I loved my last XJ and paid $1,900 for it with 178k miles. A/C compressor did not work but it needed nothing else. The price on that one seems pretty steep even with the mods. As a reference I paid $2500 for my 92 Land Cruiser with 226k miles and it had almost new 33" BFG A/T's on it, no rust...
That's a great spot! If I had not moved to CO then Asheville would have been my spot. Love it out there. Spent a lot of time touring with my band through NC in the mountains. It is a great place.
Yep. It's the Blackbird XLC with a 0 degree Wookie under quilt. Like sleeping on a cloud. So good. I'll check out Walhalla. It's always fun to try out different stuff. My partner and I did not hammock camp nearly as much this year because we started sleeping in the land cruiser over multi day...
Thanks! It's a great ride for sure. I'm in Boulder County, Colorado. That pic is from a neighborhood about 8 miles up a local canyon. There was a house next door with that view. Colorado is hard to beat for great riding and views.
I enjoyed a 1997 Jeep Cherokee for a bit a couple years back and averaged about 18mpg. It was very capable, had great power, and was very reliable with the 4.0 straight 6. The square shape was great and could hold a ton of stuff. The should be available anywhere for 5k or under.
16" outside of Boulder, CO. Was a blast plowing the Cruiser through unplowed streets. Unfortunately the boss waited until I was already at work to tell me not to come in :neutral:
We sleep differently depending on the trip. When stationary in the woods hammocks are the go to. When out exploring it's the memory foam mattress in the back of the Land Cruiser. Both set ups are hard to beat.
The way I deal with discontent with my vehicles is to pay $2500 or less then sell it if I don't like it and buy something else. I'm settled in now with my '92 Cruiser and plan on hanging on to it for the long term. Prior to that, though, I owned about 16 cars in the last 5 years. It's been a lot...
Rough calculation (divide miles on trip odo by total gallons I put in the take at fill up) for my 92 Landcruiser on 33's as 11.2mpg. I drive the automatic like a manual to be able to get my 0-60 distance to less than 2 miles so that probably has an effect :sunglasses:
