Does it ever end?
Everytime I finish one thing on my Jeep I find something else I need to do or want to do. The need to do's don't bother me but the want to do's are killing my wallet. I'm not to the point were I'll spend the money on the truck instead of my kids having braces but I might think about it.  |

I have to leak proof the engine, but I would rather get the grill and the bumpers. There will always be a point however when you got to set the boundaries. I haven't been in the FSJ game for very long, but I already know that I spend more on wants than needs.

IN it For the long haul...
I never want to sell my 91 GW. i intend on passing it down to one of my sons.
So everything I do to is for the family and me to enjoy as long as I can. 
First thing is making sure it is safe and reliable. Then I throw in the perks..
I got it bad i know.

My son is 6 and he can't wait to get the truck. My daughter hates it when I pick her up from school in it and my wife just rolls her eyes.

If it don't leak, it's 'cause it don't run, and even then the tend to seep or maybe weep? |
