mjeff87 Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 Been car shopping all morning, and came across an 01 TJ for the right money. 2.5L/AX5/30-35/231, with a set of decent 31's on aluminum outlaws, A/C and 80K on it. Dealership is dead on the KBB price, too (although they started $1600 higher :brows: ) Gonna take the missus down to show her when she gets home from work today. Wasn't planning on buying anything near this expensive, becuase I haven't had a car note since 1999 and I kinda like it that way. But, it keeps calling my name.....

feerocknok Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 If KBB is based off averages, some people pay more than it and some less. Get it for less! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjeff87 Posted December 4, 2007 Author Share Posted December 4, 2007 Pics to follow tonight, or as soon as I can get outta work here this afternoon and go pick it up.... Yeah, the PP tax is a load, but I'm not complaining too much about it coming here from PA. VA only has 4% sales tax (none on food unless it's takeout), state tax isn't too bad, and the PP tax is at 70% relief from what it should be thanks to a former governor. Actually, I've never paid PP tax on any of my junk becuase we get 100% relief on it for vehicles over 100K and a certain amount of years old, but I'll have to pay something now on the TJ. It also applies to boats, motorcycles, trailers, etc. but I don't have any of that fancy stuff :D I'm glad to pay the few taxes we have (the roads are nice here for the most part), compared to PA. You name it, PA has a tax for it.... Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkgibbs27 Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 washington has an 8% sales tax, i don't know about the state tax. i don't even see how it's possible to tax someone on personal property, that sounds about as ridiculous as someone putting a tax on walking, i have never heard of it of the pp tax. i would hate to live in PA then.

WahooSteeler Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 x2 on the ridiculous amount of taxes in pa. talk about an overgoverned state. actually, commonwealth just like VA. i moved back to va last year after 4 years in pittsburgh. i just paid my first pp tax on my car since being back, and it was a slap in the face reminder of how much i used to hate paying that bill. but then i reminded myself that $500 is about what i paid PER MONTH in property tax on my house in PA. Most of it goes to schools, which are some of the best in the country, but a lot of good that did me. my kids were 5 and 1 when I left so I never got any "return on my investment". congrats on the new ride. i lived in richmond twice, which dealer did you get it from?

mjeff87 Posted December 4, 2007 Author Share Posted December 4, 2007 I was gonna ask you where the "steeler" came from in your screen name....now I know :cheers: (although we're gonna get annihilated this Sunday by NE, I think :cry: ). I actually got it from a Kia dealership, not Jeep. Went looking for a Kia Sportage, and ended up with a TJ off their used lot :chillin: Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WahooSteeler Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 Hey, if the Ravens had them on the ropes, we've got a great shot at it if we keep it close early. And keep Willie from dropping the damn ball! Screen name comes from my two favorite teams: UVa and Pittsburgh Does Kia have a west end dealer now or did you get it from the one on Midlo Tpke? I lived in the west end both times I was there but worked on southside at various times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
