Introduction
Ladies and Gentlemen, I?d like to introduce you to Babe, the Blue XJ. Here are a few of the vital stastics:
The History
I bought it in November of 2013 after my ?97 Honda Accord and I collided with a deer.
The collision only did enough damage to total the car, but not render it unusable. The crash did give me the push to find a replacement for the poor thing though. She needed the kind of love and attention that I didn?t have the time or equipment to give her, so I perused the interwebs looking for the perfect replacement that would fit my needs. To make a long story short, I ended up with Babe.
(Wasn't there mention of a lack of time, like, I don't know, 2 sentences ago?)
Ok, so no stock Jeep is perfect, but she only had 62,000 miles on her at the time of purchase. Fourteen months later, we?re at 82,000 miles, but that?s a different matter entirely.
