Hope's New Sidekick

[sharon]

Been looking every where I've been this summer and finally found what I was looking for right here in Greenville, Tx. The dealership has been great to deal with, which is unusual. Paid about 3000 less than I thought it would be. The only problem has been getting the Blue Ox base plate for her, but the dealership has been working with me and feels so bad about me being stuck here, they're giving me quite a deal on it. Soooo, I'm here until next week, but I drove her today and I Love, Love, Love it! It has everything I wanted on it plus some things I didn't care about. Must haves were electric seats, heated seats and steering wheel controls. It basically has everything Jeep puts on the Liberty...sun roof, Nav system, Sirrus radio etc and my phone is already synced to the Nav system with voice control. It's a 2011 Liberty Jet. So far the only thing I don't like about it is the tires, it has those tires that look flat, so within a year those will be changed for regular tires.

Wooohooo, she's a purdy thing. Glad you found her and got a good deal. Can't wait to see her following Hope one day - hopefully soon.

She's a beauty! Is she gonna be JipJipII or do you have a new name yet?

Be careful with those tires. I've heard stories about them coming off the rim if you turn sharp & haven't slowed down enough.

Thanks Ladies! The dealers in SoCal weren't any help at all, nor the ones in AR. I would walk on the lot, tell them what I wanted and they would say, nope, don't have one. Didn't even try to find me one. My cousin and I stopped at this one on the way to the Audie Murphy museum, the salesman only had one on the lot and not what I wanted, so he went in and talked to the manager, I'm thinking, Oh Boy, here we go again, but he came out 10 min later and said this is what we found and if you're interested I'll get a price on it. You can either take it or laugh at me and walk out. He came back with the price, I looked at it and said SOLD! They had to go to Lawton, OK to get it. Now, why couldn't the dealers in SoCal do that???? Would have been a lot easier on me than trying to do it here. I wasn't real sure about the silver color, but the more I thought about it, it made sense, won't show dirt so bad since I tow and live on a dirt road. My vehicles only stay clean 1 day at home.

@Vickie...Nah, she's way to glamorous to be a JipJip, will have to drive her for a while to come up with a name for her. As for the tires, it's a short wheel base car, so no taking turns to fast, good way to land on your noggin! I've been driving jeeps for years, so that's not an issue.

@Anita....as far as I'm concerned, car salesmen are the scum of the earth and I don't play their games, so I was very pleasantly surprised at this dealership. The manager has gone above and beyond for me. So far. Maybe it's a Texas thing?

@Gloria..... Blackburn is the name of the pancake syrup I'm looking for, not the name of a town....that I know of, anyway. Got the car here in Greenville, Tx.

@Lori.... the Sultan can push my buttons anytime! And Spinner is welcome to ride in it!

@Diane....Of course it's 4X4....has to be to tow it 4 down and how else are we going to terrorize poor Evie going off road???

@Beth....can't wait to see you again...are you going to be in the SW anytime soon?

[Yakn1]

Yipee for you girl! Of course it's a Texas thang ( not thing), we try to be nice to you foreigners !!

Sounds like she has all the bells and whistles, so much fun for you. Have always liked silver around here as it does hide dirt better than a lot of colors.

Have fun with your new baby!!
