The Damn Jeep
That's its' name, The Damn Jeep. An 05 Wrangler Unlimted, or LJ for short. AKA, Long Jeep. My wife wants to run errands in it, she says, "Let's take the Damn Jeep." I have to drive because she never learned to drive stick and refuses to. When I have to work on it, it's 'The Damn Jeep'. It really earned the moniker this summer.
It needs new front axle U-joints. Again. Replaced the rear main seal. Replaced valve cover gasket. Replaced coil pack. Cats failed. AND, after I did the above, the oil pan started leaking. As Jeeps and rust go together, I guess it was inevitable. In a positive light, I guess it's good for another 16 years and 106,000 miles. And, there is quite the Jeep community in my neighborhood. Everyone knows who owns the black LJ.
