Yes Sir...this year it became my daily driver...and it is awesome.

I purchased it new back in 2003 (DII SE7) and until this year it was just a week-end vehicle.

Then we retired my daily driver and bought a RR HSE as week-end vehicle and now the Disco has become my daily driver.

I really get a kick out of the Disco. It is a unique truck and if maintained is a very reliable truck.

I wish it was MOAB, but I guess it wouldn't have all the trees in the backround.

The pic is from Livingston, KY last Sunday.

Lot's of rock (sandstone).

Had such a great time, I think we are goning back really soon.

I'd love to go to MOAB, but I'm still fairly new to all this and need some more seat time before attempting something like that. This is also one of the reasons I did not go to MAR this year. Probably next year though.

Peace,

Dan

96 Disco SE ...I got mine in August of 04 with 70-something K...currently 140k and no mechanical problems (electrical on the other hand, is a whole other story..lol)...it gets off-roaded on a Bi-Weekly to Monthly basis...only damage is a dangling exhaust system from the Y-pipe back and aesthetics like..loose grille, custome pin-striping, and all that comes with age.
