Finally a Marine

[SeniorGustas]

just got home from basic training. Learned a lot about myself, and there's never been a greater feeling than claiming the title united states marine. unfortunately I have to sell my jeep. But I know this isn't where I end with Cherokee's! I plan to go to marine combat training and once I hit my MOS school I want to get another! to anyone in the Washington area my jeeps for sale dirt cheap as long as its to a fellow jeep lover, other wise it would sit here and rot slowly! 5 inch lift on 32s matte tan 4 speed! Merrry Christmas to all im glad to be back on the site and following builds! Much love to the site! thanks, pvt schramm

Congrats on the new chapter and title in your life!! Why not keep your XJ and just ship it down, instead of starting anew?? If nothing else check out Military Jeepers (www.militaryjeepers.com), great group of folks, and there are quite a few that are in the WA area... might be able to list it up there on the for sale section and have a fellow Jeeper & military member pick her up....

Thank you! its an honor, as far as keeping the jeep, im not sure it would even make it to Oregon.. hahhaha she needs some love, and right now im far more concerned with spending time with my family. This was my first jeep/car and im hooked I learned a lot about it and I would love to build another now that I know so much more and know what I want out of it. It also sounds like my butt will land on a MEU (marine expeditionary unit) aka being on a navy ship for a good 6-9 months so, it almost seems like a waste, to keep mine.
