... When you are the only stock vehicle that has enogh ground clearance to avoid the rocks and a low enough roof to avoid the low branches on a trail. The s10 didnt have enough clearance and the trooper's roof was too high. The full sized blazer lost a mirror and a window... That was a fun summer job!!!

Cherokee= the best camping spots on the mountain, a little frontier tried to get to the site next to ours when my jeep was stock height, and he was scraping rocks the whole way till h gave up.

They all say it's because I'm young and immature. It couldn't have anything to do with the fact that it's paid for and I have pride in the work I do

I'm in the Army, and until recently, I was the youngest person in my office by a margin of 8 years. I was also the lowest ranking person. Logically, nothing I did was ever right, and every time we disagreed on a topic, it was because I'm young and immature.

ykydaxj when money spent on your jeep never seems a waste, and you always manage to scrape enough together for jeep stuff.

Same way at the fire dept for me. That was till i became training officer. Now all the people who talked down to me and told me i was to young to understand get put through the ringer when we're training. Lol. Besides, i went hard at it for 3 years and got every possible certification i could so now im more certified and higher ranking than most people there. Got more certs than our Chief! Lol. I give 'em hell when we train.

When you can't wait to file taxes, receive that refund check, drive down to 4wp (or online shop for a better deal) and purchase your lift!

Edit: well, maybe that's for all 4x4s... But I can't wait!
