Ah. Another reason why I dislike custom plates.

He should’ve turned off the wipers..

Every time I think about how much fun it would be to run an old Jeep like this, I sit back and think about how much work it takes just to keep them running. If I wasn’t living vicariously through David...who knows, maybe I’d actually go out and get one.

Everyone (including myself) loves to give you shit for this project, but props for getting it going and actually undertaking this epic roadtrip in an epic shitbox. True Jalop spirit.

David, No joke everything I do at work grinds to a halt so I can read anything you post. This is good Jalopnik, and the urgency of a deadline really does keep me coming back every week.

I care. So you’re wrong.

I just assumed it was because all these kids and their newfangled “STANCEBRO” cars influencing train design. Thomas chuffed off to the Staceworks where Victor was fabricating some dope-ass spacers for the narrow-gauge steamies to roll up out the quarry. “Noice!” said Rheneas.

Get the hell out of Mexico before that wall goes up!

(Not so) grounded to the ground.

Honestly, I’m shocked when I see an explorer without this crack.
