Holy....

Well, I hope you like off-roading! Way to go. This is a great time to buy a new/pretty new vehicle.

If it's the latter, then you have no choice. Go for it. But if you're anything like me, you can't be completely sure it's not the former.

I still hope to one day ( ) own property in northern New England/Quebec. When I (we) do, I'll get a used Khaki Rubicon to have fun with up there.

Wow. Congrats. Did you READ the name of this forum? That is not anything close to waffling (and I assume perseverators has something to do with waffling).

Have fun with the hills. And the rocks. And the trees. And the mods.

Awesome Archer, congrats!

Let's see some pics. And the fenders better be covered with globs of mud.
