I'm just going to assume you guys like Christmas as much as me and have decorated more than the house and tree. So lets see those jeeps (and mighty mites:wink:) all trimmed up.

Here's mine, i can get a little pic happy sometimes:camera:.

I just noticed that rear ornament hanging from the hitch. Is that the Christmas version of Trucknutz?

Nah, just an easy place to mount it. Plus there's only one, might be a little awkward.:smiley-laughing021:

Oh yeah, its not hard. I really get into Christmas so i enjoy it. Stay away from anything flashing though, they tend to be frowned on.;)

We won't make the parade of lights this year. It has been postponed anyway due to weather. Next year for us

No parade next year either. You know the end of the world comes on December 21st 2012
You have heard of the Mayan calendar.

This is too cool, I want to light my XJ up! How do you run the lights?? Converter, or are they special car lights or what?

I've got a small wreath, guess I'll stick that on the grill tomorrow!

Yeah, just a small inverter will power a couple small strands. LEDs will draw less so you can run more.
