    My wife has been after me to get her a Jeep for several years. I'm taking an '06 to the garage in a couple hours to have my mechanic go over it but it looks good, just a little concerned she's paying too much. IMG_1961.jpgIMG_1964.jpg

    New top, New tires and wheels, all new suspension bushings, New front Bumper and Smitty Bilt 9500lb winch, New Fender Flares, Big Jack, 160K miles.

    Any input on what something like this is worth.

    Jeep prices are all over the place. I guess what is important is that you are happy with your purchase. Is that a 4 or 6 cyl (this would make a big difference to me on how much I'd be willing to pay for it). Beautiful Jeep though.
