i wouldnt mind a jeep in the driveway, but the used pricees are insane! you pay alot for the 'brand'.

what jeep owners say: thats why you buy one, itll hold value!

what that really means: you pay more for one to start with, so the resale value being higher is a moot point. the car costs you the same, the initial investment is just higher.

My Dad bought his as a callback to his time in the service like 15 years ago before the "Jeep tax" really took over.

It was Jade green, which is a kind of like it or hate it color:

(not mine, but looked pretty similar minus the lift)

My brother drove it with the oil light on after I had passed it down to him and the motor seized.

It was weird. There were 3 of them in Appleton for a period of time. One guy was right down the road from us, too.

Maybe they are part of that BMW's of Wisconsin group that the one guy was starting a few years ago. What ever happened to that guy?
