For $500, You Could Buy This Hole Jeep
For $500, You Could Buy This Hole Jeep-January 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:10:11

The price limit for the venerated racing series known as the 24 Heures du LeMons is five Benjamins. That doesn't allow for the accouterments that define a team's theme, however today's Jeep already has that covered. But is that LeMons-worthy price still driller killer?

may have been plum full of zukunft- what with all the innovative technologies thrown its way - but that zukunft is now in the vergangenheit, albeit not sufficiently so to make the little illegal alien worth the kind of scratch its present custodian is asking. That was the opinion of 68% of you, who thought the car's price should drop faster than its doors.

In German, Zukunft means future, and that's what the Z in BMW's sports cars points to.…

Today, let's get a little screwy.

It's a rare instance when we have a candidate here with so unique a purpose as this . The thing of it is, while not presently running, and in fact a prime candidate for having a tree growing through it, this mean green machine is also a strong contender for a winning LeMons entry. Why, you might ask? Well, there's its $500 price tag, and the fact that any competitor that sees those two big screws bearing down on them in the rear-view will invariably get out of the way.

Sure, it's presently a little more Bob the Builder than Mad Max, but the ad claims that with the addition of both starter and air in the tires this meadow muffin will once again be both rolling and post hole accommodating. That leaves a hell of a lot of leeway in prepping for that most noble of competitions, the lunacy that is LeMons.

Or, just maybe you'd want to employ it for its original raison d'être, impressing the ladies. Hello girls, what your sign? Anyone interested in a massive screwing? Of course should that not be your bag then it should still be good at drilling holes in the actual sense rather than just with the metaphorical lothario meaning.

Having a rolling tool for quickly creating an impromptu long drop will mean you can bury your scat wherever you go, just like the cat! And I mean who wouldn't want that? Also, as it's just shy of a backhoe in the manly tools department, owning it would be like getting double coupons on extra strength testosterone.

Of course it's not all sex and glory here, there are some issues that need to be addressed. A prime one is the lack of windshield wipers. That might not seem so bad in light of the drought currently affecting much of the nation, but the fact that the wipers attach to the Windshield frame does bring to light the fact that this Jeep lacks a windshield too. No big deal that, they bolt right on and are available in plentiful stock at any regional Jeep Meet, in a multitude of colors.

Then there's the lack of sealed beams populating the two big holes on either side of the iconic Jeep grille. That'll make nighttime driving a little more of an adventure until you can get to Pep Boys, but their dead eye stare does contribute to the truck's crazy satan contenance.

Okay, so this is a Jeep full of possibilities. They say the world is your oyster and if that's so then this Drill Sargent Jeep is a double shooter of the slimy mollusks with a pearl necklace thrown in for good measure. And it's $500. Even if you have no interest in campaigning LeMons in so amazing a chariot, nor finally undertaking that hole to China you promised yourself at eight years of age, then at the very least it's worth more than that in scrap, right?

What do you think, is the agrarian aggressor seemingly worth peeling off five C-notes? Or, is that just the start of the hole buying it would dig you?

You decide!

or go if the ad disappears.

H/T to Seymour_aussie for the hookup!

At $6,900, Does This 1989 Ford Taurus Mean The SHO Must Go On?
At $6,900, Does This 1989 Ford Taurus Mean The SHO Must Go On?
The seller of today’s describes it as being in ‘unbelievable condition’ and the pictures prove that out. Let’s see if this amazingly clean hot Taurus’s price is also outside the realms of believability. Yesterday’s was, to use basketball parlance, a slam dunk. Its poor paint couldn’t overwhelm its inherent...

At $1,700, Could This Somewhat Rough 1998 Volvo V70 Still Make A Good ‘R’-gument?
When it comes to cars, you don’t have to be pretty if you’re pretty damn quick. Today’s V70R is aesthetically challenged but still looks like it’s got some get up and go left in it. Let’s see if this sporty wagon’s price ensures it will sell fast too. Canada...

At $5,500 Canadian, Could You Find Common Ground With This Custom 1985 Chevy S10 Pickup?
Today’s Chevy S10 is a border-spanning custom that could very well bring Canada and the U.S. closer together. Let’s see if it also comes with just as diplomatic a price tag. Italy has been an auto-producing nation for almost 120 years. The country’s first series-production car, the 1899 Fiat...

I hadn’t been in an Audi in a long time when I climbed into the . To be honest, I wasn’t expecting to like it. The severe styling of these cars had me imagining a soulless, surgical driving experience. But by the time I got out, for a second there,...
