"Moved on to something different..."

4-wheelin? Its a lot of fun. In fact it suprised me how you can have as much fun going 1-mph as you can at 100, only its a lot more technical crawling over rocks.

I gave up jeeping after building up a beautiful '73 CJ-5 to the max then years later nearly rolling it off a trail and down a 300-500 foot embankment. Too scary.

That became the beginning of the end. Plus, as built as it was the V-8 only got 7 mpg!

Up till the end, it sure was fun though.

Checkout Jeep Jamboree USA's website. They sponsor excellent events all over the country. I highly recommend them.

Good luck and have fun!
