Our new rig...

A 1999 Jeep Wrangler TJ

So after visiting almost all of the auto dealerships around Las Vegas and Henderson one Saturday afternoon we were on our way back home and decided to fill-up our car with gas and luckily we saw a parking lot of a local high school that allows people on the weekends to sell their vehicles. Parked in the lot was a beautiful and well equipped for starting out off roading black 1999 Jeep Wrangler TJ. It was exactly what we were looking for within our budget...

We met the seller and as he was showing what all he had done to the Jeep we knew it was the one we had to have! We went home and cleaned up the garage to make a space for the new baby. We went after work on Friday to pick-up the vehicle and Xavi had never been happier before! The smile on his face was larger than life!

(Here we are with Gerby and our new Jeep!)

We spent the first weekend just looking at it and enjoying knowing that it was ours...we went on a couple of errand runs with it and it was nice to feel the wind in our hair.

Here are a couple of photos that the seller gave to us of all the various things he had done to the Jeep.

(The seller of the Jeep had purchased the Jeep in Florida a few years ago...this is a photo of when he picked-up the Jeep...)

(He did many things inside the Jeep, like audio system upgrades, lights, new carpet and seat covers along with lining the entire interior floor with stuff...see photo below...to help keep things cooler and warmer depending on the season...)
