Jeep Grand Cherokee!

Why not keep it Ford and get a 4x4 Ranger or a full size Bronco?

A Bronco is too old and a classic. I would not want to take it into the woods. I'm thinking Jeep Wrangler with a top.

Yeah, the new Cherokee that I would want is about $45,000. An F-150 is really not convenient for me. And I was thinking the Sport Trac, but they stopped making them. I like the new Expedition, but not the older ones. The Escape is ok. I don't like the Flex. But I really like this Edge. Of course I would want it dressed to the 9's too.

That's a good looking Jeep Jim, but it needs more lift with those tires.

I've found several with a lift. Found one real cheap, but the tranny needs a rebuild.
