I was just curious why you loved your M715 so much. I did not know there was such a following until I finally got mine. We have used them on the ranch for about 15 years. It was my "daily driver" for many years, then we got some newer trucks and it was demoted to winter feeding duty. Then it was put in the boneyard to support the other M715 we still use. As a kid my friends and I used to play in the mountains in them. I also taught my youngest sister to drive in this M-715, and I don't know how many elk I have hauled home in it. I plan on keeping it a long time. My wife is even starting to like it. Last weekend it was her idea to "lets take the jeep out." She is really going to like it once it has a 400hp cummins in it I guess it has a sentimental value to me.
