+The Weasel Posted January 13, 2004 Posted January 13, 2004 Here is a pic of my new caching mobile I bought last night. I was so excited I just had to share!! Quote
+Halden Posted January 13, 2004 Posted January 13, 2004 When are you getting it painted Yellow? Quote
+The Weasel Posted January 13, 2004 Author Posted January 13, 2004 But it's not yellow! I know, I know. White wasn't my color of choice, but for the price you couldn't beat it. I told the wife I had to get it painted yellow to help contribute to the Yellow Jeep cache. I think I lost her on that. Quote
+Sparky-Watts Posted January 13, 2004 Posted January 13, 2004 Good lookin' buggy, there, Weasel!! Quote
+sbell111 Posted January 13, 2004 Posted January 13, 2004 Congrats and good choice. I love my Jeep. Of course right now its in the shop getting its axle rebuilt, but in a few days I'll be able to play agin. Quote

+toybreaker Posted January 13, 2004 Posted January 13, 2004 I am kinda new, been away from the scene for awhile, What is the deal with it needing to be yellow. I love yellow and jeeps by the way. Just Curious Rob Quote
+The Weasel Posted January 13, 2004 Author Posted January 13, 2004 Hmmm, maybe I can convince her to let me put the geocaching logo on the hood instead? Quote

JoeyTomato Posted January 15, 2004 Posted January 15, 2004 Man Jeep guys really are proud. I should make a website for my Neon. "It's a Jeep thing, you wouldnt understand" ~ common catch phrase among Jeepers Jeep is not just a vehicle, kind of like a Harley isnt just a motorcycle, there is a lifestyle and attitude among many of us who actually venture beyond the pavement with our Jeeps. My OffRoad albums Here Quote
+CacheCreatures Posted January 15, 2004 Posted January 15, 2004 What I want to know is when will they make one big enough to fit my 6'9" arse. I climbed into the Hummer H1 and H2 not too long ago. I nearly cried. My wife's Vibe has more driver room than the H1, and the H2 is a glorified Suburban with less interior room. That new Jeep/Hummer might be interesting. I wonder if it does better than 8 MPG though... I guess I'll stick with my GMC Sierra 1500 Ext Cab for now. Quote
+The Weasel Posted January 15, 2004 Author Posted January 15, 2004 What I want to know is when will they make one big enough to fit my 6'9" arse. I guess I can finally be blessed for being 5' 3" . I got all sorts of leg room Quote

2oldfarts (the rockhounders) Posted January 15, 2004 Posted January 15, 2004 We got a 2004 Dodge 1500 QuadCab with a HEMI! Of course it is 4X4....so we took it out right away & got some Utah 'pin-striping' . This is a real sweet truck & goes anywhere. Jeep? Who needs one except to take a picture of it. Quote

Joey has a pile into that rig, I know 'cause I have just about the same set-up, except on a more rugged platform. (Sorry I couldn't resist. ) Quote
JoeyTomato Posted January 15, 2004 Posted January 15, 2004 (edited) Thanks guys ...and I can assure you, it aint just for taking pictures, and it's not a Pavement Princess. It has been to places full size rigs have only seen photographs of....Pic's taken by Jeepers It's about 230HP and its about half the weight of a Full Size extended cab truck, it's been regeared to 4.56's , Dual ARB Air Locking differentials, 7" Lift, Heavy Duty transfercase conversion,36" SuperSwampers and has 23" Clearance under the middle. I've also got a 9500lb Warn winch on the front, but its certainly isn't used very often.

Guess the only thing for you to do is bring that Jeep down here to Kansas, and trade it for my GMC POS truck. I'll be waiting on the porch with the keys....... Quote
+sbell111 Posted January 22, 2004 Posted January 22, 2004 I love my Jeep. Of course right now its in the shop getting its axle rebuilt, but in a few days I'll be able to play agin. Hurray! I finally got the Jeep back. Now I can get out and have some fun. Quote
dave and jaime Posted January 22, 2004 Posted January 22, 2004 ok, i dont have a jeep, i have a 4x4 truck. anyway i could never understand the idea that some folks have about these machines--they pay extra insurance, extra repairs etc and never test the abilities of the machine. my truck was about 6 months old when i dropped her on a rock dented the door sill, as far as im concerned thats a war wound and she now has earned many (jees, just thinking about it makes me teary). dad took his 2 week old 3/4 ton gmc truck and nearly lost her in a river surge this past fall. these machines are fine if you use them but why would you have one if you dont use it (im thinking about the 1 ton dually that only gets groceries)?
