&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt; 2005 Jeep Wrangler X &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Need to make some room in the garage so I’m getting rid of a couple of things, starting with this.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This Jeep is in mint condition and has plenty of upgrades done to it. It has seen very light offroading and the winch has only been used a few times. No dings, dents or scratches and the interior is in great shape and nicely protected. Low Miles and tons of fun.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Specs:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Here’s what I thought about it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Artist: The Allman Brothers Band&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Album: Beginnings&lt;br/&gt;Release: 1973 &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I give this the album a solid C. &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;The dueling guitar work of Dicky and Duane starts off hot but then starts to fizzle as it finishes out &lt;em&gt;Dreams&lt;/em&gt;. The rest of the album starts going down hill as it plays through the studio version of &lt;em&gt;Whipping Post&lt;/em&gt; and the painfully god awful sound of &lt;em&gt;Rivival&lt;/em&gt;. It does start to perk back up on &lt;em&gt;Don’t Keep Me Wonderin’&lt;/em&gt; but then fades fast again on weak version of &lt;em&gt;Elizabeth Reed&lt;/em&gt; and a stupid rendition of &lt;em&gt;Hoochie Coochie Man&lt;/em&gt;. &lt;em&gt;Please Call Home&lt;/em&gt; was so slow that I went and got another coffee because I got tired. It does end on a high note with &lt;em&gt;Leave My Blues At Home&lt;/em&gt; but if I was the producer I would of added this to 1st half of the album and ditch the rest.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;em&gt;Track List:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;em&gt;    Don’t Want You No More&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;em&gt;    It’s Not My Cross To Bear&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;em&gt;    Black Hearted Woman&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;em&gt;    Trouble No More&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;em&gt;    Every Hungry Woman&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;em&gt;    Dreams&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;em&gt;    Whipping Post&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;em&gt;    Revival&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;em&gt;    Don’t Keep Me Wonderin’&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;em&gt;    Midnight Rider&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;em&gt;    In Memory of Elizabeth Reed&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;em&gt;    Hoochie Coochie Man&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;em&gt;    Please Call Home&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;em&gt;    Leave My Blues At Home&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Eject CD and put back on shelf for another 10 years.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://nickgrant.com/post/443605091</link><guid>http://nickgrant.com/post/443605091</guid><pubDate>Fri, 12 Mar 2010 12:21:00 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title>70 Awesome Open Source Tools for Graphic Designers</title><description>&lt;a href="http://graphicdesigndegrees.org/70-awesome-open-source-tools-for-graphic-designers/"&gt;70 Awesome Open Source Tools for Graphic Designers&lt;/a&gt;</description><link>http://nickgrant.com/post/426841681</link><guid>http://nickgrant.com/post/426841681</guid><pubDate>Thu, 04 Mar 2010 16:35:16 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title>Oh just getting some gas at this place.</title><description>&lt;img src="http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ky0j9uTvYi1qak0zqo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Oh just getting some gas at this place.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://nickgrant.com/post/395645014</link><guid>http://nickgrant.com/post/395645014</guid><pubDate>Wed, 17 Feb 2010 20:10:06 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title>Wow and then there’s this sticker.</title><description>&lt;img src="http://29.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kxw6lv4cIX1qak0zqo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Wow and then there’s this sticker.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://nickgrant.com/post/390995578</link><guid>http://nickgrant.com/post/390995578</guid><pubDate>Mon, 15 Feb 2010 11:46:06 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title>Chop your own wood and heat yourself twice.</title><description>&lt;img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kxhmm9QUpU1qak0zqo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;Chop your own wood and heat yourself twice.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://nickgrant.com/post/376579723</link><guid>http://nickgrant.com/post/376579723</guid><pubDate>Sun, 07 Feb 2010 15:08:09 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title>Social Networking Suicide Machine</title><description>&lt;a href="http://suicidemachine.org/"&gt;Social Networking Suicide Machine&lt;/a&gt;: &lt;p&gt;Perfect application for getting rid of all your social media accounts.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://nickgrant.com/post/369091375</link><guid>http://nickgrant.com/post/369091375</guid><pubDate>Wed, 03 Feb 2010 13:47:22 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title>iPhone app/attachment for accepting credit cards - so cool (if...</title><description>&lt;object width="400" height="336"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/3BP5ax1qs5o&amp;rel=0&amp;egm=0&amp;showinfo=0&amp;fs=1"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="wmode" value="transparent"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/3BP5ax1qs5o&amp;rel=0&amp;egm=0&amp;showinfo=0&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="400" height="336" allowFullScreen="true" wmode="transparent"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;p&gt;iPhone app/attachment for accepting credit cards - so cool (if real).&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://nickgrant.com/post/367214938</link><guid>http://nickgrant.com/post/367214938</guid><pubDate>Tue, 02 Feb 2010 12:59:52 -0500</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
