Jeep trade

[j3ff3ry_j33p]

I know, Chuck. I can trade but I can't touch savings for this . Wife's rule of permission. So, these are all tempting but I feel I will have good options for purchasing rig & trailer for what I can sell her for .

she passed the "test repairs ride" at GATRFest, plus drive home she tracked straight down freeway. 

the trade/fr sale ad is coming in next few days .

Sometimes you just have to do it and then ask for forgiveness lol

I can say with confidence if she says, "do whatever you want", she does not mean do whatever you want.

I thought you could do whatever you want, but that doesn't mean there aren't consequences.

you all sound like you really mean these things from experience.

it's cool of y'all to provide these invaluable 'lessons learned' for me.

My key takeaways being ;
' Don't trust her for sh**..."
and
 " just blame my offroad club mates for anything related to what could be perceived as a bad idea by me.."

" there's probably not consequences as long as she says it's cool. "





I think I gots it .

There will always be consequences regardless of whether or not she says its cool or ok.

I get sarcastic when nervous, but, all  jokes aside, I hear whats being said.

Wife has acknowledged/said it in front of the kids ( witnesses) if that counts.

"..., it is your Jeep...the RAM is mine.Do not touch it except to tow your whatever. "
then , she finished by saying I'd have to :
1]sell the JKU first
2]If I sell ,instead of trade it, I gotta deposit at least $1k into each kid's college funds or our savings from the $ it sold for
3]then I can buy whatever I can get

 
 Plus, she actually recommended this... after I showed her my spreadsheet w/
sums of prices for the JKU housings, wheels, tires & (ultimately) power-plant upgrades ( the Motech price list will scare anyone ), all that and then a cage, too, in B&W.

My wife would kill me if she knew the prices of Jeep parts

It's their memory and throwing it up years later that gets old.

Let me share a couple of my wife's best lines years ago

When I completely rebuilt mine..... it was
"what else can you do to make it look stupid"

After I first bought it....modified the stock bumper and
welded on a stinger bar.... she called it the "goat killer"

Whoa ..that 1st one was harsh heh


I'm sure to hear more than I am being led-to believe.

If I can get into a rig that I can learn more with & improve further/gain more crawling skill with , I will gladly deal with her insults...

Here's a question;

Jay gave me some valuable hindsight perspective the other day & I meant to ask this ;

for those who have traded or sold to move from a JKU to another Jeep what parts did you include in whatever deal you made for the 4 door which afterwards you kicked yourself for including because you'd have made a lil more $ on the return if you'd sold the part separately?
