Assuming you don't drive Jeep all the time, what else do you use for wheels? I drive on 2 wheels as much as possible. An old Moto Guzzi and an Indian Chieftain. I cannot live without a disgruntled work truck, and my 97 bone stock F250 with the 460 is my go to four wheeler. I threw the cap away a long time ago, but otherwise the truck is unchanged. I keep it utterly tip top and it only has 100K on the clock. Runs and drives like new, doubt there is a more thoroughly maintained truck than this one. Ford truck guys drool over it and I get requests to sell absolutely every time I go anywhere with it. Rides rough as hell unless you have a half ton or more in the back and pulls a horse trailer like nothing at all. Except for fuel economy, those 460's were great engines. Sits high from the factory and it really needs the dual gas tanks. I am an oddball that likes regular cabs. As I only visit America once or twice a year, these rigs will stay pristine for a long time.

My daily driver is a Dodge 1500 ecodiesel. I will take the jeep to work once or twice a week if it going to be warm.
Fun fact. The truck got better mileage towing the jeep down to Southern California then the jeep gets on the best of days :risas3:
 
We've got a 2015 Subaru Outback and a 2017 Indian Scout.
Those Indian Scouts are an utter blast. I rented one and whipped the shite out of it. It took everything I threw at it and begged for more. A classy screamer. I haven't ruled one out.

I grew up riding sport bikes. Ducatis, Aprilias, you name it. First time I rode a Scout I was blown away. It looks like a cruiser, but it handles and performs like a sport bike! I absolutely love mine, it's such a blast to ride.

The Chieftain is like a tank with a Hadron Collider as a powerplant.
 
'03 Lincoln Town Car with '06 Mustang GT rims and slightly taller tires than stock to better fill out the wheel wells. Soon to get the dual exhaust modified to give it a throatier tone. After that, I'll slap on an "I Love Bingo!" bumper sticker, and I'll be ready to cruise the casinos! :squezer:

13 Silverado Z71 w/ 65k miles. When I still had my Harley, I rode all year as long as it wasn't pouring rain or snow on the roads. Kept the miles off the truck. Sold the Harley and bought the Jeep, can't put a car seat on a Harley.

My 06 Honda VTX 1300R in the Late Spring/Summer/Early Fall months. I am really hoping to retire the TJ as a DD this fall. Probably next Spring though...

She's paid off, gets 44mpg, and costs me less than $250 a year for both full coverage insurance and registration.
