Used to be, if I would have been handed the $100, my first thought would have been to have someone watch the kids and take my wife out to dinner. Now first thought was, what could I get to put the $100 to good use, for the Jeep
Handles, I have the smittybilt and a recovery strap or a spiderwebshade.

Gas and take the wife to dinner for suggesting you get something for the Jeep. She is a keeper.

Or a tuffy underseat drawer from northridge if you have a softop.

Yeah, I thought about the spidershade as well. She's told me to pick out my Fathers Day gift for the Jeep, just not sure what top I want yet.

Tuffy is 99. Bestop underseat drawer is 59, but a little smaller.

Unfortunately, this is probably relatively accurate.

4wd.com has free shipping to any of the 4Wheel Parts stores since that's who owns them.

My Jeep is still pretty much stock, but I have added several items that cost under $100. Here's some suggestions:

- VDP Stubby Bumper Kit
- Off-road lights
- Fuel door
- Light guards
- Diffential covers (you could buy one to start)
- Portable air compressor
- Staun's tire deflators
- Tow strap
- Evap skidplate

$100 = a tank of gas.

With summer here, you will really appreciate that Spiderweb shade. I got sunburned too many times last year and finally got mine last month. Now even the wife likes to drive around topless. If I can just convince her to let me buy the tube doors next...
