March 9? Cool your birthday is one day after mine haha. For long trips hmm...kinda sucks because they don't have cruise control (well my YJ doesn't...the TJ's might). My YJ is the four cylinder and it gets real good gas mileage. Jeeps are cool because they really get noticed...driving around town you see a bunch of lowered civics and ricer cars...but my one of a kind lifted jeep sure turns a lot of heads hahah.[addsig]

Well YJ's do not have cruise control...I'm not really a TJ guy so I wouldn't know if the TJ's had cruise or not.[addsig]

I would say get a TJ or YJ, if you want a more modern Jeep, Nicer riding and all the Bells and whistles. Probably go with the Jeep TJ, if you want something a little older, a little rougher riding, a little less to get dirty when you go mudding topless. I would say go with a Jeep YJ. I love my YJ and wouldn't trade it for the world! Plus I like the square headlights. (Not To Many Around So I Hear). But best of luck with what ever you decided. Plus we are always here to help.

Ashley: Look for a TJ, a hardtop would make the roadtrips a bit quieter and when you want to go topless just get a couple of your guyfriends to come over and take it off for you. Good luck on getting the Jeep you want [addsig]

No problem...a picture is worth a thousand words.

This is a YJ (my YJ BTW)...they were made from 1987-1995 and have square headlights and a leaf spring suspension.

And this is a TJ...this one belongs to PAsmokeater. They have round headlights and a more "sporty" front grill as well as a coil suspension. They are the 1997-present Wrangler style.

have you ever driven in a jeep before?, if you havent maybe you should, a Jeep isnt any old car, it takes skills to become a Jeep driver (all the bouncin and noise and vibrating, it gets pretty rough) and are you ready to join the Jeeping community? - i bet you if you get a Jeep you will get plenty of Jeepers waving at you :lol: [addsig]

Hey Ashley! Welcome to the community...it sounds like the addiction seed has been planted, so that's good!! :evil: :lol: I have a 1998 TJ with some modifications, but I do take it on trips from time to time and it does just fine. Yes, it has cruise control, but I normally don't use it. I would spend the extra $$ and get one with a hardtop. A little more secure and a little less noisy at highway speeds...but, heck, that's part of the fun of a Jeep!! I have a hoist that is in my garage that I use to lift off the hardtop and it stays suspended from the ceiling joist. Taking off the top is easy (20 minute job) and I can do it alone...in fact I just took off the top this morning!! :-D Just keep your eyes open and look for one that suits you...you will know it when you see it!! Then make it yours...good luck, Patti
