[QUOTE="Gilaguy23, post: 440519, member: 19498"] You can do plenty with a streetable and nicely modded YJ or TJ, but at some point it becomes a PITA to use it for a run for groceries and stuff like that, wear and tear on tires and running gear etc. Kinda depends on where you live and how far the area is your going to wheel. Ive sold just sold just about every open top jeep Ive owned over the decades because my work was 90 miles round trip. I loved them but gas, wear and tear and plain old inconvenience made for a POS commuter car to save the truck and jeep. I have a ZJ with 264K miles on it now that saw 30+miles of muddy rutted roads 3-5 days a week, and its still going good save some bushing wear in the suspension. I understand the "just buy a YJ for the street" but after 47 years of modded jeeps as DD's, Buy a friking cheapo car or something like that to commute and save the jeep. [/QUOTE]
