HA! I was thinking the same thing... he is getting his West Coast operations underway so he can start to concentrate on his Global ambitions of taking over the ENTIRE Jeep world.

Ha ha u guys are too much. Problem is, I don't sell them. These are solid trucks that don't exist on the east coast and while out here for the wrecker how can i pass up trucks like these for little over scrap value ?

Yes I have the itch. Real bad. I keep telling myself damn.. Another one ? But each one is unique, different, and comes with a story. So I don't see an end to this anytime soon. And I'll let ya all in on part of the problem. When I had 50x150 feet of land , my collection was about 10 jeeps, and half at a local storage place. Then 3 years ago I bought 9 acres that came with several garages and storage trailers. Now I am over 30 jeeps.

Waking up this morning for the last day at my uncles. I bought my uncles truck officially and also a dolly here in Sacramento. My friend George is gonna dolly the wrecker home. We will give it a good road test today but its actually the only one with really good rear tires and good spare too. If all goes well i will have the whole mess sitting in Jersey by Tuesday. His route is entirely I-80 so reach out if u have parts or need parts moved.

I fly out tonight on a red eye. Soon we are returning the uhaul, going to JW, checking out a sportside nearby, and picking up the dolly.

I also do this for these reasons, too :

Sunset yesterday :

Too bad you're not making the drive back - there's a little brewery called Bitter Creek Brewing in Rock Springs, Wyoming (off of I80) I found on my trip.

AH-HEM. (clears throat loudly)

Alaska is part of the North American continent. I frequently have to remind companies that shipping to Alaska is not as difficult or impossible as they believe.
 
Passed on the other sportside. Then had a good stop at JW jeep, filled the bed of the new truck with some parts, and headed to town to get the oil changed and truck serviced for the ride to NJ.

All in Sacramento :

You are correct. There are not enough characters allowed in the signature block though to list em all. But with this thread ill list some more from the road trips I did in the past that I didn't post about.

George is in salt like city area:

And I am in boring jersey recovering from a red eye flight and less than a week to get ready for Bantam Jeep Fest.
 
Is the first truck the one you bought from your uncle? I was just under the assumption that your uncle also had a Jeep truck a J20 or something...I figured it was in the genes :)

I bought my uncles 03 silverado which be bought new here in jersey and then he moved to Sacramento in 04. He doesn't use it anymore much but the biggest problem is it would cost alot to smog it there as it doesn't have the calif emissions on it. Which made it difficult to sell there too. It's been on nj plates the whole time but the registration ran out in 09 so he kinda shouldn't be using it. So the deal worked out well. I have had my eye on it for a few years.

Update: The wrecker and said Chevy just crossed into Iowa
 
Is that you're uncle's place in Sacramento? It looks awesome!
 
Yeah it's a old river house on the Sacramento River from about 1890.

George is near Gary Indiana now. Had to replace both tires on the dolly but otherwise making good time.
 
George is in Pennsylvania now.

He doesn't take nearly as many pics as I do :rolleyes:

Was that a rental dolly? If so, that seems kind of odd that they would be so worn.
