Re: Trade-in a '95 GC or buy a '04?
The 97 ZJ v8 I have just hit 160K over the weekend.... which transfer case
do you have? The cat isn't that much - especially if you do it yourself.
As for the AC - I can understand that. I don't know how much it costs to
replace, sorry. But in the end, afaik it's cheaper to keep the clunker you
have :) anyone else? Bill? Mike?

Re: Trade-in a '95 GC or buy a '04?
It doesn't sound like he's taken care of it. I agree it's cheaper
to keep the car is you follow their lube schedules, I have over three
hundred thousand miles on my '78 Bronco and '89 Thunderbird.
