Wrangler to a disco lol
jeeps are cool but everybody has one
discos are cooler but they are not reliable if you don’t know what your doing
discos can make you their bitch
they are like a diva require attention and lots of it
did you know about the expensive drinks they require
your wrangler likes beer discos like martinis
but dam they look good

Discos are for people that need that "their life was a complete loss or failure" feeling.

04's are far from the most reliable, but they are a hell of allot more fun than a jeep, when they aren't broken.

It's about loving a vehicle, not so much about affordability or reliability. If we wanted that we'd be driving Hyundai's.

i thought it was for the love of off-roading and going anywhere and everywhere a Jeep can’t go

Ain't that the truth....

Worth checking out I'd think.

I bought Myrtle for $7000 from Jay at their shop in Alpharetta. Some say that was pricey but I knew what I specifically wanted for my Disco... low mileage, west/southwest coast kept, V8, 2001, A/C, Black and they found it along with having a winch, steel bumpers and rock sliders. I already knew what I was getting myself into since owning 2 RHD Disco's in the past.

I have to question the validity of the $24K cost and for what. Is that correct? $2.4K maybe?
The guys I dealt with at Atlanta On Wheels were very knowledgeable about Land Rovers and were trustworthy to me.

EDIT: I see the prices now on their website. JEEZ!!!!!! I'm in the wrong business!
