Default Bye bye jeep :/

Had to trade the jeep in. It was getting difficult to get my daughter in the back, and the gas mileage was taking its toll. Never realized how much I liked it till it was gone and couldn't drive it. It's probably best. Maybe someone can have as much fun with it as I did. I hope I see it around town with no top, no doors, and covered in mud. I will be back in a jeep as soon as possible. Just as a toy, not a daily driver. Any kind words from someone that's been in my position before? Lol. Thanks for the help over the years, I'm going to keep up with the forum more. Makes me feel still connected.

Sorry to hear this. Get back in one soon. I know your pain, just have been blessed so far and not needed to get rid of jeep. Good luck.

Thanks. Thought I was doing good. At least I have memories, pics, and it was a good vehicle. Times just changed. Bought it in party mode. Had to sell it for family mode. I'll be back soon I hope.

Hey I knew someone that had to do this too. It took a toll on him but at least he sold me all his parts (bumpers, lights, step bars, cb, taillight covers, winch) before he traded in.

Hey! Just like the motto "Its A Way Of Life" Keep connected to the forum or local jeepers. Don't have to have one in possession. You can still go wheeling with others, give a helping hand, or provide insight.

I almost had to do this. I got myself a motorcycle to compensate for the gas.

Thanks guys. This forum will make me feel better. Funny how things work. I'll still try to keep up with everything so I won't miss much. On the bright side, I got a sweet truck. Maybe I can find a beater rusted out jeep and start a project...

Selling my extras is on my agenda. Didn't have much that came off the jeep.
