Good reference, Sam! Poor pup. Why the sale? Just not using it? Not expecting anyone to invade Dayton anytime soon?

Congrats on the sale! Glad the shipping worked out for you.

Cheers

Dave - we still used it (not as much as in AZ with all of the wonderful off-road opportunities). But, we have planned for a few years to get my wife, Lori, her long held wish which is to have a vintage Geländewagen. BTW, these “G” wagens are made in the same factory in Graz Austria (Arnie’s home town) as our Pinzgauer (similar genetics). With a/c these G’s will give us four season use and with the 5 speed and rear gearing will allow us to cruise at highway speeds for weekend jaunts.

Also digging the legendary durability with a Mercedes bullet-proof diesel backed by a 5 speed manual and stellar 4x4 off-road capability with locking diffs. Something like this.....

( Am always ready for the BIG invasion! )

Awesome. We still miss Cubby, too!

When I was stationed in W. Berlin very early 80's a buddy of mine was in the USMLM in Potsdam. They used the G-Wagons.

Parkbrau - Capable/durable lil' b*stards! Looks like you stayed on in DE. Of course Stuttgart is a nice area (reminds me of Pittsburgh some).
