It's a 2004 black renegade that seems to be very stock. It's in outstanding condition other than a little rust in the driver side rock rail. It does have one aftermarket component that I can't quite figure - There is a 2 1/2 inch black rectangular box with some kind of four inch antenna sticking out of it that's glued to the windshield above and behind the rear view mirror. The wiring very neatly disappears into the upholstery at the top of the window. ???
I bought the little beast because I have a boat to tow, ski hills to get to (with skis), windsurfing to do (with boards, sails, masts, etc) and camping to do. I've never done any off roading like most of you serious Jeep owners, but I'm kind of looking forward to getting it muddy.
As far as future mods: I'd like new rock rails/running boards, maybe some more updated wheels - even though the stock five spoke aluminums are not too terrible, I want to swap out the current front seats that have leather panels with some full leather heated seats, and I want a hard shell case for the spare.
Down the road, I want to play with the 3.7. From what I've read on the threads so far, it doesn't seem like there are a lot of great options, so I'll have to think that one through. Turbo would be outstanding.
I love this thing more every single time I turn the key. The only thing I don't like so far is watching the gas gage tick down like the second hand of my watch.
