Now, OJ, I'm vintage 1943.

The Jeep I remember most was a 1947 Willys Jeep. We had it until I was almost a teenager. Recently in a camping memories thread elsewhere I wrote this.

My other memory of one of those trips has to be an imagined one. You see, I was asleep in the passenger seat of the Jeep, but there was no door on that side. My father had intended to stop and wake me before we got on the bridge*, but he missed the stop. He told many times how scared he was that I might wake up crossing that bridge. That seat cushion was a 15" square. Every time he told that story I imagined how I must have been curled up there - was my head on the inside or.....

* at least 2 miles long crossing the Chesapeake Bay.

Hmmm LK. I'm a '48 model. Same year they started making Holdens in this country.
I've had numerous Jeeps across the years and they have all served me well.
Current is XJ Cherokee (hers) ZJ Grand Chreokee (mine) and a 1982 Cherokee Sportsman on 33" tyres with mods. (project rig?)

My biggest regret is selling my CJ10 trayback....

cheers

My mother-in-law fell down a wishing well, I was amazed. I never knew they worked.

One thing I noticed when I was in the US was that everything is much bigger over there, particularly your cars and RV's.

Petrol was also much cheaper. Here where I live I am paying around $1.42 a litre for petrol. Thats somewhere around $6.30 a gallon. Hence we don't have the big vehicles with big motors.

By the way, it isn't all flat. This is me standing on top of the highest peak in Australia in the Snowy Mountains. It is only 7310 feet high though. Not like some of yours. That was a trek of 18 kilometers I did this year as one of those things I always wanted to do.
