Ladybug 718 Posted September 14 (edited) @gearhead, I was totally shocked and bummed to hear (at the Gala) that you sold your awesome go everywhere, do everything, jeep. I really hope you you get another jeep...I don't think the trails will be the same without you! Please stay in touch! smiles, ladybug Edited September 14 by theksmith 2 2 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gearhead 711 Posted September 15 (edited) Thanks for the shoutout @Ladybug. She took me to so many locations, and never left me stranded on the side of the trail (side of the road is a different story, lol). In the end I figured after 20 years it was time. No more white knuckling it barreling down the I-17 hills / curves. 😶 And that clutch.....won't miss that thing a bit, lol. At least I never had any incidents on the trail.....oh wait...... 😬 Edited September 15 by gearhead 4 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dzJeepChic 2,925 Posted September 15 Oh, @gearhead!! That must've been a rough task, getting rid of your Jeep. It about ripped my heart out when I sold Clifford, and I was all the way down in Mexico when the final transaction went down. I feel for ya buddy! What a loyal machine yours was, too; frickin' invincible. I hope you can still get out to explore some way. And Karen's right - DON'T BE A STRANGER. Remember this is your family here! BTW, I we planted a little peach tree and I named it Gear after you. ;) 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shellback91 2,332 Posted September 18 I am happy and sad for you at the same time Mike. That Jeep will be missed! I'm looking forward to seeing what your next rig will be. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
