Yep, I bought the LJ for just that reason. The TJ is too small and the JK Unlimited is a bus.

This thread is no longer relevant. There is now a Silver FJ parked in my driver way. I can only hope, and pray my trusty Jeep's new owner has as much fun with it as I did. She will be missed lots.

I guess I should have put up and explination hu? :D Family space was a big factor Ollie, but not the only one. With a lot of my driving going toward expedition and multi day vehicle camping the Rubi was lacking as an adequate platform in terms of what I wanted in a truck. When I bought the Jeep I really didn't know much about Overland Driving and stuff. I just wanted a good truck that could go anywhere with a tent in the back. After meeting Ralphie a few years ago and discovering a new world of wilderness exploration I soon realized where my Jeep was lacking. It needed space, and security. There were a few options I had been thinking about for a while, Adventure trailer (or similar), Taco with flip-pac, FZJ, FJC. Of all of them the FJC was the one I have seen the most first hand what it can hanndle in terms of trails, and gear. I have always been impressed with what you guys have done (Ralphie, Ollie, Larry, and so on), so really... it is all you FJ guys fault the Rubicon is gone! :lol: However, if there had of been an Unlimited Rubicon, or a Taco on the lot at the time that met my specs it would be in the driveway!

Or maybe I'm just getting old... :lol:

I'll have another Jeep someday, but it will only be for the Hammers.
