Cause with all the mods not many can figure out how to drive it ,
Cause the local Polize have labled it a rolling meth lab, for the paint job.
Cause anually hauls the family to Moab 14 hrs away , wheels like a demon and gets me home again without breakage ( a trick my 40 will never learn ).
Cause at 23 mpg i cant afford to drive my other rigs .
Cause the heated seats feel good when its a brisk 60 outside in LA .
Cause I still get Wood when i see the rear window go up and down .
Cause the spring over leans so far over on a fwy onramp that all the passengers scream.
Cause i have dented the Quarterpannels Bad and i dont care .
Cause the envigorating search for parts, that are allwayse rusted as bad as mine haunts me when i sleep.
Cause the local Punks think im cool .
Cause I cant stop thinking about what to fix next ( the list is long ))
Cause its an IRON PIG

the leaning around corners is great! i have actually watched folks jaws drop as i come round a corner with some velocity.
Henestly 23 is better than me most of the time. And full time 4WD to boot, who would have thought!

Cause it's an extension of my individuality, something that modern auto's just can't provide.
Cause no one really seems to know what it is, yet I get a good chuckle when someone says it's "nice"!
Cause it's got a look that says it's serious about buisness, the buisness of 4-xing.
Cause I can scratch the she-yit out of it while going where I want to get to, and I don't have to worry about depreciation.
Cause I can use it as a platrorm for fabrication experiments.
Cause it's one of the few vehicles I can (and want) get to know everything about, front to back, top to bottom.
Cause I'll never have to worry about not having something that needs to be done.
Cause whatever needs to be done will be done by me, and I get to have that little bit of satisfaction knowing I'm the one who did the work and fixed it.
Cause it's unique and uncommon, and you'll most likely be the only one driving a Pig on any trail system at any given time, unless you were prearranged to meet.
What's the only thing more rare than one Pig on a trail? Two Pigs on a trail.
Well, maybe a Unimog is more rare in the US.
Cause I can pack all my crap in it, and even sleep in it if I want, or on it, on the roof rack.
Cause I prefer function over form (with vehicles that is).

Because I am a pig myself, we just go together well.
Because when I bought it, it had been sitting almost over a year. I put some fresh fuel, some air in the tires, checked the fluid levels and drove it 75 miles in Denver Traffic. It has taken abuse and rus great. It has floorboard, unlike my 40 did. It has heat, unlike my 40. Elwood the beast that won't stop.
Because I can slap three dogs, three people, and an ice chest in it.
Because I can pull out jeeps and fords.
Because on a wheeling trip it is the only vehicle to come back everytime, on its own power.
Because I like the sound of my bumper peeling off on rocks.
Because it is so loud I don't have to listen to backseat drivers.
Because it tips at such an extreme angle and always stays on at least 2 wheels.
Because any time it breaks, it still drives anyways.
Because yuppies are afraid of it.
Because punks like it (Evan, your not the only one that gets thumbs up from punks).
Because my brother says I look like one of the mountain people when I drive it.
Because it drives over inanimate objects.
