13k, more than i wanted to spend but i got my paments low enough to afford it. Plus im saving quite a bit by not having to buy a soft or hard top. Its has 63k miles. The guy that took care of me was cool, and he knew his stuff. Yea i would have like to get the 4cyl to save on gas but its not that much of a difference so i just got the 6cyl. ---

13k dammmn? What year is it? My mom bought a 98 for 6k with 60k on it. No hard top but 4cyl and 5 speed and has 33’s and a body lift. Gets around 24-25 mpg. It still has 60xxx on it, as she drives it only on nice days and like 100 miles a year, sigh. No mud ever rar. ---
