Kyburz Flat & Wheeler Sheep Camp - Last Run B4 Selling It

[VC Highlander]

I just love the Wheeler Sheep Camp out on Kyburz Flat. On weekday's I often find that I am the only rig out there.

Here are pics from my final trail ride in this rig as I will be moving to the Bay Area & need to sell it due to I have nowhere to park a second vehicle.

It's going to be hard to let her go.

Looks beautiful. Sorry you’re moving to that shithole.

Yeah, the Bay is a challenge. However, I will be in Marin & close to an exit out towards Point Reyes Station. I'd keep it if I had a second parking spot. Lot's of logging roads up the northern coast.

I want to list it for sale here on Wayalife but I'm not sure if I have been active enough to allow a for sale post in the For Sale threads.

Here's my old JEEP right off the boat when I moved back to the Bay from Maui in 2012. You may have seen my Maui thread.

ON THE MAUI TRAIL: South Road to Hana in Stock 2000 TJ

Yesterday I did some Show & Tell about my brand new 2000 TJ in Colorado : https://www.wayalife.com/threads/pearl-pass-crested-butte-co-to-summit-in-stock-2000-tj.65649/ Well, my JEEP has been everywhere man! In 2010 I moved to Maui. And yes, I shipped my trusty 2000 TJ to the island! Here is a...

Too bad you have to sell such a clean TJ. You'll have no trouble selling it though and hopefully you can pick up another sooner rather than later.

Sorry that you have to sell it… hopefully it will go to a good home!

Rent a storage unit to park your Jeep in.

If I could afford it, I would. With today's fuel costs I have to keep my economy car. I'd rather sell it & keep the JEEP but, as we all know, the fuel efficiency is lacking & I just can't afford to make it my daily in the Bay Area.

It seems like madness to sell such a sweet Jeep, and to earn such a piddling amount compared with the extreme cost of living in the bay area. You will never get it back. Lost forever. Much better to keep it in storage, far away, nearer where you would like to be driving it. Then go drive it every few weeks.

 

[GP NOIR]

You don’t have to use your TJ as a daily, but I can tell you from experience, you will deeply regret selling it.

GOOD NEWS! I found a friend who will let me park it along the side of his house! It will be miles away but won't have to pay for storage, just CA Registration which I can handle. Storage costs would have been hundreds a month!

My Bay Area mechanic, who I've known for 40 years, and now owns my old JEEP seen here: https://www.wayalife.com/threads/ky...mp-last-run-b4-selling-it.65743/#post-1365824 agrees with you!

I do have one JEEP part to sell that doesn't fit a TJ but a JK and I'm not sure if I have been active enough here to post it in the For Sale threads. It's an underseat lockbox that came with this JEEP brand new in the box. I'm getting no hits on craigslist. I guess I could try listing it and see what happens.

 

[VC Highlander]

Oh well, I have the "You have insufficient privileges to post threads here." message at the bottom of the For Sale thread still. I guess since I'm no longer selling the JEEP, I will have to take it out on the trail this week, take pics, and do some more show & tell activity here at Wayalife before I move away from the Sierra's!

Hopefully the odometer won't go up too quickly while it is at your friend's house for "storage".

Yeah it is very clean & only 87k miles. But since I posted this thread, I have had a change of heart thanks to the Wayalife folks. I'm keeping it! WOO HOO!

Good choice
