No. I will never have a better response to any question than that. I have reached the pinnacle of my forum career, it is time to hang up my keyboard and go out on a high note. Retire my number!

Anytime I'm around this long in the evenings, she's either out of the house or asleep.

I'm bach'ing it tonight, too... good night for it... a couple of old buddies popped by... one's got a Jeep with 33" tires. Went out off roading for a bit tonight. Haven't done that since I was 16. You bite your nails a lot less in a CJ than in a Tracker, lemme tell you... especially when he's got another set of body panels in his garage waiting to be installed and painted.

Speaking of Jeeps, how'd you like to get your hands on this Jeep for a test drive?

Peter I watched that thing a little while back on some auto show on TV, it's really amazing, it will do a 360 and never exceed the radius of the length of the jeep! I was impressed...but could you even begin to imagine the cost of such a contraption!

Can you imagine the cost of repairs?

And the idea behind a Jeep (I mean a real Willys Citizen's Jeep) is that any monkey can fix it. Keep removing bolts until whatever it is falls out. (That's what the Chilton manual says - it's a pamphlet!)

a buddy of mine here in town has an original Willis jeep, that was handed down to him from his father.. he had the motor rebuilt and some body work done on it, and it is a pretty neat ride.. i have never been off roading with him in it, but we have putted around town.. i cant say much for its comfortable ride, cause it dont have one. very rough, bouncy, jerky, and it pitches from right to left pretty bad. makes lots of noise, and the clutch and shifting were unsmooth... but, the coolness factor override all that.. cause when you ride in that thing, people look..
