Default Before and After

I just ran across this old picture. It's funny what a few years can do.

Before: 1998 Jeep Cherokee Sport (inline 6), and 2000 Camaro V6.


After: 1999 2-Door Tahoe, and 2001 Formula Firehawk.

Nice upgrades. I've always like 'hoes, no matter how old. My upgrade was kind of similar. In the last year went from 1995 Jeep Cherokee/1997 Z28 to 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee/1999 Z28. Without a doubt I prefer my current rides. I thought I was going to miss the Cherokee but the GC was a HUGE upgrade in comfort and room although it seems a lot slower. Obviously it was the opposite for my Camaros, LOL.

Nice upgrade. Yeah I "raced" my friend with a '01ish cherokee Laredo, He slingshoted me, and I reeled him in by 90. We both had the 4.0L I6, but his was full time AWD.

No, my dad works at GM (best auto company in the world btw, don't forget it) and they can swap their company cars with each other. He wanted to bring something fun for the 24 hour trip. It's also a 6 speed.
