They've got new colors this year for their off-road models. I'm hoping to lease a midnight blue one this year, or a gray as my second choice. I have a black one now, but black is so boring.

The Ritchey is nice too.
And yeah the Ritchey looks nice. So does mine...

But people don't actually drive them off road. The horror!!
My sister had a white Bronco to match the one OJ was riding in. We lived off road at the time, and when we suggested taking it further off road, their heads began to spin.Their palms sweated. Their jaws dropped open and they couldn't speak. The subject was dropped.
Her husband currently has an FJ Cruiser.
Same.

Love the 4 Runners, and have always wanted one.
Took the Jeep off-road yesterday with two Domane strapped to the back. It was like being at Moab.

The Ritchey is nice too.
I’ve always felt deprived and like I was missing something in my life. But, it was out of my hands.

There's always the dream of a Sprinter, but people always want too much money for 'em.

Does this look like a water treatment place? That's what Google suggests (if the address is correct). There's no signs. It's suspicious.
