Probably a dumb question, but....
 
While browsing through online classifieds and EBay, I see the vast majority
of Jeeps for sale in the area from New York to Pennsylvania. It's probably a
3 or 4-1 ratio to the rest of the USA. Any idea why there are so many Jeep
owners in the region? Just curious.

Well, I live between NY and PA. I would guess that around here folks change
their cars more often, not ever being satisfied with what they have and
moving on to something next. There is a lot of money around these parts and
this enables these folks to do this.

Chris,
I had noticed that also. Last year when looking to buy a TJ it seemed like
every one I pulled up on ebay was in New York.

I don't know the reason...

Re: Probably a dumb question, but....
 
It's cause of all the mountains and snow that so many people own Jeeps in New
York.

All of NY state loves Jeeps. It's the 4 Wheel Drive that we prefer. And
nothing looks better than Jeeps. Have you even been through an upstate New
York winter.... or even worse live in New York closer to the Great Lakes and
it snows every day from November 1st to January 5th, then the lakes freeze and
the lake effect snows stop, but then the Nor'Easters hit, then lakes melt and
it snows everyday from Feburary 15th to April 5th. NO KIDDING! It doesn't
stop snowing. It just doesn't stop. And we don't shut down schools or
businesses unless it's over 10 inches of snow in a 6 hour period. So we have
to drive in it.

But when the warmer weather hits we head for the Adirondack Mountains. And
what's better to camp in than a Jeep? What's better at crossing stream beds
than a Jeep?

Then it's vacation time and we have to pack up the whole family and head for
the cape and islands (Cape Cod), or another New England beach. And what's
better at packing a whole family in for a week's vacation and then being able
to drive on the beach as well?

JEEP!

Rust belt man....

They don't last long looking good. When the rot shows, the price has to
drop radically...

Folks dump them then and buy another new one.

LOL, actually I should have been more specific. I look for CJs and YJs, and
it seems that most of them on EBay are from the NE. There are loads of GCs
here, but that's not what I want. I'll find one eventually, just gotta keep
lookin.
