As I posted on BaT, makes new trucks look like wimps  ;D

As a kid our family car was a newly-bought '74 Cherokee (yes, I'm old  :-\ ). Always loved these trucks, tough and purposeful.

I’m old too.  My best friend’s family had a ‘77 Wagoneer, just like this one.
I'd rather be car-poor than house-poor...

Ours looked a lot like this one, same blue but two-tone with white roof. Base model, same stripe, but white background. Same wheel covers. 360 2-barrel, quadra-trac, no frills - black vinyl interior, no a/c or nothing else. I think it got 8 mpg around town, but it was unstoppable in the snow. When snow crews would push snow into a central snow bank for snowblower removal, my Dad would jump through these snowbanks for fun!

It's called the Mega Cruiser...when a Land Cruiser isn't enough!

7" taller and 16" longer than Hummer! 17" ground clearance. Because of a sort of rear steer, turning radius is only 18 feet.

Saw that on Barnfinds. Not in a barn though, probably the bottom of a saltwater lake. And it runs.
