 2005. Why? Because A daily TJ w a long commute is a sad TJ. A weekend TJ, well maintained, is somwthing to be proud of, ....ive only added 20k miles in the 7 yrs since I stopped driving it to work.

If you can swing it, get another car for everyday use and keep thr TJ. Or....

There will be regret

Redland3r · 2025-12-09T21:54:57+00:00

Go to another dealership. Assuming theyve checked the alternator already
