1. Isn't this more of a GD topic?
I hear they love SUVs there.

2. My asbestos suit is at the dry cleaners, so I thought it best not to go there without protection

4. I love the Rio Grande Jeep Wranglers.
Tan body with brown soft/hard top. I've been shopping for one that's in good shape and relatively low mileage. But being on the coast makes it really difficult. Everybody snatches them up before I even see the ad. Oh well.

I needn't complain - I have plenty of fun in my Formula. :)

7. Mine is an '02 Sport, white.
But ever since that 4 door came out, I've been SO wanting to make the upgrade.... :9

6. We bought a CRV new in '97. The kids drive it, now. We replaced it with a Pilot last year!

9. Your kids? Hot damn, tamale....
your kids are old enough to drive? Sheesh....from your pictures I thought you were my age.

Maybe all that freakin snow over there is preserving your skin tone. :)

And the 4-door is SWEET, btw. Just curious - what volume speaker system do those models offer? :P

10. Truth be told, my daughter is 20 and my son is 18 (my son is currently in seclusion
at an undisclosed location until that corrupting TZ leaves town!) :rofl:

I do have the sound bar in my current Jeep, but I think to do the job properly, one needs to go after-market! With lift kit! :9

14. Egad! Well, she is safely off at college, so the threat level is blue there
Which makes me think that I need to call the Witness Protection Program and ask about available plans....

:D

19. Actually, I love the green version of the Pilot; it was my first choice (overridden)
Black is very cool. B-) Tinted windows? If so, you would be like a secret service soccer mom! :rofl:

11. Guilty


But in my defense, I hunt, fish, canoe, raft and ski and go places where I need 4WD. And if I fold down the back seats, I can just fit my telescope.

lift kit. :popcorn: :hi:

20. That's not mine
Mine is very close to it but not lifted. Slightly different roof rack, one I can attach my ski rack to. But usually the skis go in the back. I hate when they get gunked up with road grime.

21. Unfortunately no

That one isn't mine, I wish it were. I had two of them up until I had to seel them back about mid '02, but neither was that nice. I had a WWII model that I was in the process of bringing back to life and a '51 civilian model that looked pretty rough but ran really well.

I miss them :(
