Great XJ

I love TX, sure hated to move to PA.

Being a previous DISCO owner, I have used the cables. They are super off road, as they divide the limbs avoiding ripping off your rack/lights/gear overhead. But they are illegal on the road in many states.

IF you want a laugh read some of the land rover post oversees. Our governments worry about a pedestrian somehow getting cut from cables yet somehow thinking the 4000+ lb truck would not have killed them.

I hated to bring this up but do not want you to be staring in your review mirror at flashing lights.

Nice landy, and xj. That's the look and use I want. I just don't have a top tent, that would take up too much rack. The cops around here don't care much at all, it is a serious eye magnet, but being prior military gets me out of any tickets, knock on wood.

Very easy, I just open my door and lift it off.. just like the wranglers. I love riding with the doors off, I get a lot of looks and a lot of thumbs up, waves, and compliments.
Of course this pic is an old one from last year.. My Jeep has changed a lot since then, so I am sure it will get a lot more looks this summer lol
