I was having a summer daydream yesterday looking at Jeeps. There are many I immediately skip by thinking "dorked out" meaning its jacked up and painted neon green. Why are so many Jeeps painted neon green? I was surprised how reasonably I could get a decent CJ5 that wasn't dorked out. A CJ7 in reasonable shape is around $9000, a CJ5 is "only" around $6000. Thats one with no rust that runs and drives with a nice interior... I don't think I'm really going to get one any time in the near future. If the company stock keeps going up maybe next year I'll invest in another bay for my garage which would give me some "toy keeping space" which would allow for something like a toy Jeep to stay out of the weather. I'd love to build a CJ3b or CJ5 with the engine from my Jetta. Stage 2 chip in the engine with upgraded injectors should make 120hp, 288lb/ft. With a 5spd it'd be a pretty fun ride. Have to gear it appropriately of course and a CJ5 would be much more street-able. 31" tires, selectable locker front and rear for real offroad performance... Ahh the summer daydream, even if it is only springtime. -Curt From: G Mann via Mercedes <mercedes@okiebenz.com> To: Mercedes Discussion List <mercedes@okiebenz.com> Cc: G Mann <g2ma...@gmail.com> Sent: Friday, May 15, 2015 3:15 PM Subject: Re: [MBZ] My eyes!!!!
