Mom is harassing me about what I want for Christmas. She wants to throw money at the Jeep. It's rough, but I think I'll live. Budget is around $150, what would you guys suggest?

Do you have any mods? When was the last time you did a tuneup? How old is the battery?

I never said I was innocent,,in all instances lol But if your are going to say I did something dont make it sound worst then it was.. I mean yeah I cut you off but at no time did I slam on the brakes and try to kill you.. Yes I had a Lady go into drama rant like that. The cop even said she was a little over reaching and I was let go with a warning not to **** off old lady by changing lanes to fast for her liking..






Back on TOPIC .

OP do you have upgraded battery cables?
