Looking for a Jeep!
...one in particular- either a 2005 or 2006 Wrangler Unlimited in Light Khaki exterior w/ khaki interior and auto tranny.
If anyone is exceptional with their Google-fu or can psychically divine one for me, please help! I found one in Carmel, Indiana- drove up to look at it and it was a turd in person.

Curious, why an unlimited TJ? Don't like the 4dr?

Well some of us can't drive standard shift any more due to back issues LOL. Which is why I drive a vehicle with a slap shifter - sometimes you just want to row the boat yourself.

You can't get a 4.0 motor in a 4 door wrangler and if you have a bad back the unlimited has a better ride in stock form. I know my TJ beats me up on an hour long drive but mine is lifted.

yep- Need an auto, no more clutching for me; plus an auto is better off-road...The 4 doors '07-11 have the gutless 3.8 mini-van engine, even so, I'd love to have one of those, but an '07 is a couple grand outside of my budget.
The 'LJ' rides a lot softer than the TJ due to the 10" longer wheelbase.

I have a very underpowered basically stock 30 year old manual 4Runner that would take that manual/auto offroading challenge....haha

Girlfriend went from a TJ to a JK & I don't notice any difference. They both feel equally gutless.
