The author, a self-proclaimed “diehard car person,” has purchased a 1992 Jeep Comanche after flying to Boise, Idaho. Despite having a busy life with a family and multiple vehicles, the author couldn’t resist the charms of this particular truck. As a car enthusiast, they have a history of owning multiple vehicles, including 14 cars at one point, but have since had to scale back due to time constraints.
The author’s mind is “tortured” by the numerous amazing cars available, making it difficult to decide which ones to own. However, they have recently decided to consolidate their fleet and are hoping the Comanche will replace three of their current vehicles: a Jeep J10, a Chevy K1500, and a 1992 Jeep XJ. The Comanche’s simplicity, reliability, and capability have drawn the author in, and they appreciate its unassuming personality.
The author believes that cars have the power to bring people together and evoke strong emotions. They love the way cars make them feel, whether driving, looking at, or fixing them. The Comanche, in particular, has a certain charm that has captured the author’s heart. Its compact size, 7’4″ bed, and friendly demeanor make it an attractive addition to their fleet.
The author acknowledges that owning multiple vehicles may not be practical, but they can’t help their passion for cars. They plan to drive the Comanche from Boise to Los Angeles and will keep their readers updated on their experience. Initial impressions of the truck are overwhelmingly positive, and the author is excited to see if it will become a permanent fixture in their fleet.
The author’s fleet, if the Comanche replaces the intended vehicles, would consist of five cars: the 1992 Jeep Comanche, a 1994 Jeep ZJ 5spd, a 1991 Jeep YJ, a 1966 Mustang, and a 2001 BMW i3S. While this may seem excessive, the author justifies it by saying that each car brings them joy and serves a specific purpose. The Comanche, with its unique blend of capability and charm, may just become the author’s new favorite vehicle.
