Why JEEP?
Wife and I seem to see more Jeeps as toads than anything else. Is there something special about the Jeep as a toad?

Our previous dinghy was a Grand Cherokee Overland. All the bells & whistles. Off-road vehicle of the year when I bought it.,,

... We now tow a 4wd Honda CR-V. This soft road vehicle will not go where my Jeep could, but it takes me anywhere I ever go. Bumping 75k with not a single issue. And resale? Compare the two.
For my area, craigslist prices for a 1999 Honda CRV $3500 with highest price $5,000. (example:

For a 1999 Jeep Wrangler average pricing is $6,000. With a high of $9500 (example:

However, in fairness, the 1999 Grand Cherokee that showed up in my search was $3999. :)
If you never go where you need to get there in a Jeep Wrangler then I can see buying a CRV. But I've had my Wrangler where I was pretty sure someone would have to helicopter me out and it got me back. We were kinda dirty, though.
