Just like rabbits
« on: August 07, 2011, 04:01:01 PM »
About seven years ago I bought a Cherokee sport to use as a back up vehicle to pull the boat when my wife was travelling in the suburban, soon my son decide that he needed to drive the jeep cause it was cooler then a Malibu.  Three years ago I bought my 3A so I could work on it fix it up, finally got it running and well last fall my dad said to me "there is a nice M38A1 in Michigan, why don't you go make a deal on that and bring it home for me...  Two weeks ago we were having a family reunion in the black hills of south Dakota, driving the jeep and messing around.  I took my brother and his seven year old son for a ride... guess what, my brother just called, he is towing home a 1981 CJ seven.  And his son is just plain crazy about it.  Next week we are going to have a jeep rodeo at dads.  These jeeps need to get to know each other.  Is this normal jeep behavior, or do we need a doctor...

Sounds normal to me ;D. I mean, who could hate a Jeep? I have loved them since WWII. You wouldn't believe how many Jeeps are here in Spencer Co. Ky, new and old.

We all need a Doctor. Most of us use Dr. 3A. but any doctor with the word CJ, Jeep, Willys, M, G, Cherokee, or numbers, like 3, 5, 6, 7, 38,or the like in his name, would probably be qualified to diagnose and treat idiots that insist on throwing good money after bad. If you go to the wrong Dr. (perhaps one that begins with Mrs. or wife, etc.) they will sometimes suggest that it is not a good thing to throw good money after bad. Jim

Jeeps are like potato chips. It's hard to stop at just one!
