Title: Seen a eagle today other then mine
Post by: eagleman on August 07, 2012, 10:03:57 PM
Went to our local jeep dealer today in hopes of finding some air check valves and maybe some new air lines.Well thats a whole different story but maybe,we'll see. Anyway I went past a new dentist office that just opened a few months ago and sitting in the parking lot was a eagle wagon. A lady was sitting in it so I thought lets go back and talk to her. Turns out to be a 83 and was pretty raged out but never the less still running. Talked to her for a little while said her husband traded a old motorhome for it about ten years ago but now its falling apart. I ask her how many miles were on it and she said I have no idea and that after three hundred thousand miles the milage thing quit working.The interior was full of all kinds of junk and to be honest it had a rather strange odor as well. I could smell it just standing by the window so I didn't hang around all that long but now I know there is at least one other eagle in this town. She did say she drives it about twenty to thirty miles a day and gets around twenty miles a gallon. I thought to myself thats pretty good I'd be happy with that.
