Sold my `89 Jeep Wrangler less than a year after I bought it. I sold it for $50 more than what I paid for it, and I added about $600 in parts and put maybe 300 miles on it.
Just Empty Every Pocket is accurate...
I bought it because I thought it would be a fun second vehicle that I could use to explore the Idaho back country.
What I discovered is that the Idaho back country is gated off, so any vehicle over 50" wide is useless, and I could get everywhere that wasn't gated in a mildly lifted SUV.
I also discovered that without the hard top and just the bikini top and half doors, it was a blast when it was above 70 degrees. But if I drove it back home after dark, even in the middle of summer, I would freeze my backside off.
And I just didn't trust it to get me out of the woods every time.
So now I have no idea what I'll replace it with. Think I may just stick to hiking and my little pontoon boat for the rest of the summer.
Heading out tomorrow to go tent camp on the Couer D'alene river for a couple of days and fish for cutthroat trout with my brother and some friends.
I'm going to miss my little Jeep, oddly enough...
