Incredibly imaginative, ain't it

Truck or Rover, my wife hates it when i call it a truck. We had wanted a rover for quite a while and now that we have one it miffs her that i call it a truck and not a rover..

 

[Series1Rangie]

1971 Series IIA is Beaker (after the Muppet)
1981 2DR RRC is Myles (The previous owner was a professional wrestler "Miles Long Beaver Hunter" but Miles Long, didn't go over well with the GF)

Sometimes the Series or the Rangie. There have been enough that saying the green one or the 109 isn't specific enough. the only one that managed to be called something simple like that is "the 80" (80" SI).

Never Never Jeep

Mike and Myles

[aka rover]

Its funny how people get upset when a Rover is refered to as a Jeep, but the only people who would call it a Jeep doesnt know the difference, so who cares?

Rover or Jeep who cares there both piles of crap in stock form

95' D1 5-Speed= "Roscoe". I let the wife name it. I figured that if she named it she would be more tolerant of the $$ and time that would go in to it.
