I've known about the site for awhile. Learned more about the site when one of the members here bought a beretta from another member then joined the beretta forum..LOL

I'm looking for a Wrangler style Jeep right now. I'm trying to sell one of my Berettas or trade it for one. I have a line on a 97 TJ in Canada right now so maybe that will work out for me. All of them I find around my area are piles of crap!

I believe 2 of the guys I work with are on this forum as well. I see a Great Lakes sticker on the one kids Dodge so I kinda figure and they both have jeeps.

My name is Sara, I live in Midland, MI, have wanted a Jeep for awhile now but haven't had any luck. Had a guy want to trade me a Jeep for a Motor I have and then disappeared off the face of the earth. Typical weirdo!

I have a 97 Explorer XLT
96 Beretta Base
95 Beretta Z26 <--one for sale
and an 1985 Honda Shadow 700 V Twin.


I spent my 4th of July out at Silver Lake and saw a lot of nice Jeeps and other Rigs out there. My brother has an 87 K5 Jimmy we took out there and blew up after an hour on the sand :( Did the same thing last year on the same day..haha So after that I was stuck on the dunes with his friend who has an H2 but is afraid to actually drive it like it should be driven, bcause it has 24s on it and just isn't meant to be driven off road:blah:, mind you this was after he broke his 79 Bronco because he forgot to strap the battery down and slammed the battery into the radiator and poked a hole through it...hahaha:sonicjay: He got stuck at the top of test hill because he parked in a retarded spot and then a guy in a red jeep made fun of him for getting stuck. It was hilarious!:sonicjay:

Anyways I just wanted to say hi, I know several people from the board and figured if I joined it would increase my chances of finding a nice Jeep :)

Here are some pictures of my toys.

I can't seem to part with this truck! I love it for some crazy reason, probably because it's been with me for 6 years now.


95 Z26




96 Base. This one has all the extra goodies, Custom CAI, Lowered, etc etc

More people than I thought from Midland!

Doesn't look like I'll be getting a Jeep in time for Silver Lake :(

The guy from Canada who contacted me about a trade is ignoring all my emails like an ahole. And I can't find anything here I like. Everything is either way to expensive or about what I wanna pay and a stick :(


And seriously what is up with the Funfetti interiors?!

Well I found 3 today. Actually 1 of them found me.

I found the one in Frankenmuth at Schafer and Bierlein.

94 Wrangler, 102k, 6cyl, auto, little bit of lift I think? I'm sort so I had to do a bit of streching to get in..LOL and I think american racing rims, they want $5900 from the sign I found in the back seat. My only concerns were that there is a big rust bubble on the front fender by the front door and the windsheild had a piece of black duct tape in each corner, other than that it was in pretty good shape.

Rust Bubble


Duct tape windsheild




This is cracked





And the Eject button? LOL Someone said its a choke??



The other one I got an email from a guy in Millington I put an ad on craigslist looking for a Jeep figured I found my bike that way It might work again

99 Wrangler, 4cyl auto, 111k, 2in lift, new wheels and tires, bushwacker fenders, cd player, hard top.

I'm told I don't want a 4 cyl? He is supposed to call me tomorrow so I can go look at it. I love this one, just from looking at the pictures..LOL







This is a whole new world to me I have no idea what I'm doing when it comes to Jeep shopping. :confused:

The Other one was a 98 Wrangler in Clio at RPM auto sales and it was in ok shape someone put hood pins on it and took the latches off..It looked....stupid. The salesman said I HAD to finace it there and they wanted $8900. I said no thanks, I can do without paying 48% interest.
