I know, I know. It's hard for me. I really dig Clifford, but we just have too many rigs right now for 2 drivers. I'll be using the Toy mini to handle DD duties as well as chore work. The 40 will be for wheeling and just being a big toy. The Dodge handles all the heavy duty responsibilities. That leaves the wife and her 4runner. Really, the 60 doesn't get driven much.....
Clifford needs to go to a good home, someone who will wheel him the way he wants to be wheeled. Someone to love him and appreciate him. Awwwww, fawk, I'm getting all sentimental......
Sheeeeeeeeeet, if you were to do all those mods yourself, you'd spend well into the $25K-$30K range. Trust me, I know.
Don't tell my wife.

i'm looking for a new dd. the 80 was just too nice. what's the interior like? pics? what kind of mileage you gettin? you mentioned doing a sr in the future, is this for more lift? or to correct a caster problem? how hard do you think it would be to correct the wiring problems? i have a john deere four wheeler (http://www.deere.com/en_US/ProductC...ets.ProdCatProduct?pNbr=9720M&tM=HO&link=enav) i could use as a partial trade.

I was doing the SR for more lift, to run 35's/36's. 35's are very close to fitting now, I just wanted more clearance. I think the wiring problem would be an easy fix, but I don't know for sure. In all honesty, it's no big deal to me, I was just 'disclosing'. I think it would be fairly easy to route a new wire. I'm getting 10-12 mpg with all the stop-n-go I do in town. That's a nice JD (re-badged Bombardier/CanAm), I'd be interested. Here's some pics of the interior of the 60. The wooden center console has been replace with a Tuffy Console. The interior is in surprisingly good shape. The rear seat holds 3 and is deep enough for a car seat. Oh yeah, dual yellow top Optimas and new Flowmaster muffler that sounds great!
Nice rig. Did you do the cargo panels yourself?
Here's a stupid question for you, because I know anyone that buys your beast will buy it for it's off road capability not it's economical value, but just out of curiosity how does it do as for miles per gallon? Also, how is the frame, and body? Any rust? Thanks, by the way, SWEEEEET ride. Thanks again -Nick

Good questions, Nick. It gets between 12/15 mpg. The frame and body are in great shape. Here's the only rust on the body. First pic is of the rear gate/hatch, 2nd is above the pass taillight. Glad you like it. It's pretty bad ass off road, but it's sweet on road, too.

Is there a build-up thread on this anywhere, or a place to see some more pics?
nice looking rig
I'm thinking on it.
No build thread I know of. I bought it this way from freightdog, who bought it mostly built from another guy in Colorado. Shoot me a PM with your email and what pics you want and I'll get them to you. Thanks!
