My brain points to "sell" as well, given the mileage.

I think we need a pic of this XJ though. If the body is solid, they're sort of sought after. I still want a 2-door XJ (preferably 4.0/manual) for some reason, even though there are currently more 4WD vehicles on the property than drivers.

Ok, point me in the direction of where to find our most recent "how to post an image" tutorial. 

Body is is relatively good shape.   Two dimples in the side door (shutting it with my hip, didn't learn the first time.  bang head laughingdp).  Rims are in sad shape.  Tires have a lot of life left in them.  New brakes, pads, calipers, LOF and general tune up at the beginning of the year.   On occasion, it'll hesitate at a warm start.  I let off the gas for a few seconds and it works itself out and then we're GTG.    Smiley

Flickr seems good, but AFAIK the app doesn't work from a phone.

As an owner of a '99 WJ since new, I sympathize with your dilemma.   

My wife keeps asking me what I want to get if/when she (the car) kicks the bucket, me = another WJ!

I think KBB may be low, and if it is too much of a hassle to store it, do you have someone in the area that you trust & could lend or sell it to that can 'occasionally' drive while away?

Good point about KBB.  At this point a '99 CJ is a special interest vehicle.  IMO, as a used '99 vehicle with that much mileage Kelley would be quite high, but for an enthusiast way low.  The problem would be connecting with that enthusiast.

There are a ton of them out here so I'll price it a little higher.  If I ever get to that point. 

Moving and leaving a job is a time suck.  For now.   Wink

Yep.  That's my personal one.  I had a white jeep for work.
