how many teenagers out there driving there jeeps on minimum wage?
 
#3 ·
Just turned 20 and working 2 jobs since 15 (50-60 hr weeks) @ $11.30 hr and manager @ $9.30 / hr (don't get me started -.- ) (current pay, used to be minimum for both)

Some pics.. orange one is my brothers one before he totaled it.. green one is my 97 TJ before I traded it in for a Mazda3 and realized I made a poor decision (frame was completely rusted out anyways).
Black 05 TJ is my current one.

Here was my first one that I still have at least for now

And a 1960 cj5 that I only had for a few months had a 350 in it but was a big pain to have to deal with trailering it everywhere so I sold it

And I am getting this 2004 LJ tomorrow night

18. Currently $0.00/hr. Over the summer, $8.00/hr (with a promised raise next year).
I sold off the KC's. The bumper is about to go next. I have about 500 parts ready to go on. Double axle swap, truss, regear, SYE and shaft, Savvy TT and Metalcloak front bumper

18 years old. I dont have a job anymore, but i was making $7.25p/h at Cavender's. Been saving up for my lift, and I have just enough now to buy a Currie 4". Installation will be my next issue.

18. No job currently while I'm in college in fl. But back home in North Carolina I make 8.25/h working way too many hours... They help me pay for my yj though!



Soon getting sJones's bumper and hopefully a winch, roof rack, and some other nice things! Bought it stock, far from that now, about to be even farther.

Damn and I thought I blew too much money on the love of my life! I got one for ya; 20yrs old, bought her before I could drive, make 9/hr and full time U of M college student. Holdin it down through these ****ed up gas prices. Mostly stock for now until I can justify blowing a life savings on her. Sorry for the big pic in advance.
