Ferrari Mailing List: Fwd: What Should I Buy -- CONTINUED

[red5hilser (red5hilser]

Hey Dr. Steve: When Tom Reynolds and I lived in Southern Arizona, one Saturday 
we toured the wine country down there around Ft. Huachuca in our Dino gt4s.? As 
you know, its beautiful grass-land rolling hills interspaced with vinyards, and 
more importantly Tasting Rooms. Poor Tom was a stickler for times, but I 
thought, what the hell, it must be 5 pm somewhere in the world! He told me that 
'he likes to watch.' <g>

Anyway, the perfect vehicle for off-road down there was my Type 181 Kubelwagen. 
I explored the beautiful Cochise Stronghold in the Dragoon Mountains and the 
Chirachuas, which rise to 9,750 feet, where we went off-road camping many 
weekends. Maybe instead of the G-wagen, a Kubelgagen might be the answer. They 
have?the ultra low gear Kombi transmission and with the locked rear-end, I 
never got stuck. What a blast with the top?down and?the windshield folded, 
following some goat trail @ 7,000 ft. looking for a campsite.
