I've come to the conclusion that wheeling my Grand Wagoneer is not only detrimental to my Wallet, but also detrimental to my health and the well being of others.

Yes, they look pretty awesome and I'd love to get a set, but I simply cannot justify spending money on my Grand Wagoneer at the moment when there are other material objects that are much higher in priority.

holy fuck phil, you depress me soooo fucking much

you love that goddamn thing, i know you do. You should be wheeling it, and you know that too. Fucking motor swap and wheel the beast. a carb'ed 350 really won't cost you that much. and it would be sooooooo cool, cooler than anything. maybe as cool as owen's willy, maybe.....

but seriously, i want to see that waggy come to life. I am again volunteering my time and efforts for free to help you get it done

PLEASE PHIL PLEASE, if not for me, do it for yourself

Zullo, You must understand and I told you last night, I'm a Realist and a Pessimist by Nature. Optimism only comes in small doses here and there but rarely accounts for much.

The Grand Wagoneer will not be wheeled anymore. It was a pipe dream to begin with and it showed its true colors the last time it was wheeled. The Vehicle itself is too large and completely incapable without a complete suspension overhaul. It was designed as a Luxury Vehicle and that's what I'm going to keep it as. I have a wheeling vehicle, My XJ, and it does everything I want it to do except roll over and be fine, but it's smaller, capable and proves itself time and time again. The Wagoneer has proven itself to not only be completely unreliable, but a dastardly waste of funds, funds that can be put wisely into the XJ in the form of Armor and general upkeep.

I will never get rid of the Grand Wagoneer, though, because you're right, I love it. It's a fun vehicle to drive and that's where it ends. When it gets fixed, it will be used as a Weekend Warrior, hitting the means streets of Fairfield on the days it decides to start. Its ability to comfortably sit 5 people is a plus, as well as the delightful leather and plush interior, but there in itself proves that this vehicle was not designed for the terrain that the North East has to offer.

A Motor swap or 500 horsepower will not change my views nor will it persuade me to drag the vehicle 400 miles away just to take a chance on it not coming home under its own power.
