I love my Jeep. We got it when I was 7 months pregnant with Dude. It’s taken the fam back to MN countless times - 1800 miles roundtrip, not counting the driving we do while we’re there. It’s got huge sentimental value to me. I drive the Highlander when Hubby takes the Jeep to the airport when he goes flying, but if the Jeep is here, I choose to drive it. In April, it turned over to quite a few miles . . .

No, Officer. I was not driving 35 mph down the road while taking this blurry picture of my odometer…
I keep telling Dude that I’m going to give him the Jeep when he turns 16 on August 1, 2016. I kid. He would love to get the Jeep. He loves it as much as I do “because it feels like an actual car you should drive into the mountains or go camping with.”
It’s now 2 1/2 months after this photo was taken, and I’ve only put 1,000 miles on the Jeep. Maybe I’m not driving it just because I don’t want it to “go away.” Or maybe I’m not driving it because there are always extra kids in my vehicle, so I need that 3rd seat of the Highlaner. Who knows, but at this rate, Dude might actually get the Jeep when he turns 16!!!
I’m back! I’ve been out of touch with my regular haunts over the past couple of months - but I’m back!
35 mph huh??
HOW ABOUT 65 MPH?
Grandpa is pushing me to buy a different car. I drove through the dealer’s lot and I saw a shiny red Jeep. It is $18,000. The dealer was closed so we didn’t check it out, but the window is not slanted as it is not the latest model, which is exactly what I need.
My car has about 45000 miles on it.
How does it handle on snow and ice?
