You can convert it to run on propane and wood or coal.

pretty much a harley chopper and a 4 door jeep (not sure what model yet, probably wrangler) with a v8 engine would be nice (pretty sure they don't make any of the wrangler/renegade/rubicon line with stock v8, idk the difference between those models i just like the body type that seems to be about the same on all of them). jeep needs ac (some don't have it) and a nice sound system.....and for the hell of it one of those vertical exhaust pipes on the front, raised supsension and bigass tires.....maybe a light rack on top and a winch kit in the front.

probably custom paint on both too, just for fun (black base with light blue detailed would be cool).

most likely i'll just end up with a factory versions of both more or less.

If you like the wrangler, then you would like the YJ. They are pretty much the same, except the Rubicon have IFS. So its a pain in the ass to lift it.
