Jeep = gone.

I've thought of parting with my '93 GC Limited for quite some time now, I have no use for the 4WD as I'm no longer able to walk more than a few feet and I'm afraid to go off road for fear of a breakdown, even a flat is now beyond my ability to repair. I get around by mobility scooter now and I kept the Jeep because I liked it and because it had a lift on the back which made hauling my scooter easier but I wanted a van to allow me to keep the scooter inside.

So, the Jeep is gone and I have a van.

I guess I'm gone as well, it's been fun, sort of, and very educational.

I credit this group with teaching me all about score files and kill files, I never would have learned if not for a few very obnoxious people here and, believe it or not, I'm grateful to them for forcing me to learn.

So take care, I'll check in from time to time to see if things get any better in the future.

Well, Billie finally has one thing to his credit, then.

Who'da ever thunk it, eh?

Damn! Sorry to hear it.

How did you end up in a scooter, and worst of all a van?

"Arthritic degeneration of the lumbar spine" is the official diagnosis, it started very mildly in my early twenties, became painful in my fifties and semi-crippling in my seventies. I guess that's why they call arthritis a progressive disease? It's progressed steadily over the years...

That's a damn shame. I'd have never thought you to be old enough for that, *grin*, here EVERYONE looks like a young pup.

I'm sad to think that you can't go play with your Jeep any more, but hey, don't be a stranger. Maybe you can live vicariously through some of the stories and lies that get swapped around in here.

Thanks, I'm 72 but most people tell me I don't look much more than 71

1/2.....

I haven't played with my Jeep for years, I'm always afraid of a problem that can't be fixed with roadside assistance and a cell phone. In the summertime in Arizona, even a flat tire could be fatal if I couldn't call someone so it's done duty as a scooter carrier only for years and it deserves better, I think.

Nobody here would say anything that wasn't so, would they? ;-)

Wanna see a neat gadget?
