I never thought Id say this but I may be trading in the XJ and the YJ for a pickup. Im looking for used 2000-2003. I have no brand loyalty so lets hear the good, bad and ugly. What kind of problems have you pickup owners had with your particular trucks?
The uses I foresee for this truck are, mostly commuting, sometimes vacationing and road trips, occationally hauling building materials and seldom towing as much as 6000lbs. Because of the hauling and towing, Im thinking I definately need a fullsize truck but I think I can get by with just a 1/2ton and wont need a 3/4ton. Its just my wife and I so we hardly ever need more than two seats so Im not sold on getting an extra cab or four door. I would sooner have an 8' bed then the extra seating. I definately want 4X4. Im not locked into diesel or gas.
Ive had trucks before but its been a number of years since ive been in the market so I havent really kept up with them. Are there any engines, drivetrains, years, to avoid? Are there any must haves?
No doubt this will turn into a battle of the big three so have a ball, but remember, in the end, we all love our XJs.
