This Bad Boy will ring a bell with Gabers and the Girls. Gabe's first car, she was. We called 'er "Peej Sr." She was the oldest of all the family jeeps.
After Robert purchased Peej from Gabe, his favorite thing was to pick the girls up at school. The ceiling liner was falling around their head and there was a hole in the back seat floor that I always feared one of the kids would fall through, never to be seen again. She was a doozy! But by George, Robert loved this car. He was always so proud to be the only one that could plow through the snow drifts in a SD mid-winter blizzard and make it home from work.
It was painful to see Peej parked after Robert went Home. Just the sight of her made me sad. So I was thrilled when my Good Neighbor, Larry, said that his son needed a hunting vehicle in northern Minnesota. Out of sight was fine with me.
This year Larry's son camo-ed the Beast so she looks better than ever. There will be no sneaking up on the deer in this camouflaged vehicle. Too funny! Robert would be tickled.
The Good Neighbors call Peej Sr "Ol Yeller." Here's what Larry wrote:
Here are a couple pictures of “Ol’ Yeller” aka “Peej Sr.” The Pride of the North Country.

Priceless

You could say the mission of Ol Yeller hasn't changed. Instead of going for your dears it is going for the deer in the woods. And he does it with PRIDE!!!
hahahahhaa Exactly right, Good Neighbor!
Wow, the ol' Jeep looks better than ever tucked back in those hardwoods. I sure do have a lot of memories in that tank. Thanks for tha Jeep update, mom.
