Thanks for all the kind words Jim and everyone else
I'd say I'm going to miss you too, BUT I WONT,
Ok ok I'm kidding what I mean is I'll still be around
OR SOMETHING.....
Give me a few hours and "maybe" I'll be able to explain more, but I may have just got screwed out of "plan B". &@^$%*@(&$^%@*$&^%@$(

Either way unfortunately my truck has been paid in full, I have the money in hand and I wont drive it other than picking him up at the airport tommorrow night. Matt (thats his name) is getting a AWESOME DEAL, an AWESOME TRUCK, and he'll be VERRY HAPPY with it. I sold it for $23,500.00

As for being happy with my choices, NO I CANT SAY I AM
BUT you know there are wants, and then needs.
Im obligated to buy a new Vehicle every three years due to a 400.00+ monthly allowance I get at work for my vehicle. I got away with the L for some years but they were never happy about it. I shut them up by buying the Mitsiwhateverthehellitwas but now that is gone too, and in a few weeks it would offically be 4yrs old and not exceptable in their eyes. Strangley enough just today I got the letter from my Corporate Headquarters asking for my NEW Information and copy's of the insurance Policy, so the Jeep was a great move, I'M SUPER HAPPY WITH IT and it'll shut them up another 3 or 4 years.

In the mean time I found myself with 8-9K burning a hole in my pocket and just had to spend it on something else ; o )
TO BE CONTINUED......

Pardon me for being the devil's advocate here, but based on what I've read on these forums for the past year or so, one would think you'd use that extra cash to pay down some of your debt................................

But, what do I know ???? I've never seen an armored car following a hearse, so it must be true that you can't take it with you.............

I sold mine for $34,500
I kept my Bogarts too. So I actually got $36,000 for it(not counting a few other things I still have to sell as well).
Selling these trucks for such stupid cheap money is just hurting everyone else on resale values.
Granted Rob's truck wasn't a $36,000 truck, it also was/is a bit more than a $23,500 truck. -Mat-

They are only worth what the market will bear. $34,500 for a used L I say you found a sucker.

yea Rob took a hit on the sale, we all know that, but he was able to sell the truck quickly and pick up 23.5K which will pay for the most of the current mods he made, 2 motors ect..., Rob can awnser this better than me but I don't think it ever met his expectations, read the past posts one problem after another, plugs cooking, tossed motor, valve springs, tuning issues the list goes on and on, always reaching for a little more only to be disappointed with the results, I hope the Jeep treats him right and meets all his expectations, as frustrating as it was reading his post sometimes the forums been a bit boring without the Robo's Woo Hoo's for the past few days.
