    Lots of dust and custom dents, Check Build
    I got one for free from my coworker last winter. It had a warped head, which was their fault, but working on it didn't seem overly complicated. We also did a bunch of regular maintenance like bushing, shocks, CVs, etc.

    Gave it to my dad, who's put 20k miles on it without issue. Currently at 200k. He's super cheap, and always runs regular gas. Never had a problem, even considering the turbo, and gets high 20s mpg.

    I wouldn't hesitate to buy another Volvo. It's also one of the most comfortable vehicles to ride in I've ever been it.

    No Dodge! Unless it's one of those AEV ones for an extended trial period.

    This place is awesome... Utah, not the city.

    I've traveled 20k, and passed up some stuff that I can put on next trips. But I'm about to go explore a canyon. Glad I'll be closer!

    Yeah, I was just wondering if you posted a picture of the Skelton you have left now.

    Here she is!

    The stock seat makes me laugh... Floppy mess compared to a real seat with bolsters.

    Rides about 2" higher it seems, should've measured.

    Kings, winch and front skid are only large aftermarket mods things left. Lots of un-wiring and stuff to do.
