As an example of why people like Jeeps, the pic below is of my dad's Jeepster he bought soon after returning from Germany at the end of WWII. Dad took the pic and that's mom with the Jeep.

Just for the sake of posting off-road pics this is one of my son in his Ultra4 buggy cresting a 30' vertical rock wall. This thing was 800 horse rear engine, all hand built insanity. You see, we are truly an off-road family and we all love our guns.

Hey All,
My jeep. Nothin special 2010 wrangler 2 door sport that I dearly luv even though it eats oil. My other loved 4x4 is a 1990 3/4 ton 2 door Dodge Cummins diesel now a resto project. Bought it when I had cattle. Both are manuals.
Very first vehicle I ever drove that was not a farm tractor was my grandfathers mid 50s cj5. I was 10. Took a long time to get back to jeep but I'm there.

I used to have a Suzuki Samurai and I still regret I sold it.
I have made some nice trips with this mini-jeep.
In Echternach in Luxembourg
Somewhere in Germany

My first Jeep was a 1953 CJ3B I restored long ago.
It is now owned by a friends' son in Eastern Oregon.
I also had a '53 CJ3B. That was back in the mid 70's and it was my only rig. It did have a heater, not sure if it was oem or put in by a previous owner, no defroster though. only other mods other than a engine rebuild were bigger brakes and a electric wiper on the drivers side.
Did you have to hold the shifter to keep it from popping out of 2nd gear? Local jeep mechanic told me it could be fixed but would start popping out again in a couple of thousand miles so I just learned to live with it.

I do not recall this ever being a problem.
It's been a while myself but I would have remembered this.
Mine was pretty tight and ran well.
