    True,but with those at least the electronics can be swapped out(spark plugs,wires,distributor cap/rotor) easily.

    I seen a picture of that and was impressed at how it looked. You could keep the electric lawnmower motor though. Those trucks shone brightly with the 429 and 460.

    The place I work at is paying $15000 over new sticker price for used 2 door broncos.

    I drove 100 miles to buy a new Jeep because the used ones are selling for more.

    they can keep it. it's like the ammo prices. a shortage of ammo, and crack heads pay for the higher priced ammo.

    this keeps the prices up, and the demand even more so.

    boycott the car dealers that are jacking up prices. let them suffer, and hopefully close up.

    give in to them, then the buyer DESERVES to get screwed, cuz when it's time to trade or sell those cars/trucks at those jack up prices.>??

    the market will be flooded with good used cars, at the normal retail prices.....meaning a very big loss, which first, includes the depreciation when driven off the lot..>!!!!!

    at that price, one can buy a Land Rover, or decked out Jeep, or nearly anything else, that is tried and proven, over a brand new product, with unknown dependability.

    I think I'll just put a windshield in my '97 station wagon instead when the time comes.
