  • awesome jeep ad

    http://www.ksl.com/auto/listing/1156688

    1992 Jeep Cherokee (XJ)
    198k Miles
    4.0 L in-line 6
    4WD
    AUTOMATIC Transmission
    Crank Windows, cruise, ac, no tilt, delay wiper, no nonsense
    Optima red top battery
    Locked rear axle

    Here's the deal, kids:

    This is a Jeep Cherokee. This is not a luxury SUV, or a maintenance-free disposable import. It has solid front axles, wind noise, and character. It's a Jeep. It rides like a Jeep. It drives like a Jeep. All of these are GOOD things. It is not new, it is not pristine, it is used. This will be apparent in the pictures.

    THIS VEHICLE IS NOT FOR YOU If you do not own a toolbox, have never changed your own oil, and are scared of firearms
    THIS VEHICLE IS NOT FOR YOU. If you feel you are owed anything in the world & have a bullshit job where you fail to produce
    THIS VEHICLE IS NOT FOR YOU. If you own a bieber album, white oakleys, affliction t-shirts, or those candy-assed stitched-pocket jeans
    THIS VEHICLE IS NOT FOR YOU.If you consider the 2nd Amendment an anachronistic relic and have never owned a firearm


    If, however, you have BALLS OF STEEL and consider adverse weather an excuse to do stupid shit: THIS IS YOUR JEEP.

    Do you laugh at danger, and tempt fate?
    Have you ever uttered the words, "Hold my beer and watch this? Put your seat belt on......I wanna try something.....
    While bored at work do you pick targets at random and think, "I could hit that from here with the .22?
    Have any of your friends quit hanging out because you were too much fun?
    Do you have the number of a friend with cash memorized for bail?
    When you pass an abandoned flatbed farm truck along a fenceline do you consider taking on another project?
    Is your ol' lady really sick of the random piles of parts, greasy footprints, and empty beer bottles in the garage?
    -could you not care less?
    Do you own a service manual for every vehicle you ever owned?
    Do you still miss your first ride?
    Can you carry on a two hour conversation discussing tools, scars, and hi-lift jacks?
    Remember when tool companies had the balls to put half-naked beauty queens on their calendars?
    Do you consider the Prius an abominable affront to the Gods of displacement, torque, and All Mighty Internal Combustion?

    If you answered in the affirmative to the preceding: THIS IS YOUR JEEP.

    The motor uses a little oil. How much? I don't know, I'm not collecting statistical analysis points.
    I check the oil, I fill the oil, I drive. Not enough to bother me.
    It leaks a little oil. How much? Not enough for me to care. It has 198,000 miles, Poindexter!
    If you have a vehicle with 198k NOT leaking or burning oil, it's empty!
    Rear bumper has a big-ass crease in it. I dented it backing into a concrete pole. Sober.
    We drove away giggling, for the record. Haven't fixed it.
    The badass little 4.0L bullet-proof in-line six starts and runs like the proverbial champ.
    Tranny and 4WD operate perfectly
    Tires will need replaced in a couple thousand miles. I haven't upgraded because I had plans:
    Had planned a small lift, upgrade to more aggressive tires.

    GOT QUESTIONS:

    Why are you selling? I can't justify owning it anymore. I have to many jeeps , kiddos, work, travel, and beer have consumed my time and money. Someone else needs to appreciate the Jeep for what it is: awesome mechanical artistry.
    What's wrong with it? Small oil leaks. Side door cosmetic issues; "rust". And it's pissed it has been neglected and parked. It needs to be rescued.
    Does the 4WD work? Hell yes. Like a Dickensian Orphan.
    Will you sell me the [engine / tranny / rear door / axle / etc.]? No. This jeep is not for parts Buy the Jeep. Love the Jeep. Give the Jeep a home.
    Will you take [insert ridiculously stupid low number here]? No. If I wanted [ridiculously low number] I would have asked [ridiculously low number] Want a cheap car? Get your kid that lowered tuner piece of shit honda project down the road. I think I'm plenty cheap for this bad mofo. Because I bought it for a daily driver with the intention of turning it into a project. I haven't had the time to do so. So I am selling it.
    Can I put a 6" lift and giant tires on it? I don't give a shit. But be sure to use quality components and for God's sake - get it aligned after a lift!
    Would this make a good car for my daughter? Hell. Yes. Not only a good car, a learning experience. Introduction to vehicular maintenance. Additionally, there isn't really enough room in the back for that little bastard she's dating to try anything.
    Can you deliver? Within reason. I'd drive it a hundred miles or so. But really, you should come get it. Look it over. Etc.
    Will you take a check / cashier's check / Western Union Transfer / Nigerian Promissory Note? Would you take a ball pein hammer to the forehead? No. I'll take Cash. Period. Bring cash or don't show.
    Will you ship to? No. See above.
    No, really, all I have is [lowball dollar amount]? That's great, I don't give a shit, I want $1500 Why? Because I don't HAVE to sell this little beauty. Truth be known, I'd rather keep it. But if it's going to a good home - I will sell. Unless you're an asshole - then no sale.
    Why are you such a dick? Everything is relative; you should see my friends.
    Any other questions, feel free to text me and ask. 801-725-0112

        I saw that same write up on a kansas craigslist ad for a red xj a few months ago when I still lived in colorado. The other one had a lot more/other descriptions on it, i think it was flagged by the time i went back to copy it. either way, its still hilarious
