Intermittent Brake Failure

Thank for the feedback Rey! the cavoite is I'd have to sell my TJ or hide it so we have less than three personal vehicles on the property...

I like option 4 Frank! As long as you can get the brakes squared away.

X2 but why do you need to sell TJ? What’s wrong with 3 vehicles? I hate only having 2 at the moment!

I'd be interested in buying the tj

Why? Is this a personal decision or some sort of ordnance? Do you really want to wheel a 4-door?

Well it's going to be option 1 - trade the JK in.  She called with the VIN and they offered her $17K for the trade in of the 10 year old JK.  If the warranty is transferable they'll give her $18K.  With that value - she can afford to buy the new vehicle out right, so no car payments...

So is it town code where you're at to not have more than 3 personal vehicles on the property?

Frank, sounds like a solid plan.  Time to lower the TJ! :wink:

In the boondocks? Doubt it!

Ever read your town codes and see what you may be in violation of?

Here are some of Wethersfield’s. They don’t seem to enforce much though.  Except that night time parking restriction.  I’ve seen neighbors ticketed for it.

I see lots of inoperable vehicles around town that haven’t moved for years and parking off the official parking surfaces.  Fine with me that they leave it alone. 

One of the reasons I made sure we didn’t buy in a planned community or HOA was so that I could do what I wanted with my vehicles more or less.

There's no code - just the wife's rule.  No spare vehicles.  I have a company card in the driveway too.

She put a down payment on the Jeep today.

Ran the VIN to get a build sheet - this thing is loaded!  Heated seats, skid plates, Falken Wildpeak A/T3W tires...

I do love those Falcon Wildpeaks. I had them on the chevy, and we bought a set for Emily’s XJ last year. They are a great year round tire.

  They are standard on the Traihawk versions of the Cherokee, Compass, and the Rubicon version of the Gladiator truck.

My YJ on 35's had 4.56 gears, my friend's 2003 Rubicon had 4:11 on 31" tires
