I could tell you, but then I’d have to….
Jeff, I'll volunteer to watch your Bronco, and warm up the engine periodically until you get back!@????
Much appreciated! I’ve got a buddy of mine watching the house and Bronco for me. He’s a former 5th Group guy with a few Bronze Stars to his name. Just gotta get past him!

You'll want to move the tires around a bit too, so that they're not always sitting on the same segment. It's a sacrifice, but that's what friends are for, right?
Don’t worry… it’s on stands…

Well, I consolidated. Sold Z71 4x4 used for hunting and hauling firewood. A tundra limited doublecab 2x4 used for towing the boat and disaster relief trailers, and a jeep liberty limited 4x4 that we towed behind the motor. I can do all with one ranger now. Just not as big trailers.

Traded in my 2008 ML-350 with 114k miles for the Ranger. The Benz was a great vehicle for my decade in NJ while crew based in Newark. Previously, I traded in my venerable 2005 Tacoma DoubleCab for the Benz. Times change. Missions change.

On a side note, that Mini JCW was a blast to drive. It’s long gone as well.

I let go of a 20K down payment. I figured it might be my last new one, and I’d do it right. Now after being so disappointed with all the issues, I’m tempted to trade it for the Ridgeline. I think I have 3 payments left on it and just turned over 12K

I really miss my MK7 GTI. I wanted to keep it but did not make any sense financially for me to keep it.
