Snarly Utility Vehicle

Spotted this butch-looking Jeep SJ Cherokee Chief while out and about yesterday. I dig the side exhausts. Maybe not super practical, but this thing's hardly set up for rock-crawling anyway.

I can never see a Cherokee Chief without thinking of the song by the same name off Jerry Harrison's Casual Gods solo album...
"Got a bulletproof window, two inches of steel
Nothing gets to me, sitting at that wheel
Got a big gun on the top, wide track down below
No place in this jungle, no place I can't go

Don't look now I'm parked outside your window
But you can't see my face through the pane
Oh, in this town it's always earthquake weather
When you drink at the bar, look straight ahead"
