So with me waiting on parts and Grace (my daughter) turning 3 I figured it would be a good time to buy her a Jeep. So after searching the web for several days I found a good deal on this pink gem. $300 with a 2 year bumper to bumper warranty.

She'll get it tonight. I think she's gonna love it though. Now I'm probably gonna be asked to work on her jeep all the time.

Sweet! Trust me, You will be working on it. Here is my daughters. She is 3 1/2 years old.
Im putting bigger tires on it. They came off an F150. Much bigger. Need a longer axle in back and need to modify the front too. Also trim the fenders.

back when my kids were that age, we cut wheel barrow inner tubes
and put them around the tires for some traction
