    We had enough equity in her FJ that we traded in that it made it affordable. That and being friends with the dealer helps.

    Have a lot of friends and family affected by this latest batch of flooding. Big thanks from me and mine for y'all lending a hand. If I am off this weekend I am most likely going down to fall in with the Cajun Navy to help people save livestock, find pets and gather belongings.

    But what if the Heep turns out to be, well, a heap and she becomes unhappy? Is that when you transition her to 4Runner?

    The one great thing about wranglers is they do hold their value extremely well! Only the Taco out performs it in that aspect.

    Yea she has always loved the T4R, and really fell in love with the new body style when it came out. Finally got in the right position to buy her a loaded one, and pulled the trigger :D

    My wifes wanting another SUV next since we cant afford the Jaguar she wants (Base price of $93,000 lol). It will most likely be a 4runner since they dont make the Xterra anymore (she had one and LOVED it).

    We're a little while out on major purchases. We bought her a new Fusion March of 15, bought our house in October of 15, then bought my Taco in June of 16. My bank account cries at night.
