My 2001 60th Anv Edition is mostly stock and I keep it very clean, inside and out. I actually get compliments from people who ride in it about how new it still looks. I don't have a problem with getting it dirty but I do like to get her nice and clean too. I plan on keeping her for a bit longer and feel like if I take care of my Jeep, she'll take care of me ... And has!

I keep my junk CLEAN all the time...I wash it every time after I go off road...i have had a couple of knuckleheads call my junk a mall crawler cuz it is clean and not dented and scratched i just laugh cuz dents dont make you a better driver...if anything I feel it is totaly opposite..I take care of all my stuff (see my albums and you'll understand )..also these things aint made no more so might as well take care of it instead of trying to kill it...

Cameron, I hear ya there brother. We've seen each others pics of our Jeeps. I actually Nano wax it BEFORE I go trail riding. Get it super dirty, come home wash it and Nano wax it again. It's like it never happened. I spent ALOT of money on my Jeep, and while I like to have fun and try some cool stuff on the trails, I'm not looking to kill everything I just put in to it. I know stuff breaks but that's the nature of the beast. But to do it deliberately doesn't make sense. Yeah, people think mine is a mall crawler too. I prove them wrong on the trail.

Thank you I love it! it's pretty much all stock, I've been making small changes, but pretty much just to make it truely my own and different from all the others in my area. This is Jeep Country around here, most of the people up here on the hill have a Jeep of some kind and a Subaru ( we get lots of snow ) Here's another one I really liked the angle of.
