My J10 put up with all the stuff I threw in it as well. I moved all our furniture and other belongings in it from old place to new, and hauled off a LOT of loads of brush, leaves, and pine needles to slash.

Happy new years guys

The Cherk held up another to another year of my abuse. Only thing I really did to it all year was beat the crap out of it and change the rear axle bearings.

I bought the Wag in '11. Only drove the J10 to move it to my new location. I should be putting the tons under it within a month. Then I just need brake lines, drive lines and a few odds/ends to have it back on the road.

edit: The KJ will also be paid off in '12 so I will have more to dump into the FSJ habit!

I got back into FSJ's for 2011 and didn't have to call AAA once! Here's to hoping 2012 is just as good.

If you can't make it better why waste your time. No use repeating the orignal mistakes. I'm to old to push it that's why.

Happy New year to all!

Another year gone, engine smokes more than ever, killed another radiator, restoration still hasn't begun, bashed up the front end a little.

On the other side the truck has wheeled through everything I asked it to, went to a ton of Jeep events, make lots of progress on the Mustang, got engaged to the GF (BattlewagonNJ), and my back hasn't gone out in a longggggg time.

I'll call it a great year.

When all you do is sit in it and make motor sounds, no wonder you don't have to call AAA
