Jeep is for sale!

After 9 1/2 years and 119,500 miles, we are saying "Adieu" to our Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited. We got the car in December 1999 when Mark was just 7 months old, so he is the most upset about losing his beloved SUV. But after spending ridiculous amounts of precious dollars on unnecessary repairs and constant maintenance, we finally realized it was time to replace the Jeep so we bought Boyd his loaded (and beautiful!) 2004 GMC Yukon. This car served our family well through 4 children, including bringing home Jocelyn and Blake as newborn babies. Wendy originally drove it as an Intel work car, but then we bought it out from Intel when she quit in July, 2001. Our total purchase price (including the upgrade costs and the lease buy-out) was about $30K. Today we are selling it for $6500!


The car has a beautiful color scheme and drives really well. Its V-8 engine gets 14-17 mpg and has been very safe and powerful on mountain roads and even in treacherous snow storms in Utah.
Leather seats are a must with children. These seats are still in excellent condition after 10 years because Wendy was meticulous about cleaning and vacuuming the car weekly.

Wood trimmed interior and steering wheel controls made the interior very nice and comfortable.

We hope we sell the car quickly, otherwise, Mark may inherit it when he turns 17! (But do we really want a Jeep sitting in our drive-way another 7 years?! ) Happy car sales to us!
