I was checking some stats tonight and learned that readers from the country of Colombia constitute one of the largest blocks of readers of eWillys outside the US. So, in solidarity, I thought a few Yipao videos were in order 🙂

Here’s a Nice Story About Owning Flatties

• CATEGORIES: Features This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Here’s a guy (I couldn’t find a name) who has traveled and lived in several countries.  He’s owned a variety of jeeps.  He saw his first jeep in Spain, owned his first jeep in Colombia, and has enjoyed them ever since.  He recently finished restoring a CJ-3A, though the link no longer works.

You can read his whole story here.
