Too bad I am in Seattle, I would take out a loan for that one.

Have it shipped. Or better yet, there are drive-a-way services. I got a lifted Discovery driven from PA to WA for about $700.
Heck, in a month, I'll drive it back for ya if you fly me out there.

HOLY!! WHAT THE!?!?! Expedia says it's $164 for a one way ticket, non-stop flight from SEA-Boston on March 3rd!! dang! I'll gladly go get it for you!

[adrenaline503]

Yea, I would have to try to sell my Nissan too.

[Funrover]

That would be a prayer answered Man I wish!

Then sell it. :)

I have a friend who bought a RHD 6 cylinder Land Rover Dormobile in New Hampshire for about $4000 more than this one is being offered for. His introduction to the vehicle was when he and his family took possession and drove it home to Sacramento Ca.

[Hltoppr]

Buy it and drive it home....how cool!!

-H-

[kcowyo]

Wow, what an opportunity. I'm just here to drool....:drool:

[Andrew Walcker]

Man, that is a dream vehicle! Let's see, go to bank and get cashiers check, book plane ticket for next day, close the deal, slap an Expedition Portal sticker on the rear window and point her towards home (with a few stops inbetweem), yep that would work! Somone here should really pick this up.

[adventureduo]

Dang, does he want a expedition ready 80 series?

Too bad it can't be me.

[Alaska Mike]

I have a solution.
If everyone on ExPo kicks in $5, I will fly down there and purchase the vehicle and drive it back to Alaska where it will undergo an extensive, 15 year series of upgrades and ops checks. After this period is up, I pass it onto the next member on the list and they use it for a while.

I think this is the only fair way to do it.

When I drove my Dormobile from California to New York it took me 5 days going out (I was in a rush) and 3-1/2 weeks coming back. With just a stop or two on the way home ;)

[seriessearcher]

I just hope my dormie looks that nice one day.

I pick up the AZ donor truck in 3 weeks to place under the rust bucket I have now.

Who was that TeriAnn? I probably know him or have spoken with him via mendo list. Speaking of Mendo, are you going this year?

I don't know. Except for an exhaust leak my rig is ready to go right now, but money is very tight and the Mendo trails are not the kind I really like to travel.

Usually when I go to that meet it is to be a lounge lizard and relax in camp throughout the day and not to go out on the trails. Right now the money I would spend in fuel strikes me as being better used to try and maintain a roof over my head. :(

[grahamfitter]

This is too close to me for comfort. The voices inside my head are getting louder. La la la la not listening la la la la...

Cheers,

We were both there last year. Granny is an old friend of mine. When I travel in his direction I try to schedule things to spend an evening visiting & to overnight with the Dormie in his side yard. He & his wife are always excellent company.
