    Road trip in the TJ with pops

    Leaving Washington state headed to Virginia. Plan on stopping to visit gramps in Chicago and the older sister in philly. It’s nearly 3300 miles and I just had about $3500 in repairs to the ride. It’s an 03 tj with a 3 1/2” loft rolling on 33s. Should be fun! JLLJ my dads account.
