We may be older Jeepers but we are young in our minds. My wife asked me when I was going to grow up, i replied when I turn 90. maybe... My wife and I are just rejoining the life style at 65. My first Jeep, well Jeepster was a 1949 and my first car. Before being able to legally drive I was piloting a 1946 military around the neighbors woods. Over the years the wife an I have had a collection of mostly CJ's. As life happened I traded in our Jeeps for grocery getters. Now we are in the process of retiring, bought a motorhome and are in the process of adding a 2013 Wrangler to use as our fun mobile and a "toad" for the motorhome. We test drove the target of our affections today. A little city street, a little highway and a bunch of snow trail hopping. It has been years since both the wife and I had that big of grin at the same time for that long of a time. Back to the dealer we went to work a deal and get it prepped and detailed. Hope to see ya'll in the woods sometime after the snow melts. When we are not RVing in the coach we will be doing it in the Jeep (RVing that is).

 

I just turned 45 and am in the process of looking for a new jeep.
I had one earlier on but then life happened.
You get married, have kids and priorities change.
My little guy is now 10 and he is old enuf now to start getting back into "things" lol
Past couple of years got back into fishing, camping and now looking for a new jeep.
You get older but the passion never dies!

 

Well, I'm 53 and have had a jeep for as long as I have been driving. Right now I have a 12 jkr, an 06 TJ x, and a 14 cherokee.

There is nothing better than a wrangler and the wrangler community.

 

65, have had 7 Jeeps since1982. Currently a 14 4door Rubicon.

 

Im not sure 40 is old but I turned it last year. Also got my 2014 JK Sport last year and it is paid for.

The JK is my 7th Jeep. Got my first Alaskan Postal Jeep in 95 after being discharged from USMC boot, think right hand drive World Top 1984 Scrambler. At one point I had 4 of those, still have the first one it has a CJ10a half cab. My 90 XJ got narrowed by 16" by a Suburban. Spent the last 10 years in a 95 lifted ZJ. Hit and killed a moose cow with the ZJ and didnt need any body work. Damn near hit a moose calf with the JK, I would have hit it if I had been driving the ZJ.

The XJ and ZJ were used a lot to haul my 16' cataraft and dogs around for river trips. After a couple of years of disuse the big raft is gonna be sold and Im gonna buy a trailer and do my camping with the remaining dog with the Jeep. Ill still camp on river banks, ill just be driving to them instead of floating down to them. I hope to have a rack on the JK by summer to haul the 9' cataraft and oars around for lake fishing.

 

I just turned 73 last month and am enjoying my first Jeep. I did my own axle swap last fall and did a build thread on my rig "Grandma & Grandpas toy". Check it out for more info.



I've enjoyed modifying the Jeep, and cruising the JK forums. I have friends with Corvettes and I wouldn't trade my Jeep for one if I had to keep it.

 

53 and am also enjoying my first recently purchases '12 ruby.

 

I'm just 47, but feel like I'missed out on lots of things in life. I got into trucks, but not into Jeeps. Until now. I just bought my first Jeep - a '14 JKU. It's been a long long time since I fell in love with a vehicle. I hope to get many years of fun out of this one

 

I only have a few months left of being a perfect square (8 x 8 = 64). I turn 65 in July.
I'm on Jeep #6. Bought my first Jeep (CJ-7) new in 1982. Currently have a 2013 JKU 10A Rubicon and of all the Jeeps I've had I like this one the best!
