Passing on my Libby to my daughter

[spideyrdr]

In 2006 I was still a single guy.

My girlfriend was hanging around and I was driving around in a 1993? Pontiac Grand Am.
It was a piece of garbage lol
We referred to it as the "Piece of crap Pontiac"

But it got us around. We went from Denver to Kansas City a few times, it was an 'ok' vehicle.
Those toll booths were a bear - my driver side window didn't work.
Thanks GM.

Meanwhile, I fell in love - IN LOVE - with a 2005 Jeep Liberty

It had chunky tires and it was a small wheel base - it was my jam.

My little Liberty has seen me through some wild stuff. .

I am now a Dad and I am handing the key over to her. The Liberty is older than she is.

And it's she's going to get her license.

Nearly everything that needed replacing has been replaced - from the A/C down to the front and rear drive shafts.

Every part that squeaks or moves has been replaced.

I love my daughter with all of my soul - and the KJ is going to make her a better driver.

I have give my daughter 3. An 04 Sport to learn to drive in, paid $200 for it, an 02 Limited 4x4 for high school, paid $1000 for and a 2011 with 121,000 miles for college, paid $3000 for it in 2016. The first two had dropped valves and the 11 bad rod knock. I rebuilt the 04 and 02 with junkyard parts but put a reman in the 11. She still drives it to this day and hasn’t hit 160,000 yet.

Did the 02 limited have one dropped valve and after you fixed it the rest of the valves did not drop?
