Here it is, 2000 limited 4x4 with multimode transfer case and rear locker.
Had 170,000 miles when I bought it. For the most part seems pretty solid. I plan to do everything maintenance wise on it as the guy I bought it from owned it for a couple years and doesn't seem like he did much with it and he didn't have too much info as far as what was done prior to him buying it, so I will start from scratch so I know what I have.

Went to Discount Tire and got some new shoes for her. 265/75/16 BFG KM2s
Also cleaned up the beaten centercaps and gave them a facelift with some silver wheel paint and trimmed the rear mudflaps to follow the fender flares. Cleaned it up real nice.

Within the last couple weeks I have done a few small repairs and upgrades...
-Replaced front passenger marker bulb
-Put new air filter
-Gave the inside a good cleaning and vacuuming, it was nasty, that tan leather interior is magic for hiding grime. Still need to pull seats out and give everything a good shampooing
-New Weathertech floormats for front and back, still need to find one for the cargo area
-Bought an o2 sensor as it threw the code for it, still haven't replaced it though
-Bought new plugs, wires, radiator but will probably wait to do all this when I do the timing belt and water pump once it warms up a bit.

Took the runner on my elk hunt, was really impressed with how this thing pulls, we were pushing snow passed the bumper in spots as you can see in the pics and she didn't stop! Took a beautiful pic of our ranch covered in the white stuff. Oh, and had a successful hunt also, hope no one gets offended by the pic, 100% organic. :naughty: ...:50cal:

Nice! That desert dune is a good color! Here's mine.
I'm getting new tires tomorrow. You are making me reconsider upsizing to 265/75 from the stock size...
Not sure what your planning on doing to yours but I will be lifting mine soon so that's why I went with the 265/75, plus it gives you a little more ground clearance. They are the same width just an inch taller. I have no issues rubbing at all. Your machine looks nice man, really clean!

Congrats on the elk! You're covering the most important tine though... Is it a monster 5 point or is it a 6 point?

Thanks man! Lol, he would have been a 6x6 but he has a broken eye guard making him a 5x6. He is solid all the way thru other than that, could've been wider but I am extremely happy with him! You hunt I assume?

Looks like a nice bull for sure. I need to find a picture of the one my father got this year. HUGE animal, but both antlers were broken off. Probably a younger bull beating up on him taking his ladies.
I am not sure I would say I am a hunter anymore... My family has a great big ranch out in Eastern Oregon where we go deer and elk hunting, but for the past 4 years or so I have just been a pack mule more or less. If we come upon 2 deer or elk I'll shoot, but other wise I'll let them take the shot. My first deer ever is in the Oregon record book, so it's hard to get too excited anymore =p
I just like getting out there spending time with my dad and brother in law. Drinking beer, hiking, fishing, shooting, etc.
Here he is... MONSTER of an animal. Makes that 340 WBY Magnum look small.

That's the most expensive 3rd gen I've seen. It would be over 40gs if they added the Low-Jack alarm. ($900)
