which would u keep? First world choices….

[drsmile]

So I have too many in the stable. Up to 5 with only 3 drivers, and boss says it’s getting out of hand….

04 WJ rwd Limited. Sunroof, Apple CarPlay, backup camera, leather, seat warmers, 4.7 v8 with 123k. Literally the automotive fairy tale- bought this from first owner, 85yo lady that bought new and kept in garage. Pristine and perfect. 6k/ yr on avg.

95 XJ 4x4 with the 4.0HO. This was a buddy’s that passed on. I’ve spent the last 4 mos fixing it up. 2” Rusty’s lift, tune up, new hd rear leafs, steamed and shampooed interior (appears new), new headliner, single din BT radio for phone support, 2k paint job just to make it look presentable bc clear coat and some of base was gone. 160k or 5500/yr. Needs new tires as the old are like 11yo and dried out.

WJ has more power and is better built IMO, rides better. The XJ is just cool and has sentimental value but rides like an old Jeep.

No question the XJ is easier to work on but the WJ is pretty easy as well.

If you could only keep one, which would it be? Why?

Hmmm.....

That is a tough decision. Got to go with the 4x4 though, just need to add carplay. That made a big difference in my 06 Land Rover LR3.

Same situation, 5 cars, 3 drivers, usually only 2 drivers.

Polyurethane body mounts and high quality shocks with new tires will change that ride for the better.

95 XJ. Because it's a 4x4, it has the straight 6 HO is very clean for a 95'

If I already had 3 that were daily drivers........ I would keep the XJ .

 

[BlackJackAce]

Keep the WJ and sell me the XJ at a ridiculously low price.

 

[calebp]

keep the xj /thread

Keep the XJ, especially with the sentiment factor.

If you want to use me as an example to tell the wife how good she has it and it could be worse, I have 9 cars for 2 drivers and 5 of them run....

Sounds about right

We have 9 cars for 4 drivers .
I have 3 cars .

My son has three cars , his soon to be wife has two cars , and my wife has one ,
And that’s not counting the wrecked one shoved in the woods in the backyard .
Or the two non runners at my hunting cabin .

Sell them all and get a Yota

You’re welcome

Heehee

Tough, I do like the older one though. I think it would be more solid as a keeper
