Default Jeeps in Colorado!

I just spent a week out in Breckenridge, CO skiing with a group of friends from college. This was my first trip there since I was 10 when my dad and I went on a big road trip. I noticed driving around that Colorado is Jeep country! Everyone out there seems to have one... if they're not driving one, there's one in the driveway.

Anyway, it made me think even harder about moving out there. I don't know what I want to do... I really loved it out there.

to all the Colorado Jeepers. Nice country out there!!!

There's no doubt Colorado is Jeep country. We went to Silverton and Lake City on the Engineer Pass road and it seems like 95% of the vehicles we saw were Jeeps. And most folks waved too!!! If Jackson Hole, Wyoming, didn't exist, I would be living in Colorado. I have the best of both worlds, I live in Jackson and vacation in Colorado & Utah. Life is good!

I worked at a Jeep dealership briefly, several years ago. Stats showed more Jeeps were sold in Colorado than anywhere else in the world. Arizona is #2

Love Colorado, have been there numerous times with the Jeeps, and am laying plans to move there once I'm done with school. There is a reason they call them "Jeep trails" out there.

I'm probably moving to the Denver area in late August. I can't wait.

My wife is all about moving out there. Just not sure I want to leave the family here in CNY. When its time for kids, we won't have a babysitter like we would now.

We don't have kids and my fiance is in the final stages of her PhD program and she was offered an internship in Aurora. I'll have to give up a pretty good job that I have here, but I think it'd be worth it since we've both always wanted to live out there. It will be tough leaving family and friends behind, but we can always move back...

The good thing is your staying in the National League. Braves come to visit several times a year.....
