I bought the coolest first gen. Dodge I have ever seen. Even if it wasn't a matter of money tp pay for the new truck, it just doesn't make sense to keep driving the Waggy when I could burn 1/2 the fuel and tow the Carryall to boot.
I will miss the Jeep. I will miss that "right size" of carrying four guys plus camping gear and still being able to fit on a narrow trail. I had nighmares about letting it go last night. I've had it for 10 years now. I've driven it from West Virginia to Santa Monica, from the upper penninsula of Michigan to Baja, from Key West to 14,269 feet above see level to the top of Mount Antero in Colorado, plus Black Bear Pass, Poughkeepsie Gultch, and all that.
The only trail she never finished was Crown King, AZ, but that was pre-lift, pre-lockers, and during the only week of the year when it is actually muddy there.
