I ran out of time today to take pics - I'm going to run it through the wash tomorrow and vacuum it tomorrow then get some pics up.

I'd like to trade for a Cherokee XJ. I may be able to trade + some cash depending on what you have. Not interested in selling it outright, right now. I'm looking for an HO 6 cyl, AW4, 4 door, 4wd; A/C, PL, PW with a clean body. I'd prefer lower mileage, of course, but not totally necessary if it's in good shape. I'm more interested in getting an XJ with a good exterior and no rust. I'm more able to do mechanical work than body work.

I've had this truck for a few years and now I'm looking to get back into an XJ. My truck isn't the prettiest but it runs pretty good; however it does need some maintenance. I did drive it from TN to AZ over last winter with a load in the bed and cruised along the interstate with no issues. I'd rather put money into an XJ than into my MJ, so it's gotta go. Kraker and Tuffnutz have seen it in person, so they might have their own opinion of it :D

Someone stole the radio out of the truck last night so it no longer has a radio. It wasn't anything special, but still typical of my kind of luck. No broken windows or pry marks on the doors - I left the doors unlocked last night. Good thing, because we found their 'breaking in' implement next to the truck.
 
how much do you want for it
 
When I bought it, I already had a 4WD XJ. This was less of a toy and more of a "I own a house so a truck is useful" kind of thing.

Shoot me a PM.
 
Well, I'll sell you mine for $1,999! It's under your $2k limit :D

I'm off this weekend if you are interested in taking a look at mine.
