I got it so my brother and I could have some fun on a couple archery and rifle hunts down in the Texas Hill Country. The Camo accents are part of the 2021 upgrades, lol The haters will say you can't polish a turd - maybe not, but you can roll it in glitter. LOL Here are a few before and after pics and Bonus Points for any of y'all who recognize the fella in the middle. Enjoy! Be calm brother, I see you and thank you. Your spirit and body nourish mine. Be calm brother; I see you and thank you.

XJ’s are very reliable Generally speaking, we're better looking when we are blurry, lol. John Mills is the answer, bowsnrods. He used to be active on here but I've been off the grid for a while. Got to hunt a couple times with him and Cody. Great guys. Last edited by TMc; 09/26/21 02:29 AM. Be calm brother, I see you and thank you. Your spirit and body nourish mine.

Silver spurs and gold tequila keep me hanging on. Pretty girls and old cantinas give me shelter from the storm.

Added a 3 inch lift and some 265x75R16 tires and wheels to get me out of the mud. Looks great! I didn't go with the lift and as a result the biggest I could fit were the 235/75/15's but I really like the look and performance out of them. My brother is more geared for the more serious off road stuff - I'm in the dilapidated hunting rig mode. Must be nice being able to get in the back seat(at least where my backseat was) so easily, lol. Last edited by TMc; 09/28/21 12:42 AM. Be calm brother, I see you and thank you.
