    Default Car totalled, shopping time!

    Well my 04 sentra specv is a total and it's time to move on.

    I'm thinkin about buying either a late model xj cherokee, with a hitch and getting an enduro bike that I can cruise around during the summer but also use in place like maclean creek.

    I'm also open to any ideas anyone has about something similar to the cherokee, I;m kinda drawing a blank here.

    For the enduro bike I was thinking something like a kawasaki klx 450, (my buddy has 250 but it's just not fast enough for anything on road) Again im open to similarly priced options.

    Looks like ill be getting 9-10k for my car so that's the budget here for both.

    The jeep should be the majorityof the budget, the bike is just something to dick around on when I feel like it.

    Will not be spending 6k on a motorbike that's for sure.


    also a yj is not a daily driver, I need something with 4 doors that can take me and my friends to the mountains. and the 4cylinde not climbing any moutains,I ad one in a tj and it was terrible.

    That beamer would be a beast to get up hills, beast as in heavy mother fucker that would crush you when you didn't make it up haha. You wont find much for decent on/off road for cheap my man, nothing worthy of riding in mclean or waiprous imo at least. My dirtbikes for sale if you want a trail ripper! '03 CRF450 haha.

    Look for a 99 or older Cherokee. Stay away from 00-01's. Thats all I can offer you.

    I'm looking for a jeep since it has a solid motor, easy to find parts and I can fix everything mechanical on it myself.

    My buddy has a 250 klx that he rides in town sometimes and I have taken it out into the bush before and it performs just fine, keep in mind this will be my first bike.

    Why should I avoid the 00 and 01's just curious
