Body Damage is Cool
Lots of travel over the past 5 weeks to places like Daegu, So. Korea, Kuala Lumpur, Malasia., Singapore, Jakarta, Indonesia ( I hate it. Sorry) The island of Bali, Indonesia ( I love it, but Cancun is closer). Sitting on a flight home now from El Paso, TX / Juarez, MX. Scanned Craigslist daily in El Paso hoping to find a rust free sample gen 2.5. None to be had this trip. Hopefully home for a while now. Wife said the Gen 3 needed to be jump started this morning, and the old Chrysler mini van my daughter drives has the windshield wipers stuck in the up position.

Sorry, nope. 1998 to 2000. There was a point in time I wanted a Gen 2. But they are getting too old for a DD now. If I decided someday to sell my Gen 1, then I would consider a Gen 2 for a project expedition vehicle. Need to find something to buy, hopp in and drive home.

Hi Mongo thanks for the info. By the way, these links are all Sports, and I think San Francisco to Milwaukee would be too long of a drive. I am looking for a Gen 2.5 Montero Endeavour ( aka blister fender)
