I mean I guess if your job is to roam around iceland looking for new place to drill oil wells? lol....but to biking for the afternoon at chimney rock, seems like a tad bit of overkill.

I'm thinking a used military Oshkosh LVSR 10x10 from Govplanet with a prefab 2' container tiny house locked onto the claw (LVSR's are container haulers) would put the Earthroamer to shame. How dope would this look at the trailhead with a OD green painted 1-up rack on the back. 😆 😆

Boondocking at a walmart with this thing would be a blast!

Son is in Paris with GF, who is there for work for fashion week. Spotted this art car on display. E9 CSL is one of my favorite Bimmers. Back when BMW made beautiful cars.

Box flares and BBS's, a timeless combo!

The money you save vs buying an earthroamer buys a lot of diesel... 😉

I would like everyone to know I've had the Maverick for 2 years as of yesterday. I've gone over 700 days without purchasing a car! Friends say no way I make 3 years.

I shocked myself. In the pic above, you can see the small piece of PPF on the door edge. More visible with salt on the leading edge of the PPF. That saved me a trip to Ford to yell about trade in value, discounts, etc etc.

im wondering if you have been abducted by aliens and replaced by one, 2 years is an eternity for you to go without buying a car.

I'm on a fixed income lol

 

[Santapez]

I'm on a fixed income lol

I always found that to be an odd term.

I'm paid a salary, my employment income is fixed.

Maybe I'll get a raise but it's pretty definite you'll get COL increases?

Big Chris Christie removed cost of living increases in 2011 as part of his Chapter 78 revisions. As of now, no COLA. It will likely come back in the next 3-5 years, but under a revised schedule. Rumor is 10 years retired AND at least 55 years old AND COLA only on the first $75,000 of your pension.

Damn, and I thought the brewery law changes he made were the only good thing he accomplished.
