Pete M Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 I'm about to buy my first totally sight unseen MJ. :ack: That's how bad the sickness has gotten. I'm 750 miles away and so I won't even be there as the money is transferred (jb's doesn't count since I was there for the delivery). Price was right, condition was right, location was right, timing was right. It'll be my first 2.5L and it's a 2wd 5spd with 150k miles. It's rust and accident free and I'm acquiring it from the original owner. I'm so geeked it's not even funny. :banana:
jpdocdave Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 nice find, the sad thing is i don't think there's a bottom to our addiction, so you can never say at least i've hit bottom. it just gets worse.
Pete M Posted June 17, 2009 Author Posted June 17, 2009 Yeah, I can only imagine how bad it'd be if I actually had a job or owned property. :dunno:
Wildman Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 :teehee: I'm even worst..........I bought my last 2 just from a couple of pictures on Craigslist :nuts: Last Monday.......seen the CL add in the morning, called the guy at 8:30, he called back about an hour later, and at 6pm, he delivered it to the shop :D Then I got to see what I bought :doh: But, it had some nice surprises, AC (that works) and Cruse :brows: I got to get a new hobby :headpop:
Geonovast Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 When I got my 4.0 I'd known about it for about 2 days, knew it was a little rough, and it was $750. I went out to where it was without a ride back if I didn't buy it. No pictures, never even talked to the owner, worked through a middle man. Granted, the middleman was JeepcoMJ, but still.
1990 Pioneer 4x4 Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 You are addicted! Sight unseen…? Hey I have a bunch of stuff I would like to sell you.
Sir Sam Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 The kingly "we". :D Pfff, I'm doing fine, I only own 5.
shawn Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 i'd never heard either of these even start , and i bought them. --$ 300. each.

Original owner - that's all good. :cheers:
Pete M Posted June 17, 2009 Author Posted June 17, 2009 Yup, down south. No more rustbuckets for me. :D
HOrnbrod Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 Yup, down south. No more rustbuckets for me. :D :thumbsup: Any plans for it yet?
Pete M Posted June 17, 2009 Author Posted June 17, 2009 Fix what needs fixin' and keep it as-is for now. :thumbsup:
HOrnbrod Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 Cool. But knowin you it won't remain "as-is" for too long. :cheers:
Pete M Posted June 17, 2009 Author Posted June 17, 2009 There's a chance this one might stay reasonably stock. But then again I do have those bucket seats sitting in the garage down there. And the empty MJ shell doesn't exactly need that 99 front clip at the moment... :brows:
HOrnbrod Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 Aye. The wheels be turnin' already Pete-man. :cheers:
Sir Sam Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 This one will make 5 for me. :cheers: Ya, clearly you don't have a problem if you only own 5 Jeeps.
vaquaro Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 There's probably a pill (like birth control ) to ensure you MJ family does'nt expand beyond your ability to support and feed it,but it does'nt seem to be readily availible to forum members ? " Papa Pete " has a nice ring to it ....Enjoy :thumbsup:

whowey Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 I came close to that a couple of times. But I couldn't pull the trigger completely sight unseen. But I only own three Jeeps right now. So I'm not completely addicted.. or at least I keep telling myself.
