Sweet, now a NEW Warn winch 'just in case' you get into a pickle....

Oh yeah. Or he go full military and get a wheel winch. No pulling off bumpers that way.

Plastic bumper doesn't rust. I also ordered some recovery boards, 30' line and some 3/4"shackles. Should be adequate for trips to the gas station and occasional shopping

W124s are more or less bomb proof. Of course your old is still running around. They're like the Toyota Hilux of German cars. 

I’m thinking I need another. Dirt cheap and as obnoxious as hell. They’re sloooow, and the black trail they leave behind them looks like a 1963 Sud Caravelle on takeoff. 
They TOTALLY piss off the greenies in a way that simple words and a lifted modern 4x4 will never do. 
And then, mention to the morally offended how it’s basically an improved version of the first diesel that Mercedes started producing in 1934, and the insanely anal tweed wearing college prof types will immediately lose shit. 
OH how I do love to screw with the minds of people who can be easily screwed with. 🤣

I don’t create trouble and mayhem, but setting up the conditions where moral mayhem can flourish is always a fun sport when you’re bored. 
If they’re too dang nosey to mind their own business, I’m too childish to let such perfect opportunities go totally to waste.

Just watch out for those pesky rock obstacles they like to put in mall parking lots.

Hey Gary, I have a Jeep too.

Cheers Rob

and yes I have owned a few of these over the years………nothing fancy just a heritage of 67 years 8 months and 30 days and still going strong. Please do not even mention the pretender Defender they have replaced it with………

Land Rovers are awesome, few years back while camping in BC we met this British couple on their trip around the world. Nice folks

oh no...   Here...   I'll try to make up for it...

You'll have to let me know your preference of hood ornament for future usage.

So  @DocRob, Do you like dirty jeep?

Or clean Jeep?

You are as resourceful as Martin, with a slight bias tough, Gary .

[GazzaS]

Bias?

They're as bad as the moose in some parts of the country. If you're not paying attention they just jump right out at you. Thankfully that looks like it wasn't a self-cleaning oven one. Those ones can cause real damage.
